  1. We do not limit the number of times you can download within the 180 days. Sorry for the boldface text but I needed to counter boldface misinformation. Our support team also understands when bad things happen to those who have done their best to back up as recommended. Similar to how some companies with time or frequency limits will consider cases made to them when such bad things happen and/or the use case mentioned by Fleer above.
  2. IK Product Manager is the simple single procedure for which you're asking. You don't need to touch Authorization Manager (it's mainly for legacy purposes) or Custom Shop at all to install and authorize AmpliTube 5 (the current version, thus 4 might need any legacy tools as mentioned). Custom Shop is there for trying/buying of gear purposes. All you need to do is use IK Product Manager to install and authorize your AmpliTube 5 and other products. If you have an issue where that is not happening, the IK Support team would be happy to assist you to find out what's going on. And of course you need to install and authorize on a second system. It isn't a dongle, so you'll need to use IK Product Manager to do so on the second system. Lindsey Buckingham was a surprise to see as a MESA recto user for me.
  3. People also tend to be surprised (with the real amp, and the virtual equivalent) of the clean headroom in the rectifiers too. But I love the non-rectos in this collection quite a lot, I'd say I prefer those overall for myself too.
  4. Yes, it qualifies because the MSRP is over 99.99... If you already have IK products 99.99+ you can just crossgrade to the full version if that's what you want. I must not have explained clearly because if someone already paid 99.99 they definitely did pay more than if you pay 39.99 for a product that qualifies as a product worth 99.99+ and then crossgrade. Basically, it would only apply if this is your first IK product. Otherwise, crossgrading directly based on what you already have would be the more cost effective option. Buying a smaller version or gear piecemeal/a la carte is always going to have pros and cons vs buying full/MAX versions at once. I'm saying that I'll see if there's any option to give a special offer to people who participated in this promotion, similar to those with a bit of "buyer's remorse" who bought a version of AmpliTube 5 that wasn't the MAX version but ended up wanting MAX after they started using AT5 in earnest. We've been able to help accommodate those folks in some ways if they contact IK Support. If you own Total Studio 2 MAX and want MODO DRUMS (full) you might want to consider what else you'd get with Total Studio 3 MAX as that would end up at 299.99 using MAXgrade and the $200 coupon. As always, it depends on what you really want - you may not need the rest of the products you'd end up with in that case for the extra $100.
  5. You'd qualify for the crossgrade which, combined with the 39.99 sale price in this promotion would be less than the full MODO DRUM. I'll put in a request for a special offer to those who participated in this promotion who would like to upgrade (similar to what our team has been able to offer those who purchased AmpliTube 5 but then realized they really wanted AT5 MAX).
  6. I already apologized for digging in the dirt in that TS3 thread after basically being called mentally deficient as I shouldn't have responded in kind. You continue to have a beef with me and IK and I've offered to speak about that one-to-one but I haven't heard from you. Stop being vague, be direct as a mod requested - I'm sorry if someone not bending to your vague (or rare direct) commentary doesn't work for you. You and a few others have made it clear that you don't feel I'm welcome here when I don't break any rules. I was going to take that as a cue to leave, but it isn't great for the many others who aren't taking every opportunity to jab at me and IK while ignoring offers to help by speaking with you directly. There's an ignore function on this forum that you can use if you don't like seeing my posts. Otherwise if I've broken rules, you can report posts and mods will take care. I've never been "protected", that's frankly a silly accusation.
  7. Even though I see there's some doubling down, I still stick by my apology for contributing to the opposite of the Dude-like vibe. To help make up for it, I will hint at another move officially done on purpose since I just changed prices for the same reason the video and pages for TS3 were opened so something is also going on promo announced tomorrow. What it is is coded in my message. But seriously. Sorry, I shouldn't dig in the dirt. I think many will be happy with the additional savings on TS3 when the announcement is made (basically when the news is up and emails will be sent but the news will be visible before most get emails) so I'm glad to have mentioned that here and have not done so elsewhere.
  8. And in the other direction too, so please include me in that statement. Regardless of what type of post I was responding to I also did not contribute to the generally positive (and might I say normally Dude-like) spirit either. My apologies for dragging.
  9. When you are basically called mentally deficient, it isn't "badge flashing" it's responding/rebutting. I see we'll get the pile on happening now... I know some here aren't fans, so please do have at it. Or message me (I'll get a notification in my email) and I'd be happy to try to sort out whatever issue you do have with IK.
  10. I also meant to mention yes the video alert and other things that slipped past wanting to open in time for the Asian market we serve (whilst having worldwide materials that would show) have been taken care of as far as "WHY?" internally. Hope that's transparent enough to show that it's clear that having the additional info tomorrow morning was - to be kind - less than optimal.
  11. But hey, see my edit above. I think I'm pretty much done. The video should have been unlisted in my opinion so the alerts wouldn't go out, but whatever I'm sure you'll try to make sure someone here feels stupid for that too. Do you want some more inside info to use against IK employees?
  12. The official announcement is tomorrow. Once the full PR, news, etc rolls out you will be able to see the additional discounts for those who purchased TS2 MAX and other products at that time. There will be an auto-applied coupon based on what you have, more information tomorrow. But thanks for punching low, some of you here. I'm Digital Marketing Manager here, had a great GPA and a double major at Berklee, and am not an idiot but thanks for taking shots. Makes me really want to post information and try to help... And we're not near closing our doors, quite the opposite. Almost 25 years and growing steadily. But yeah, we suck.
  13. Note that if you are filtering presets and gear, there are some presets that will have gear outside of AmpliTube 5 CS so you won't see those if you are filtering them out.
  14. Yes, that promotion is supposed to be done but I let it go for a bit longer. You can thank Dr Brian May since he posted this today: https://www.instagram.com/p/CLt5W0Kh_01/ Figured people would enjoy the discount today if they just heard about his collection from his post.
  15. They are being released later. From the link: "We've hooked up with iconic guitar legends Joe Satriani, Gus G, Marty Friedman and Slash to roll out brand-new artist presets for AmpliTube 5 over the coming weeks." The Soldano SLO-100 was included in AmpliTube 4 MAX so yes you already had it from there.
  16. With my keyboard skills compared to some, I would even need to "practice, practice, practice" to get the Uber/taxi to my door
  17. I was kidding, of course. I'm sure you can get to Carnegie Hall via that method from the old quip I'm not a keyboard player but do OK and then I watch someone like a certain artist that went to Juilliard when he was NINE years old and want to cry a little bit.
  18. You can make the sounds, yes. Play like? I don't know you that well but if I were a betting man...
  19. Yes, he did our NAMM presentation as well as the interview with the incredible folks from SSI (whose chip is used for one of the UNO Synth Pro's filters). Erik's presentation for NAMM 2021: His interview with SSI founders Dave Rossum and Dan Parks:
  20. We aren't making clones, you're off on that sorry. UNO Synth is acclaimed for what it is not what it emulates while UNO Synth Pro can sound like many synths it absolutely has a sound of its own. Check out this video for more of how it sounds, and I'm sorry that my comment may have hit a bit too close to home for you - do you work at the camp or for the U-man? Or just a fan of clones and companies that are in the headlines for human rights violations and such?
  21. Erik Norlander just demonstrated UNO Synth Pro. Can catch the replay on our YouTube channel and info on upcoming events/etc on our NAMM 2021 page. Edit - might as well post the link to Erik's here since I know at least Mr Fleer will be interested:
  22. The larger version has a Fatar bed with full size semi-weighted keys, metal housing, and is capable of creating sounds like a ton of sought-after analog synths while also having its own personality. This isn't some one-hit clone made by boot camp workers in China, it's a quality analog synth with a ton of value made in Italy and we're still working with Soundmachines which is a huge deal too. Check out the Made in Italy video for more on that front (below) and there's a Luca Zabbini performance that really shows what UNO Synth Pro can achieve
  23. Note that you can still save up to 75% off Total Studio 2 MAX through January 4th, 2021 (extended so people have a little more leeway to deal with the new year/holidays/etc).
  24. Syntronik is sampled oscillators, modeled filters.
  25. Z840 workstation. Well that's at least how I get inspiration Thank you for the kind words, and happy new year and here's to another good year for you and everybody here.
