Peter - IK Multimedia

Thanks! I just mentioned Jamie Humphries who did the second longer video, he did such a great job with that video and all of the audio demos.

Great! It really is incredible. I've been playing with it for a while, before the presets were available and it wasn't hard to recreate Brian's tone even without them - and you can get some non-Queen tones that are really great too. We worked directly with Brian on this project, but also worth noting the hard work and attention of Jamie Humphries who did the audio demos and worked on the presets as well. He has performed many a time with Brian as well as being the original main guitarist for the We Will Rock You musical. He's obviously an expert on Queen tone as well as Brian's style of playing. Of course, but alas we cannot give away brand new products for free

I read that in full-on William Shatner glory. INSPIRATIONAL. (still not gonna happen though)

Dammit Fleer, I'm a UIKG not a miracle worker!

That's true and you actually reminded me that the remake/reboot actually exists. Most definitely meant the original The music was used quite well as you point out. Of course there was plenty of cheese in there too, I especially enjoyed Rainn Wilson's (Dwight from The Office US) brief appearance. I took my daughter to a panel at a local con once with Hollie Marie Combs and Shannen Doherty. Was fun.

Great points all around. I have to say AMEN to the Quad Series comment specifically. And a deep and sincere thank you for that last comment.

I really don't want to admit that I watched the show a bit more than I would have expected I would, but... Hey the theme was really good! And I hope the hint using that video was as obvious as our teaser.

Cliff 'em all! I mean get em all... Let Cliff (RIP) sort 'em out

By the way, this just popped into my head for some reason

You'll see... I've pushed for Rockman emulations at least, and for a while. Let's see if I can't get some at least maybe into AT5 You won't for the Brian May presets included. We've made sure additional gear is available in AmpliTube CS (free version) for those that buy only the collection to cover this.

I'll throw in a vote for the 80 as well. They're all great in their own right, and the two mentioned so are definitely awesome choices.

Yes! Glad you noticed. Well, you have a right to be sad that there are no more choices - it is at least to some extent sad, of course. It's not entirely "whacked" but I see your point. It is great that all participants are helping each other whether they can use all upcoming (hopefully soon) seven free choices, which in turn helps others who join, who then help others, and so on and so forth. Though I don't want to pay more taxes but do want to make more money Thanks! I did what I could, but I'm not solely responsible. I'll pass along the kudos and also my suggestions as to what happens when we hit THIS tier.

More details will be announced at https://www.ikmultimedia.com/ soon.

We do not plan to add any products to this promotion.

To be transparent, that price really is for the hardware. The software is added as a bonus, but does not truly factor into the price of the unit as it is an enticement/incentive but we really base the price of hardware on what it costs to make it plus a standard margin. There may be retailers that have deals from time to time though. If you hit me up directly, I can take a look at your specific situation though, I'm always willing to think creatively For guitar use especially, AXE I/O would do a better job than the Hi-Z/Instrument inputs on other interfaces. We have users telling us how retailers are recommending AXE I/O over others similar to (or mayyybe exactly) the ones you mention for that reason and that it hangs with them for non-guitar recording as well.

Same here, I may jump in for SF Pro 12 and Acid but the rest isn't as enticing as the previous Magix music bundle was for me. I actually could have used some of that 80s content from the one I bought into for an upcoming game project but I'd have to shell out more than I paid in order to upgrade to the royalty free usage license for those. I am most definitely awaiting the Vegas 16 dealio too, thanks for the reminder that should come soon Larry. Edit - though I really want to get No Man's Sky at 50% off (I see it at 50% off on Humble and Steam) because that huge update just dropped and looks very cool.

I figured but I couldn't let it just slip by

Well, there were some factors that contributed to combining T-RackS and AmpliTube and then adding hardware. I'm glad we can still do a group buy that resonates with people and that hits the goals. Well, we haven't hit ALL of them yet but I have faith that all will go well there even with the risk that people would be like "ugh, why did they add hardware??" - you never know what people might suddenly think is stupid. Though I thought it was brilliant and glad it happened. For sure, thanks for supporting this move. I think we'll have to consider it again for future group buys. I'll just say "all the Cakewalk forum folks hated it but we should do it anyway." Yeah, when that was being bandied about the feeling was that it could be a chance for those that missed out on the preorder/intro deals. Believe it or not, some people don't hear about these things - they don't know you, I guess, Larry Thanks for chiming in, regardless of the fact that your wallet is safe from us. For now.

I'll settle for most. Edit - but only via the special PayPal link I'll PM

It is! They don't down us at all, it is quite positive Here's another they did, this time about the hi-hats:

Here's a video of someone wowed by MODO DRUM (and it apparently wowed some users who have been sending it to us and posting it) even over something so exciting-sounding a topic as MIDI Mapping ):

MODO DRUM is currently not full price, though Sorry to hear you feel that we have nefarious intentions of some sort. Of course we're a business and will sell our products to stay in business, but we're not trying to do anybody dirty by any means. As far as "not winning" I'll have to disagree - even before I was associated with IK Multimedia I knew that IK's plugins were quality and both AmpliTube and T-RackS have improved above and beyond that too. Regardless of what you feel about how we have sales, these are top-shelf plugins. Smaller companies are also making quality plugins but please don't use that as a way to try to distract from the fact that we're making some of the best-sounding plugins on the market. And we're giving people an opportunity to get a ton of them for a great price. Sounds like win/win to me, meaning that people who are getting the deal are the real winners here. We also do not elbow anybody out of anything. I think you'd be surprised by how friendly plugin companies of all sizes are with each other. We like to hang when we can (usually around the trade shows, at least to physically hang) and communicate quite frequently among management, support staff, developers, basically at all levels of company and employee. Plus, just a side note that I feel referring to our group buy and sales by other companies who are also creators of very useful and quality audio tools in such a vulgar fashion is a bit much. Sure, I'll talk you out... wait, no I wont. I'll just agree with this per the above! Tube Comp is an unsung hero. I'm totally on board with the Fulltone, it is a great part of AmpliTube, and the TERC tickles my 80s chorus nostalgia in a way that probably isn't suited for discussing openly in public Good idea on the Wampler extended collection. I'd be itno that too and also agree about the Pinnacle as being a great (but oft-overlooked) AmpliTube effect.

The ability to relocate the samples to a custom directory was sent to the devs who should be adding this to a future release. Note that you can choose a different drive during the installation process which will locate the samples there, and you can choose your existing locations for each plugin format also during the installation process to keep them where they should be. The videos I posted from users are independent and have no connection to IK Multimedia. These are users who are wowed with MODO DRUM and we found these videos just as anyone might through searching. Just in case that wasn't clear.

That is Cakewalk by BandLab. But we've tested both it and Sonar (see above) and this is not a global issue. IK Support can take care of your issue at http://www.ikmultimedia.com/contact-support
