Oops also meant to say that we've also posted v1.2 of sound library updates for SampleTank 4 (non-SE/MAX) users that were having issues with some guitars not being authorized properly.

We've definitely been making noise about the download and installation process here and I'll keep you posted on progress on any future release/solution for that.

Any update on when USB is shipping?

They have already started shipping.  If you look in your IK User Area under "My Orders" you should be see the current status of your order.

The included T-RackS is T-RackS 4.  They will also function with the T-RackS 5 GUI and engine if you install T-RackS 5 Custom Shop (you won't have resizing or full TR5 metering in that case)

Here is the official information about 4.0.2 and the sound library updates:

The following products has been updated and released on the IK Multimedia User Area:

Application

I went for the Max version and had my usual IK issues with corrupt downloads. Now I’ve got everything downloaded, I find that I have an extra file which no longer appears in my download list - namely "SampleTank_4_MAX_Instruments_Installer_Part2.zip". It has completely different contents from Part 1.
Anybody else got  this file and should I go ahead and install it?

I believe I answered elsewhere but this file was redundant and thus removed.  Sorry if there was confusion but you are not missing anything without that file as it is not necessary.  All downloads are good to go including two replaced files that were found corrupt for some.  Thanks!

You're welcome.   I'll have to have that added to the news.

No gear credits love ?

Any products that are in this promotion that are available for Gear Credits have the Gear Credit pricing discounted as well.

Yes the list should be coming soon according to the product manager and devs.  The pre-order pricing is also still in effect.  Thanks!

Holy cow. He must be on Red Bull like 24/7.

He's so mellow, though, so I doubt it.    I guess he was just born with crazy fingers, each with a brain of its own!  I believe he attended Julliard at some unbelievably young age so definitely a prodigy.

Thank you Peter.  

I listened to Jordan back when he first started demoing Korg keyboards. He could probably play a killer bassoon on keys. Faster than a real one. :)..or anything else for that matter. 

 

He plays a mean T'rung!  https://download.ikmultimedia.com/html/sampletank4/audiodemo/rudess_01/T-Rung Vietnamese Xylophone 1 - by Jordan Rudess.mp3

 Can't wait to listen to the other parts. Will we have a review of the orchestral sounds?

Not in the other ill Factor Quick Tour parts that are up but I will request some more content there.  I have to also check if Jordan Rudess recorded any audio demos for the orchestral instruments.

Four more parts coming soon!

Thanks for getting to this before I was able to be here to clarify.
