Arjan M 113 Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) https://www.ikmultimedia.com/news/?id=freememoryv Free Syntronik Memory-V for Newsletter Subscribers A holiday gift to our IK family! We love our IK family and we want to spread some holiday cheer! That's why we are giving all of our new and existing newsletter subscribers the Memory-V instrument for Syntronik for free from December 16 through the 30th. Syntronik Memory-V is our take on the classic 18-oscillator monster analog polysynth Memorymoog. Manufactured from 1981 to 1985, it's often described as six Minimoogs in one unit! Its timbral palette is nothing short of impressive, capable of producing a huge variety of sounds including strings, brasses, pads, flutes as well as more percussive sounds.

telecode 101 1,462 Posted December 18, 2020 +1 just make sure you download the file and keep it safe. They removed by OBx freebie from my account and want to charge me to download it again. Luckily I saved it somewhere. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

paulo 3,585 Posted December 18, 2020 Or put another way.......IK wrap up the same gift that they gave you last year and hope that you don't notice..........😀 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cclarry 25,997 Posted December 18, 2020 I'm a subscriber...and I didn't get it Whether I own it or not is irrelevant. If it's a gift, that shouldn't matter...especially "for the Holidays", but hey, it's IK, and if they can find a way to screw you, they will certainly utilize it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh, I know that I have it, but that's not the point. i.e...I have it in TS2 Max... but should that ever go bye bye, I would still have the Memory V...so, as I stated in my post, whether I have it or not is completely irrelevant 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't get it too but I had it already in my account as a single, probably from the previous campaign. But if you have it with the bundle then it's strange indeed that you didn't get the single.

cclarry 25,997 Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) This is another example of IK "porking" existing customers... Here's your Xmas gift! Oh, you already have it? Too bad then! Here's our middle finger! But YAY for new customers who don't! Thanx IK! Edited December 18, 2020 by cclarry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn't show a pop-up when you got to "My Products"? Usually it does even if you have it already. If not, that's annoying. "You are too much of a good client because you bought the big package so we wanna make sure we don't give you this one" 😂 - not completely surprising but definitely disappointing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh well. Surprised this new one is like 5 gigs of HD space. It's $10 to reactivate your downloads for another 180 days. That is for everything in your account, not just for a single product. And you can use Jam Points for up to 30% of a purchase, so that can work out to $7 spent for another 180 days of downloads... Yes, that's still a pain, but it is what it is... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
