I just hope 1.) it arrives by Aug. 31st and 2.) I can sell my unregistered ARC 3 (and get it in the hands of the buyer) by Aug. 31st, too. Did anyone here miss the deadline to register hardware/software in previous Group Buys? Was there any leeway on the IK side to register the goods? In the previous group buys the IKM support was always kind enough to make people through the GB even if there was a lag in shipping, as long as your receipt says that your purchase was within the GB timeframe you should be fine. 8 minutes ago, Doug Rintoul said: Same thing here. I went for a four hour hike, came back and was overwhelmed with the number of posts. I thought maybe the IKM site had crashed or something slightly less terrible like the sun going supernova. Yeah I got it by reading the thread it's all about the competition vs kvr. Hilarious! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 10 products I don't need but would like to have, plus 12 products I don't need but look interesting. BTW - Since it hasn't been brought up yet: After getting a gazillion IK downloadables we probably want to also buy something like this https://www.newegg.com/p/2WA-00YJ-00018 (sure, redownload credits are probably cheaper in $$ but the annoyance cost is much higher than that) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have the JamPoints, it’s only a difference of $46, quite the bargain to get all the freebies. And who “needs” any of this anyways? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I discovered a couple of versions of CS installed. one thinks that I have 165 GC, and the other says 15... Is it an older installation from before the IK Product Manager was released? I only see one Custom Shop and I have AmpliTube, T-RackS, and SampleTank installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t go the GC route but was thinking of doubling up to get even more freebies but after a lot of thought I decided I was going to wait as long as possible because maybe there will be enough freebies with 1 entry and second one may not be necessary. Aren’t they flaunting it could go as high as 25 free products ? This is a lesson in self control. Hehe… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALC Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I'm looking forT-RackS recommendations. I have T-RackS 5. Picked up Comprexxor, Sunset Sound Studio Reverb. Planning on getting Stealth Limiter, Space Delay, and Tape Echo. Any compelling EQs to get? How are EQ 73, EQ 81, EQ PA, EQ PB, EQ PG, Master EQ 432? How are the CSR reverbs? I have PhoenixVerb and Waves CLA Epic. If I were to only pick one Tape Machine, which one would you recommend? 24, 440, 80, or 99? I'm thinking of getting one first, and then maybe pick up the rest later if there are enough freebies. Thanks. So many choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy 200 Gear Credits for $159.99, and then use them to buy Amplitube 5 in the Custom Shop using GC for the $199 level. Buy Gear Credits here => https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/index.php?R=INIT&FV=all-credits-family-related-products&CV=Other Filter&PSEL=allcredits To confirm, Once we purchase in the custom shop (using gear credits) then this gets us into the group buy at $199 level correct...
