If you registered it during the group buy period I believe it should have triggered the Group Buy. IK Support can look directly at your account and see what is going on though.

For sure, we're just shy of 1,900 already - a nice leap. 6 for the price of 1 now, nipping at the heels of 7 for 1.

Correct, eligible hardware has been listed as so in previous group buys - it was not triggered by the free software included with a hardware registration. This group buy is software only. Also: There are now 590 participants so you can go choose another freebie if you have already participated or - join now and get four for the price of one.

Before it is asked, note that this does not qualify for the Group Buy.

That's a pretty edge case and the software would walk you through it. From the ARC X User Manual: From there it should take you through the steps, I believe the ARC Studio (or compatible monitors) manuals instruct you on how to put the hardware into DFU/Recovery mode but the software should guide you as well.

Recovery. But I'm doubting there are use cases where the measurements are wonky or similar that can be fixed where people would want to revert. See above

Also if you have ARC 4. And the speaker line from iLoud Micro Monitor Pro and up get ARC X free and those monitors now take advantage of the updated ARC tech.

Though JRRShop is a US IK dealer and even if they sell "by mistake" or whatever to another region the proper taxes should be charged, legally... Just to note.

TONEX v1.10.2 (for Mac/PC) What's new in version 1.10.2: TONEX Added a Tone Model Version filter (available in both Home and ToneNET). Fixed an issue with the cab lock in ToneNET. TONEX Modeler Fixed an issue where specific capture names could prevent training. Fixed an issue where re-training a capture could start multiple training processes. Fixed an issue where the "Start All" button became unavailable. Fixed an issue where the training progress bar could display incorrect jumps. General reliability improvements.

Both the applications/plugins and the libraries from those (Syntronik and SampleTron 2) were discontinued and are not in Total Studio 5 MAX nor SampleTank 4 MAX now.

If you already have one, you can get the other for 29.99 on our site too, if that works out better for anybody. https://www.ikmultimedia.com/news/?id=TonexAmpliTubeMaxSale2025

Something is going on there. I have connected countless TONEX pedals that are not registered to my account and they work perfectly inside TONEX Editor without a hitch. I would reach out to IK Support so they can figure out what is happening there. I verified that it should work as you expected via our Testing Manager who has run this scenario multiple times in a much "cleaner" (more scientific/structured) environment than mine, too.

Thanks, that's great information. I have used each of those resources and have had some luck with IRs from each of them but I have to admit I never thought of blending them, that's brilliant thank you.

First, thanks for the detailed writeup, very cool and glad to hear a lot of these points. To the quoted part: What IRs are you using? I know that matching everything is an art form but I am curious nonetheless. I am going to have to search for some that work with TONEX Cab and my gigging acoustics too because I can see using it for acoustic guitar and I am happy that I can very easily work in some electric which I tend to avoid sometimes due to the logistics of solo gigs and all. Thanks again for the great writeup!

iLoud Micro Monitor, and iLoud Micro Monitor Pro. Much more than just computer speakers, they are legit and you can absolutely mix with them on the go. The non-pro are only $/€349.99 MSRP and currently in US/Canada are on sale for a great deal lower. I have a couple of pairs of those and haven't made the jump to the Pro units but I'm getting those for my downstairs jam spot / DAWless quick recording area.

For those having issues, we posted this around but I wanted to post here (since I'd probably get deleted if I posted in its own thread): Important Update: We will be taking our sites and services down for maintenance to fix the intermittent issues on our web platforms/services. We expect the outage to last 30 minutes but it could be longer (though we aim for it to be 30 minutes). Thank you for your patience and support, we appreciate it and you.

I verified with our Support Manager that your issue is being handled with urgency.

Sorry about the ticket thing, our IT staff is aware of site issues and is working on them. In the mean time could you PM me your IK username and order number and I'll see what's going on? We will take care.

We did. When WE announced it. Sorry that a dealer opened their listing before we did, I think the listing that looked more like TS4 than TS5 might have been cause for hesitation personally.

If you have a paid version of T-RackS 6, your T-RackS 5 plugins will work in it. The only one that doesn't work this way is the free T-RackS 6 Intro version. Also covered in our FAQ at https://www.ikmultimedia.com/faq/index.php?id=1517 My statement that was quoted above was factual, not misleading.

Ah I see screwheads mentioned, I forgot to include that in my reply. I thought it interesting that we removed the screws but left the rack ears with empty holes. Overall it still looks way cleaner.

Also might be worth it for those who would like to upgrade their T-RackS 5 plugins to work in T-RackS 6 as the $30+ tier includes Total Studio Essentials which is T-RackS 6, TONEX SE (which unlocks unlimited User Tone Model downloads on ToneNET), AmpliTube 5 SE, and SampleTank 4 SE.

The yellow was muted/changed and I've seen mixed opinions on it but I don't mind it personally. I like the red Opto Compressor and don't think the color changed too drastically but the other elements changed a bit more. I see the dinosaur mentioned and surprised there's not a lot of back-and-forth but that has to be the most polarizing UI element we've ever had. He fought for his spot and evolved a bit but in the end more people hated him than loved him so he's gone.

The previous was an error, those who honored it that's on them to decide. This is also an error and not the current price we set for the product, 99.99 is the current sale price for T-RackS 6 MAX. Which is... $100 off the upgrade price.

It was not intentional. It was a dealer mispricing, then a couple of others noticed and matched. If you were here having found and then trying to help manage getting it fixed promptly when some of the players move a bit like a monolith you would curse the glitch and never want to do it intentionally. It was a bit of a nightmare here on our side. Nobody was happy, not the dealers involved not the dealers who weren't and wondered what the.., not us.
