My melodies and beat pattern ideas could be chart-topping and club shaking, but not festival anthems. So this isn't for me then? (I jest - I always like to make fun of marketing hyberbole)

No joke. Some of these designers are incredible on what they can do. And all I can make is plastic-y synth sounds....

Not sure I understand your comment, but....OK.

Thank you.

I've been slowly adding content to Sampletank 4 as freebies, and I noticed this yesterday. The full Sampletank 3 and 4 libraries are registered and show correctly, but what is this "ST4 Imported"? Does this look right?

Yes, he is not a good human being. He runs VI-Control like a North Korean dictator, and belittles or simply bans those who do not fall lock step in with him. As such, I will purchase no products that he is involved in.

I will never buy anything from Realitone or Mike Greene.

This is the same company that forgot to renew their SSL certificate a few months ago. EDIT: And now the site is down... (Is 8DIO.com the new JRR Shop?)

Mini keys

I travel with the mini version of that. Even the tiny one integrates so well with the V Collection

I hate country, but Garth Brooks did a song ("Unanswered Prayers") about this exact scenario...

I'm guessing 18

Was it here or in the KVR thread that someone posted a spreadsheet of all the IK products with their respective costs? I can't seem to find it, but that would be helpful now that more freebies will be coming.

I only have a handful of them, but the Dronar Live Strings is a decent starting point. Just note, however, that none these sound nothing like their namesakes.

Crickets are better.....

OK. Here it is. @abacab 's first Kontakt release - Cage Crickets. Full Kontakt required. ? crickets.nki

Love that Dronar stuff. Makes me sound like an amazing sound designer.

I absolutely love that show. Some of the things they did with musical numbers were amazing. This take off of the Music Man is one of my favorites:

QVO, QLC, EVO, TCL...

Not in my case. I had to use the old authorization manager to get the SampleTank 4 libraries to work, as well as the Syntronik libraries into Sampletank.

I'm a hot chocolate and Mt. Dew man.

I did not say IK is a lesser company. I'm saying IK's installation/authorization processes are inferior to those other companies. And I think you know that. Again, to say one just needs to use the IK Product manager is disingenuous. Look at @Olong Johnson post above. Just to install/authorize Sampletank 4 requires two separate applications. Peter - you are a great representative online for your company. I don't post much here or on KVR, but I read quite a bit. You take quite a bit of "guff" for IK's shortcomings, and generally do it in a positive manner. You are helpful, and put a good "face" to IK. My point in my post was not to bash IK, just to relay my experiences as a first time customer. I'm actually considering "buying in" again to the Group Buy.

Just for Sampletank, you have to use both a Product manager, a separate sounds download, and a separate authorization manager.
