The upgrade SKU is $49.99 so that would be the tier. Just buy the full version from GC for $49.99 to qualify for the $99.99 tier. https://www.guitarcenter.com/IK-Multimedia/Ampeg-SVX-2-Amp-Modeling-Plug-in.gc

I have Analog Lab Lite, and upgraded to Analog Lab 4. In Arturia Software Center, under the Analog Lab 4 product, it shows both Analog Lab 4 and Analog Lab V. I have both products installed.

The price of SVX2 is $99.99 while the SVX2 upgrade is $49.99. If you want to claim the SVX2 upgrade at the $49.99 tier, you can do that. Otherwise, the products are equivalent.

Yes. Then I can use one of the other drum libraries I own (SSD, MODO, BFD), and have a clean rhythm track to play along with.

FYI, the bx equivalent to British Console is bx_console SSL 4000 and 4000 G (it emulates both).

For me, for a previous paid order, I see: * FREE Waves Plugin: Renaissance Bass * Putting It in the Pocket Explained® - Free Download * Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon: Guitar Play-Along - Free Download So, that's three freebies with a paid order (which I will have to work on).

How would it do extracting the drum tracks (to MIDI) from fully mixed recordings (i.e. drums + other instruments)? Trying to find a shortcut to figuring out the drum grooves from songs. If it can reliably pull out the kick and the snare, I'll be happy. More would be bonus.

Oh, right. If you don't install the Samples for a category, you'll want to delete them from Instruments (which is a separate installation file). So, just check Instruments and delete any that don't exist in Samples.

Nope. Since you can purchase each synth individually, each synth can be installed separately (i.e. it's a separate, standalone product). Same thing with SampleTank 4 MAX ... all the individual libraries are exposed as separately installable. But SampleTank 4 is a single product so it's all or nothing.

IK Product Manager doesn't have an option to only download--install is the only option, AFAIK. But you can then uninstall and then manually install. There is a way to manually download, but I wouldn't recommend it for SampleTank 4 (42 files). But easiest way is to do the deletion after installation.

That's if you let Product Manager do everything, you can after installation manually go into the SampleTank sound installation directory and delete the instruments and samples you don't want. But if you take the files downloaded by Product Manager, you can pick and choose which ones to install manually (though for SampleTank 4, it can be a lot to slog through manually). Good idea for enhancement request for IK Product Manager.

I'm getting '"TH-U Free Rigs" requires a license.' Is there something else I need to do?

Nope, ARC is not in Custom Shop. Here's a deal on ARC 3 with mic for $184 (which will get you in at the $249.99 tier though there's no advantage over the $199.99 tier): https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1633035-REG/ik_multimedia_ac_300_hcd_in_arc_system_3_with.html

Assuming no previous IK purchases, buy a $99.99 product to get eligibility for crossgrades, then pick up AmpliTube for $199.99 which gives you 2x freebies (MODO DRUM is at the $199.99 tier). For an even better deal, purchase 300 gear credits for $225, and buy the products with gear credits. And there’s also a 15% coupon from Groove3.

Interesting. Looks similar to GeoShred. http://www.moforte.com/

British Channel = SSL 4000 E/G White Channel = SSL 9000 K From what I read, British for rock (colored) and White for dance (cleaner). YMMV

It's free. https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/st4/index.php?p=editor "This free download is available to registered users of any paid version of SampleTank 4, and it can be downloaded from your IK User Area alongside the manual with handy checklists for both Instrument and Library creation."

SampleTekk, but look for the 80% or 90% off sales to load up,

Thanks for the info. Fortunately, my main music computer is a Mac, but I do have Windows computers as well, so good to know. Have you tried using the non-ASIO driver (I'm thinking the latency doesn't matter, but I don't know).

I ordered the following from Amazon: Dayton Audio iMM-6 Calibrated Measurement Microphone for iPhone, iPad Tablet and Android,Black - $22.89 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00ADR2B84/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 aceyoon Trrs Extension Cable 10ft / 3m 3.5mm Male to Female 4 Pole Aux Audio Cord Headphone Car Stereo Extender with Mic for Smartphone, Tablet, Speaker - $6.98 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B093715WVJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 It's an experiment. If it doesn't work, I have another measurement mic I can use (but not calibrated).

This is a versatile boutique amp that can reproduce a lot of different tones. I picked up the iOS version for $9.99 (usually $19.99) to go along with Sound Master, Acoustic Voice, Voice DC 30, and Black Ice. https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/46714/bg-extasy-boutique-amplifier-by-nembrini-audio JoyceRoadStudios:

It was only on page 52. You didn't look hard enough. 8) CSV: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vQJOiit3wKhbyN87OdguckZzYDo_xz3PYDM2fanVWsyiDCXGzB3Ys3iWYhsDRiTog8fX3G3CYAJPVKA/pub?gid=0&single=true&output=csv XLSX: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vQJOiit3wKhbyN87OdguckZzYDo_xz3PYDM2fanVWsyiDCXGzB3Ys3iWYhsDRiTog8fX3G3CYAJPVKA/pub?output=xlsx I added two Picks 1/Picks 2 columns where you can put your picks. I added some numbers as an example. Just delete and substitute your own.

Did you use the "IK Product Manager" to install everything?

Additional licenses for multiple machines might make sense. Another reason more likely reason is just to get another set of freebies (makes sense if you get an especially good deal). There's an exception to the above. Purchases of *collections* via gear credits are also resellable after 90 days (had to read the fine print). Check directly in My Products--you might be pleasantly surprised. My GC purchase of AmpliTube 5, under Serials/License, shows "Products cannot be transferred until after 90 days of ownership." So, in Custom Shop, if it's under Collections (under AmpliTube, T-RackS, or SampleTank), then it should be resellable (eventually).

Yes, any library that's licensed to work in Kontakt Player would qualify. I forgot, also any of the non-free Native Instruments Kontakt libraries will work, too. But there are only a handful of free libraries--the vendor pays the licensing and then gives the product away.
