Nope. The installer wanted to put the library in My Documents. There are already folders created there for ST3 and 4 sounds. The ST update didn't remember my IK Vst folder either. Some of the issues other may have had in this thread is the standalone showed ST4 SE unregistered and the new sounds. Running it as a VST removed that. So if anyone has issues do VST first then standalone.
Again, this is not normal behavior, the installers are set to recall your library location. If you believe you have found an issue (be it an issue for you or to be verified if you feel it is global) please report it to IK Support. Thanks.

Uh-oh.
Bummer that these installers have lost their memory of previous installs. So if anyone has issues they may not have installed where you usually put them.
That's not normal behavior. The library location that you have set in ST4 should be what comes up in the installer.

Maybe I can convince someone to make ST4 become an offer you can't refuse

Yep i know Peter just asking is someone can get this freebee prior to getting ST4 later ...
That would not be possible at this time, sorry.

Do we have to have ST 4 ? can we get this anticipating a futur acuqisition of ST 4 ?
Spaceport '77 will only run in SampleTank 4, SampleTank 4 SE, or SampleTank 4 MAX.

Huh, any idea why it's not adding a serial to my account?
I do not but IK Support is able to look directly at accounts and I've also reported to them that some are having trouble getting Spaceport '77. Our IT department is gone for the day (they're in Italy) but we should also have their input tomorrow.

Doesn't work for me, either. I'm guessing you need the full Sampletank to get it.
Spaceport '77 is available for SampleTank 4, SampleTank 4 SE, and SampleTank MAX users. Crossgraade/upgrade as well.

Didn't Barnes & Noble get sold recently? We might be seeing impact specifically in music periodicals but I'll bet there are similar niche periodicals that they're quietly losing or similar, if they are paring things down or somehow making changes/cuts to fit into the mold of their new overlords.
Personally I love reading printed magazines and books but hate dealing with magazines after I'm done with them. IK has relationships with most if not all mentioned here, but my personal opinion based on my interests lean toward TapeOp and Sound On Sound, with the occasional interest in CM.

MODO DRUM has GM mapping (plus some outside of the GM mapping) and the current JamStix beta works with it too if you'd like to have a great "virtual drummer".

Thanks Larry!
Just checked MODO Drums and it adds a promo code MOD050 which deducts another 50 EUR (149.99 EUR plus VAT for me) but won't let you use Jampoints as well.
That's the special deal for MODO BASS owners still running, and coupon codes & JamPoints cannot be combined per http://www.ikmultimedia.com/jampoints/

This might be a question you're not allowed to answer, but is it difficult to break the connection between the plugins and the dongle? I don't mean in an illegal crack way; I mean as a company that has access to the source code. I'm just wondering from the point of view that if a company wanted to stop using a dongle copy protection scheme, is most of the effort in changing the code (and subsequently getting a new scheme in place), or getting the decision approved?
Honestly it was before my tenure with IK (so over 10 years ago, wow how time flies!) so I wasn't around to witness it. However, there are likely challenges both internally and externally if a company considers not using a dongle. From my personal perspective, not IK's, I'd say a company would likely keep dongle protection around for the duration of the contract period for which they paid eLicenser, iLok, etc as a minimum even if they wanted to transition away from using a hardware dongle. They'd also likely need that time to work on or implement whatever replacement licensing and copy protection scheme they subsequently chose.
The actual decision-making process is going to be fairly unique to each company and I can tell you that from my experience it really is vastly different between different companies though my previous IT and development based experience was outside of companies that created audio plugins.

I'm glad we only had a short-lived relationship with "the dongle" but honestly I have used Cubase for so long and don't mind having the dongle, I just put it and my iLok on a lanyard and I'm good to go. I rarely use a laptop or my same setup outside of my big and small room setups in the home studio as it is fairly well-equipped and anybody else I work with is usually at least as well-equipped or needs to force me to use Pro Tools working with them anyway (don't get me started - love/hate relationship there! But I learned it from when it was Sound Tools and so many colleagues use it so it is just what it is...).
It is probably also workflow-dependent, as I'll usually export WAV files (or at least stems) to work somewhere else since I like to try not to mix while composing or tracking and commit things at a certain point but YMMV and I totally see why dongles are hardwarta non grata for many. Which is why IK didn't keep using one!

I`ve noticed there has been quite a few updates over the past couple of months.
I was going to say something similar. I know I JUST updated it recently (I was still seeing the "No internet connection detected in my Cubase startup screen) and it was a pretty recent update. I still do hope for something new, especially a new version of Cubase instead of some other tangential product I'm not as interested in.
Edit: Also, https://www.elicenser.net will redirect you to the longer URL, I found it easier to remember when I want to check periodically myself. Though this reminder was good to see because I wouldn't have checked for weeks if not months since I just updated.

Thanx Pete!
No problem! Sorry if I caused confusion. I try to keep our verbiage as "through" instead of "to" (or worse, either/or) as had been happening in the past. Sounds silly but sometimes a simple change of one word consistently does wonders. I'll keep it "through" and if I miss one or mess it up let me know.
