What are your guys' favorites and must-have Amplitude packs? I'm trying to prioritize... Keep in mind you can try them all using the Custom Shop and decide from there. That said, if I could only pick one, it would be Fender (ok, ok, that's two) 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.r Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 The last audio demo on IKM Satch website, how am I supposed to know what gear was used if I'd like to replicate the sound. Or was it a preset? Any help appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitekrazy1 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I have everything except the recent product so this one forces you to sit it out. Killer group buy though. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Ok so I'm posting: 1) because I know many of you are checking and it's so quiet, you're sad that there is no update here. 2) because I'm trying to sort things out to make sure I didn't miss anything I don't have.... So, for those spreadsheet makers and others who want to work out their brains a bit tonight, a couple of quick questions... T-Racks: If I have T-Racks 5 Max, and I add Space Delay, Sunset Reverb and Comprexxor, I have everything T-Racks-related, right? Syntronik: If I have Syntronik Deluxe, I have 'em all, right? (there aren't any of the individual synths in the GB that I need to get seperately)? Amplitube: And Amplitube is a bit more complicated, but from my calculations, I had Amplitube 4 Max, so a bunch of the packs got upgraded, but if I got Brian May, Dimebag Darrell, Fender 2, Joe Satriani and Leslie, I believe I should be covered? (basically the same as Amplitube 5 Max?) Sampletank: I have Sampletank 4. I'm assuming I'd have to get all of the Sampletank packs that are available in the Group Buy (like 30 of them) to have the equivalent of Sampletank 4 MAX? I know it's a lot of questions and thinking.... feel free to ignore this. I know there are many here who pay attention way more than I do and since I have been trying to sort out this stuff for a week and my brain is mush haha, wondering if I missed anything.

Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 @Luc Regarding Amplitube, you'd be missing the new impulse response functionality that is in AT5 "full" but not AT5 CS In general I would use a combination of looking in Custom Shop and checking in the DAW whether the plugin opens or it complains about a license being required Custom Shop gets pretty close to being accurate but I am coming across strange edge cases with items that I do have a license for, but CS is not showing them with the green checkmark. Some examples are the Classic T-Racks Equalizer or the Opto Tremolo Stomp. Also, for collections it seems random whether they'll show the checkmark or not. For many of these collections (e.g., Amplitube Leslie, Fender 2, etc.) they don't show the checkmark but, if I click on them to get the details about the included items, all of them are checkmarked (or all but one, that I do have a license for anyway). I have tried the "restore my purchases" multiple times but it didn't make a difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. And that's good advice checking to see if the license shows up when loading. And definitely good to know that the CS checkmarks aren't always accurate cuz I based some of my plans on that. So many bits and pieces it's tough to keep track of what I have and what I don't. Though deep down, it's a good problem to have, I guess! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I purchased my 2nd Group Buy entry today and I was just installing all the new software. Something that I want to give thanks for is the IK Installation Manager. It has worked really well and it makes a tremendous difference in the installation and authorization process compared to how cumbersome it used to be a couple of years ago 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telecode 101 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 (edited) Man.. i am really hoping some reseller puts MODO Bass on sale somewhere. That is the only way I would consider jumping in on this GB again at a higher level. They had MODO SE for $40 at beginning on GB and then nothing since. ?

There's probably lots of other variables to consider too - day of the week - end of the month (payday for some) etc etc We'll see another bump nearer the end of the GB I suspect I suppose the way to look at it is that anything else going forward is a bonus (glass is half full ) Edited September 4, 2021 by simon 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're on track with T-RackS, and if you follow the advice given for AmpliTube, you should be good there as well. So I'm only going to comment on SampleTank... Unless you can somehow get the ST4 MAX crossgrade, you will not get the MAX package via individual Group Buy freebies. Although as freebies go, there are numerous SampleTank 3 instruments, and post ST4 instrument collection releases that you can pickup. But there are 2,000 more instruments, and an additional 160GB of samples in MAX, that are not included in the full ST4!
