IK Multimedia releases Beat Machines for SampleTank 4 - An encyclopedic collection of 100 vintage analog drum machines.

Anyone know if this is part of SampleTank Max?

Not if it was just released.  New programs don't usually get added to the "Max" bundles

$79.99 and no discount whatsoever, regardless of what you own

I’ve bought add-ons in the past but they’re usually discounted. I suppose with all the group buys and discounts at the moment they have to maximise profits somewhere.

 These are a dime a dozen.

You wanted less confusing pricing... This is 79.99, runs in SampleTank 4 (including the free CS version) and you can get up to 30% off additionally using our JamPoints loyalty program.  Thanks!

And in some cases free: https://reverb.com/ca/software/samples-and-loops/reverb/3514-reverb-drum-machines-the-complete-collection though probably not as slick as the ST4 ones and without the midi patterns.

That's always a selling point for all drum VIs.

This could be interesting. If it's based on the UNO drum PCM sounds, those are great.

Unfortunately I couldn't get the UNO working on my new PC in Ableton (even IK support stopped helping and I couldn't be bothered to start the whole process up again) and unfortunately Sampletank keeps on crashing (every session, I should really look into that).

Sampletank 4 is not crashing on my ancient system (configured as per signature)

Are you using Sampletank 4.21?  How many parts are you loading into a single instance (I try to keep it at 4)?

(might want to start a new thread)

That's not normal! Probably needs looking into!

And if you would like relevant feedback here, then posting details that would help others attempt to replicate the crashes would be a plus!

But I expect it will be included in Sampletank Max 4.

EDIT: Total Studio Max 4.

Not necessarily. 

There are many other instruments that have been released for Sampletank that are not included in ST Max

IK doesn't typically add new products to existing bundles. So any new product releases will likely end up in the next version of Total Studio Max.

Sorry, I made a mistake.  I meant Total Studio MAX 4.

I will open up a ticket this weekend I think. I had this problem before, but honestly forgot about it. Until I tried to use one of those mangled piano instruments and it was back. It's not during loading or previewing or selecting the sounds, it's upon playback. Ableton just completely shuts down. But not always right away, after a couple of tries I could bounce out the audio. Luckily Ableton saves crashlogs, so I hope it is something that could be fixed. I found a topic on VI Control with people with the same problems on different DAWs. It could be file structure related, or some buffer setting. 

On topic: I'm a sucker for drums and if they are anything like the UNO samples, people should really consider this.
