IK MultiMedia T-RackS 6 Intro Available

[GroverKen]

Just downloaded the new T-Racks 6 via the product manager.

Whats the difference?

[GroverKen]

New layout for starters. I hoped all the modules I purchased for T-Racks 5 would be there but disappointed with that one. Won't be repurchasing.

But doesn’t 6 just have all of 5 plus a few extra plugins?

[GroverKen]

Haven't had time to list all the modules but they are locked except for the ones that come as standard. You can filter presets by Owned Modules - mine is completely greyed out.

If I'm going to have to repurchase the modules, I'm not going to bother even looking at it any further.

If you have everything now, and still want to have everything you must buy MAX, it's the only choice. MAX here I come.

Plus 8 new ones, and all the other stuff

[Nitrate Audio]

wow... those YT videos came out fast LOL!! 

checking it out.. but it looks like they put Tracks into a shell that looks like ToneX sort of. the bigger question is what has improved and what is new?

I have T-Racks 5 and the plugins aren't bad.  No better or worse than other popular developers.  After looking at what T-Racks 6 has to offer, I'm not impressed.  I'm not seeing anything that makes me say, "I need to upgrade".  I have a bunch of T-Racks 5 plugins, if I upgrade to T-Racks 6 am I able to insert my T-Racks 5?  If not, that's definitely a turn off.

just wait to get to get T-Racks6 MAX for 49.99$

Well I think I spoke to soon, seems I have a upgrade to MAX for $99, glad I didn't purchase yet, I'll contact IK or Peter to make sure it's all good, then I'll  happily jump on it

I wish IK didn't add two important features that are missing in T-racks : external sidechain and external fx inserts

I'm more excited by the new Toneboosters EQ

That said, 200€ for all of these plugins is still a good price

To explain my opinion a little more.  I'd like to have the option to use my V5 plugins in V6.  I want IK to give me a reason to upgrade my plugins from V5 to V6 other than simply compatibility.  In other words not being able to use V5 in V6 simply because they are V5.  If there's no significant difference between V5 and V6, what's the point?

[DrShelder]

My perfectionism is killing me 🙈

[MattMusic]

Nice, but indeed a shame you kinda have to keep on repaying the modules you already bought...

Will wait for a new Total Studio update, with hopefully Sampletank 5
