Hey Folks,
First of all, let me say LOUDLY! I AM NOT an employee at IK Multi! I repeat...I am NOT an IK Multimedia employee. I am simply a VERY grateful customer that is writing this on my own volition. So, PLEEZE don't taze my thread, man! I know there's a BUNCH of users here of SampleTank2. So, as a perpetually poor, struggling musician, I'm sure many of you can also identify with me scouring the web for hours on end for years looking for free quality sounds.
Well, I just scored the deal of a lifetime! I was already an owner of SampleTank2 L from back in '04, and knew of the ease of working with ST2. Yes, the authorizations are kind of a pain, but check out this deal. Since I was already a user, I got 50% off on upgrading to ST2XL for $70! That's 7Gigs of great sounds! $10/Gig...NOT BAD! But it doesn't stop there! Wth their current promotion I qualified to get any of their other virtual synths (check their site) for FREE! I downloaded Miroslav Philharmonik, ANUTHA 7 Gigs! That's $5/Gig! And at the expense of selling gadgets on late night TV!...BUT WAIT! If you act now...You can get yet another free product due to their Group Buy rules! ( See website...remember, I'm not paid for this) I'm getting the Sonik Synth! ANUTHA 8 Gigs of sounds!!! That's 22!...Count 'em TWENTY-TWO GIGS for $70 BUCKS! Like barely $3/Gig! Wanna know what else??? Now, this has nutin' to do with IK Multimedia, but if you REALLY want to make life simple, and BEAUTY-FULL, go to Chicken Systems website, and get their new release of Translator Special Edition for Sample Tank, and for $80 you can convert most, if not all of your other formats to ST2. ROLL ME IN THE MUD WITH ALL THE PIGS!
Again, I'm not an employee of EITHER!! NO DIRTY EMAILS TO ME, OR THEM FOR MY WORDS!
i7-12650H CPU, 32Gig RAM/Win 11 Pro. PreSonus 1824C, Native Instr S88 Mk1, ATOM SQ, PreSonus Sphere, Sonar Platinum, SampleTank4, BIAB 2023.

No harm no foul in letting people know about software deals.
The Cakewalk forum has a sub-forum specifically called SOFTWARE.....and I have found all sorts of good deals on software I wanted to buy from the posts there.
In addition, there are postings for updates, FREE updates, and on occasion, some links to some really nice and totally free VST and FX software plugs...... several of which I have and use on a regular basis. My favorite is a mastering plug.....
So yeah, if you hear of a super deal or a give away...... I ended up with a really nice totally workable and totally FREE version of EAST WEST Silver (limited sample library) as a result of a forum post..... so certainly, let people know.

You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
