I contacted IKMultimedia to see if the version of Amplitube that came packaged with BIAB 2012 was eligible for one of the special upgrade or crossgrade prices.

Apparently there *IS* a reduced price available to us as a crossgrade: $225 for the whole shebang! (list price is $349)

That buys 160 pieces of gear modelled from the real vintage equipment used on all the songs we grew up listening to!

If you bought all 160 pieces of gear from the custom shop, the total price would be around $2,000, I think it's a TON of capability for a reasonable crossgrade price. From now on no more recording wet signals that you can't change without re-recording the passage! Just record it dry and then experiment with Amplitube until you find exactly the right mix of amps, effects and settings!

If anybody wants to order an upgrade, here's the contact information for the guy who made sure there was a reduced price for anybody who got Amplitube packaged with BIAB 2012

Tell him you heard about the special price on the PGMusic forum
