As per Subject.
I have V 3 and 4 installed on my PC, which refuse to see my audio interface. I want to reinstall them but I cant seem to find where the files are. I can't remember if one of them came with BIAB...
I logged in on Ikmultimedia website and I can download V 5 but I believe this to be only a demo?
Update...
I have managed to sort my problem out regarding the Audio interface. Amplitube v3, 4 and 5 are working but only V3 shows the BIAB guitar presets. I assume this is normal.
I would still like to know if Amplitube is currently supplied with BIAB 2021 though. If yes, then where can I find it?
Thanks.

i think amplitube 3 is 32 bit and if you want to use the BIAB presets with another amplitube version i think you have to 'enable legacy presets' or similar. i have seen a post but can't for the life of me remember where. maybe PG Support can help.

I can't speak for support, but I think if it IS included in the current version it would just be legacy support for the version you have.
I *think* they got licensed to include a certain version of Amplitube and continue supporting it, but I don't think you would gain anything from 2021 if you have it working now.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.
If you want to mark this resolved, so others learn how you solved it, Edit your first post and put [RESOLVED] after the initial subject line..

i find amplitube 3 more than enough for getting the guitar sounds i want. the only problem is the lack of talent on behalf of the guitarist...........but funnily enough that is not a problem with the RealTracks with a DI version.

It was version 3 that we used to include and it is both 32-bit and 64-bit. You can still use it, however you can also just download Amplitube 4 free version from your IK Multimedia account. The Amplitube "Band-in-a-Box" presets that we made are still included and can be used with your current version of Amplitube, but you need to convert them to your current Amplitube version (4 or 5). There is an option to convert legacy presets within Amplitube.

Amplitube 5 free version is not a demo. It is a real free version. It only has 1 amp etc, If you have earlier version with other amps, effects etc. they can be used in the new version. Check out the IK website for more information.
My wife asked if I had seen the dog bowl. I told her I didn't even know he could.

Check out the IK website for more information. Yep. I posted this in another thread. So are SampleTank, T-rax and Syntronic. The players are fully functional and are e same as the paid versions—the differences between the CS (free) and paid versions being in the number of libraries, effects etc. you get. When SampleTank 3, included with TotalStudio2 was giving me grief over Mojave, I downloaded ST4 CS for evaluation and now everything in TS2 came back to life. I had no idea and it’s something they do not advertise.
