It's just the constant bugs that I want to see dealt with.
With IK Multimedia it seems buy, buy and buy and once you do, they don't want to know any of your problems or fix them.
Sad


I also wouldn't mind the sounds if the player were better. They have good prices but it is the player that throws me, even if it weren't buggy it feels ancient. They need to release a new excellent player to leverage all that content.

Well Sampletank 3 is supposed to be on the horizon, but thats been in the works for god knows how long.
Its also means that users of Sampletank 2 are most likely going to be left high and dry when it comes to updates and bug fixing.

I think given how bad S2 is they would be smart to give it as a free update to S2 users.

I would hope there will be a free version of Sampletank 3, which should solve the problem of Sampletank 2 being hard to work with and having such an awful browser.

Sampletank does have its bug with hanging notes sometimes, but i really like it, the built in effects are good. Bought it full price and i love it. Just wanna let the ik guys to know that they did a good job so now it's time for them to finish sampletank 3.

Some sounds do sound dated for sure... like the ones in SampleTron. But that is the point, isn't it?

I like the simplicity of the ST concept and even the user interface. It would be great if I could use ST2 without the need to start my DAW as administrator, as this causes many problems (audio driver routing, file handling, safety issues, licensing of other plugins) and I thus try to avoid using it. So this is a product I purchased (with many addons) which becomes practically unusable only due to the software protection used - and this is 2012.

I only have one bug with sampletank which is the hanging notes if i bounce offline, and i can live with it. So i have no immediate problem with ST2.

I've never really taken to the ST 'sound'. I think the best the OP can do is put it in Marketplace and try to recoup investment, unless IK doesn't allow that.
