If there are 4,000 sounds in STank3 it should work fine in 32 bit because that averages out to about 8MB per sample(I'm guessing they went with the quantity over quality approach)Numanoid wrote:mpoirier wrote:So if your computer has more than 4GB RAM, wanting to use Stank 3 or other heavy software like Omnisphere in 32 bit mode, is like driving a car with the handbrake on.

Obvious, really. Your MIPS system has clearly been running in big-endian mode. Total noob mistake, but easy to sort out; if you install Tracktion facing the other way, it should all work fine.[/quotwhyterabbyt wrote:hueynym wrote:For some reason, none of my 12bit custom coded MIPS IRIX plugins seem to work on ANY of my 64bits DAWS.

That's not how it works (the former, not the latter - I'd hope the latter is how it works in most cases and since there is no demo during the preorder and will be coming soon we would field questions that people had in order to help them with this sort of thing). Instruments are not 1:1 with samples. Some instruments are based on the same sample set, as is typical a process I'd think. There are very large samples included (one of the main pianos comes to mind) and of course there are some that are not quite as large. Either way, instrument:sample is not 1:1. I hope that helps.drunken jesus wrote:If there are 4,000 sounds in STank3 it should work fine in 32 bit because that averages out to about 8MB per sample(I'm guessing they went with the quantity over quality approach)Numanoid wrote:mpoirier wrote:So if your computer has more than 4GB RAM, wanting to use Stank 3 or other heavy software like Omnisphere in 32 bit mode, is like driving a car with the handbrake on.

It was a bit of sarcasm mocking the sales pitch I know it's a tactic all romplers usually employ same as every DAW'll say they'll turn your pc into a professional recording studioPeter - IK Multimedia wrote: That's not how it works (the former, not the latter - I'd hope the latter is how it works in most cases and since there is no demo during the preorder and will be coming soon we would field questions that people had in order to help them with this sort of thing).

Once you have SampleTank 2.5 XL registered in your account, you can then get the boxed version as an upgrade. The site should show you the correct pricing if you are logged in at that point. That way you can turn your PC into a professional recording studio in both 32- and 64-bit immediately afterdrunken jesus wrote:It was a bit of sarcasm mocking the sales pitch I know it's a tactic all romplers usually employ same as every DAW'll say they'll turn your pc into a professional recording studioPeter - IK Multimedia wrote: That's not how it works (the former, not the latter - I'd hope the latter is how it works in most cases and since there is no demo during the preorder and will be coming soon we would field questions that people had in order to help them with this sort of thing).

I couldn't find anything about upgrading to a boxed version on the ST page but kudos on your excellent reading skillsMushy Mushy wrote: Why don't you people read?
Took me two seconds to find the answer.
the analogy isn't really valid because VHS and DVD's aren't routinely sold together in one pack. plugins usually come 32 and 64 bit versions. the only plugin that's 64-bit only that i'm aware of is SampleTank 3. while i moved to 64 bit quite a while ago and don't have a problem with IK taking a stand and force-moving everyone to 64-bit (in fact, the latter i welcome), i still think that they should've made it much clearer in their marketing materials that SampleTank 3 isn't just 64-bit, but 64-bit ONLY. it's not industry standard practice, hence it should be called out as a courtesy to the customers.robojam wrote:I bought a movie the other day at Best Buy, and when I opened the box there was only a DVD in it!
I was expecting a VHS cassette, but nothing on the box said there is no VHS version in there!

@Peter thanks for the prompt response, looking forward to recording thousands of professional sounds once the boxed version comes out
