After some [considerable] deliberation I'm going with T-RackS as the mystery guest. Good luck to everyone else in the thread!

Wow. If indeed it is TRacks 3, I will be sincerely disappointed.Squids wrote:Yes, we will find out tomorrow and someone is going to WIN it too! Good luck!!!!
Let's see... one last hint. Okay, it has something in it that in the hardware world I wish I had one but most of us couldn't afford a real one so... it sure will be nice to have this!

Remember when Roland had a huge 3 day count down in RED, and everyone was hugely anticipating the next Fantom or somesuch.
Turned out to be a red colored small amp = LAME.
This feels dangerously close to that.

probably a type of synth. I still say it is sampletank 3.

Highly unlikely after Squids' last comment. Warm, expensive piece of gear?ATS wrote:keyman_sam wrote:Wow. If indeed it is TRacks 3, I will be sincerely disappointed.Squids wrote:Yes, we will find out tomorrow and someone is going to WIN it too! Good luck!!!!

Unless he's talking about the fairlight computer, I highly doubt its the tank. Plus, he said "much needed update". TRacks hasnt been updated in years. ST just had a 2.5 update.
However, I find it hard to believe that TRacks would pump money into IK. I'd imagine ST3 would get a LOT of attention and money, but TRacks, no, in my opinion ofcourse.
This is not to say TRacks is bad or anything. I have it, love it to death, and use it on everything. Its less of a wanted item than sampletank.
however, not everyone needs ST2 but everyone needs a TRacks kinda thing in their setup.

Look, I understand that you guys WANT it to be SampleTank. You'll find out in a matter of hours if it is. If it isn't then at least that message got across to IK that you'd WANT it to be. But saying you'd be disappointed if it was ANY of the three without seeing what the update actually is... that's just plain silly IMO. Any of those three powerful and useful plug-ins in a new version that's been a long time coming would be exciting. As long as the new udpated plug-in had some cool new features worth upgrading to! Do you think IK would make a new version number without that? Have they ever? I am not talking about .5 free updates I am talking about going from a 1 to a 2 (ie. AT1 to AT2? ST1 to ST2?)... so if it is going to a 3 it means some new IK modeled effects are involved... and that's never disappointed me. I rely HEAVILY on that in my virtual studio. Don't know about you. But hundreds of thousands of others also rely on companies like IK to bring them high quality, highly musical plug-ins that are affordable (less expensive than the high end competition) and also don't happen to require hardware keys/dongles or PCI cards.
But, anyway... let's try to enjoy this. No whining please!

Almost had a heart attack. Don't go foolin people like that.Squids wrote:It's not SampleTank. Sorry. You lose. You get nothing. Good day sir.keyman_sam wrote:Squids its already the 15th. and i'm awake. Could you please tell us what it is?Just kidding. That was from Willy Wonka. I can't tell you until IK announces it which might be when they wake up in Italy. So that'd be not TOO long from now.
Going to bed now. And hopefully wake up tommorow with a suprise.

I was just kidding. Although my head is ready to explode. I need to go to bed.
I'm tempted to just let the cat out of the bag but... I'd just get in trouble so. It will be officially announced in a few! Goodnight and thanks for participating in a fun thread! Hope you won it!!!!
