I'm going for 3x too, as soon as I decide which 18 packs to get..

I don't have 6 more things to pick. A couple more things I wouldn't mind having, but certainly not 5 or 6. If they added a few extra packs, however...

Heya androidlove.

Thanks!

Yeah, I'll also echo my thanks for that. That Choir Symphony patch made me sit up and take notice. Beautiful. Some of these are quite useful. I had dismissed it from the IK demo as it mostly had those beach boy like sounds. I'm now thinking of this one as my last choice. Interesting.

When watching that video I also came across another great Expansion Tank video on youtube.

Although, I can't quite figure out how I could load that into Sample Tank.

Is it as simple as purchasing and registering? Or is there some kind of special promo code (I see people signing their posts with some esoundz referral name, do I need that?) you're supposed to enter during checkout?
When you make your purchase at esoundz - You can earn ePointz by entering the esoundz login name or full name of a friend during the checkout process.

Your ePointz can be used to purchase products that are DOWNLOADABLE from esoundz.com and DownloadableSoundz.com.

The friend you list will also earn ePointz.

Ah, I see, thanks. Stupid question time. Say I purchase this right now (currently 5x1) and a few days/weeks later the targets are met for 6x1 -- does another Xpansion then "magically" appear in my account for download? Or am I locked to whatever it was at the time of my purchase?

Magic happens! You will get the extra (6X1).

Hey everyone, I finished my own updates to the Vocal Collection child presets. You can find them in the Banks & Patches section of KVR. Look for SampleTank and you will find them. Put them into the Sustained Vox folder, hit relist if needed, and enjoy (or cringe).
I added my own touch to them and corrected some tunnings on various presets. This is version 1 so if you find any presets that you think are terrible (based on what I did)- please tell me so I can look into.
You may find these way too bright or shrilly (is that a word)- or you might find they have more presence and fullness. You might think they are too loud- or you might think they just suck. If anything, it gives you some options without having to do anything.
Hopefully these will be useful for you Vocal Collection Xpansion Tank owners.
I do hope IK fixes the presets (and better yet, fix some of the raw material) but this should help.
It definately helped me to learn more about SampleTank in doing these. Although I imagine I missed a bunch of extra features (no idea if I can manipulate what the mod wheel can do).
These are pretty basic updates (used tone, upped levels, corrected tunnings).
So good luck with them!

They don't send you it. Since this is a group buy, you are buying for the "group". This means you did a nice thing for others but you don't get anything.

that makes a ton of sense

..thought it would be instantaneous but apparently I must wait

Depends whether you bought it from eSounds or from IK. You might have to wait until tomorrow for the eSoundz registration code. If you bought from IK, you might get an automated e-mail tonight.
