Anyway, the only way to get the Squids Extras is to join on http://www.esoundz.com/details.php?Prod ... ode=XT2KVR

There is yet another surprise relating to esoundz. I cannot reveal what it is yet but I will sometime this coming week. I want to thank everyone that has purchased this from esoundz for your support. I hope you enjoy the extras! I also want to thank those that have the libraries for helping to explain the cross-over. I should have done that better or perhaps left out certain ones that were cross-over but... in the end I wanted you guys to have a huge choice. It should be fairly obvious on most of them which are. I'll see about providing some sound lists this week to help.

I wish I would have known that BEFORE ordering through IK

Why is there even a way to order through IK when there are so many extra provided through esoundz? Theres so many doors to get to the product yet some of them aren't advertised in the same light as others..

Thanks VitaminD! That is exactly what I needed to know.

The 004 Honky Tonk Pno is the same as one of the ones included in Sonik Synth 2. So I have all of those. Yippie!

Oh man, this is great! It took some doin' to get it to work (had to check the .log file as suggested and change the .ini file to fix the path) but now that it works I'm as happy as a pig in slop

Thank you!! Much gratitude for this post

Don't thank me, thank asseca - he really deserves your ePointz for doing all the hard work.

PS: have your tried browsing ST2 GUI using your keyboard cursor keys yet?

Well , it started off as an IKMM Group Buy - purchasable from IKMM online or from selected resellers and registering at IKMM. Squids came along and to lure people to buy through eSoundz he added a bonus or two. IKMM is perfectly free to up the ante (they have already by offering a 6x1 bonus level).

I will definitely remember him next time I buy

I haven't quite grasped navigating the GUI with cursor keys but Im using the mouse wheel and arrow keys like crazy now. Funny thing, I can't remember life without em after only 1 day. How did the IKM developers miss these small but crucial details anyway

i payed 25.00 with ik jampoints. i have ss2 and sample moog, so i'm not worried about the extras. i may have to cash in the rest of my jampoints for a 2nd go in case nothing else comes along before they expire. however, i can't think of anything i need beyond the 5 sets i chose and the 6th set i will choose. i may do it as a thank you to ik. i have an unhealthy love for ik

Oh I see.. I thought Squids was an owner/employee of IK though?? Am I getting people mixed up??

Squids is not owner or employee of IK. Squids runs Sonic Reality/esoundz/downloadablesoundz - they make GREAT SampleTank-format sounds and loops (like the ones in this group buy) and do a heck of a job as a FANTASTIC IK dealer. Among other things, but we'll focus on the IK-based stuff for this moment

Squids ALWAYS ups the ante in these group buys, and even day-to-day offers membership levels and epointz incentives to customers buying through esoundz and downloadablesoundz.
