SampleTank 4 on the way

The memory issue in REAPER I brought up several pages ago is now rectified in 03. ST4 now releases memory properly in that DAW.

IK, the best way to destroy the prestige of Sampletank is to have released version 4, when I bought Syntronik it worked perfectly well and never crashed or I had any serious error, but with this version of Sampletank 4 I doubt very much that I will trust this product again, there are other synthesizers out there that promise many things and fulfill them, you IK, have only remained in promises, ST4 is a plugin fiasco, a disastrous product, if I were CEO of IK , I would ask for the resignation of all the team that was in charge, a true failure.

Misdirected hostilities. I am an end user trying to get my money’s worth.
I have no bone to pick, only a hole to fill.

Thank you, I’ll take that luck.

I do not disagree with what you said and think you are justifiablely pissed off... but where do we go from here? Burn it down? Then we’re out the money. Work to find solutions and press IK where it matters, in the pocketbook? That takes time.
As you stated, boycotting IK products and damaging public reputation to influence others to also not buy from them. I have been eyeing those new smart monitors they just came out with 7-8 hundred dollars, hesitant to invest in those? Yes

Now, If IK rectifies the situation with a solution that satisfies the offended in terms that are perceived as generous, should we continue to hate a company that works toward redemption? If they actually do. Or does the old saying “once bitten twice shy” always apply?

Are you on Windows or MacOS? Thanks!

My problem seems to be fixed now, apparently, I have to change midi channel in daw., from Midi All: All channel to my keyboard name, never have to that before on other plugins.


I'm curios about an other thing, volume difference on patches

Is this normal in volume one is super quiet.

I have not waded in ST4 yet, waiting for the waters to calm. But my experience in ST3 was that many of the ST2 legacy sounds were at a lower volume when played. Some much lower. Musette is a ST2 sound according to the ST4 instrument pdf.

This question about the difference in volume on patches has been raised internally. Thank you.

[Peter - IK Multimedia]

They have confirmed the above with that sound and its level issue.

So doing a fresh ST4 Max USB install on a new computer and I haven't installed my prior copy of ST3 yet. How would I best going about doing this, what sequence should I follow from the USB version?

Register your SampleTank 4 serial number first. Then, I would recommend downloading and installing the 4.0.3 latest version from your IK User Area first followed by Instruments Installer 1.1. You can then skip the application installer on your USB stick.

Then, you can run the sound library installers from your USB stick to install all the sounds (there should be a SampleTank 4 sound library installer and a SampleTank 3 sound library installer, run each of those).

Next, download the additional pianos available in your IK User Area (these are the additional files that would not fit on the USB stick):

Additional Piano Instruments
Additional Piano Samples Part 1
Additional Piano Samples Part 2
Additional Piano Samples Part 3
Additional Piano Samples Part 4
Additional Piano Samples Part 5
Additional Piano Samples Part 6
Additional Piano Samples Part 7
Additional Piano Samples Part 8
Additional Piano Samples Part 9
Additional Piano Samples Part 10

Finally, download the latest sound updater (1.3) from your IK User Area and run that.

Just wanted to update everybody who is waiting for news - we are aiming to have 4.0.4 available early next week. Thank you for your patience.

Just note that depending what you are updating from there are potentially a lot of files you will have to download, not just the piano (all the ST3 MAX packs for example if you are upgrading from just ST3...this was about 15 downloads for me, maybe 30-50 gigs in addition to the pianos and the USB stick

Note that SampleTank 3 MAX sound content is included on the SampleTank4 MAX USB. There's an installer for SampleTank 4 MAX Sound Content and another installer for SampleTank 3 MAX Sound Content as I described above.

The only additional downloads would be the ones I mention in my previous post.
