I'm not buying then installing just to throw away the boxed version. Discs are a storage medium just like usb and external hard drives. There are multiple options anyway.

I can't be arsed reading 200 pages but that's where I am at.

I think this is exactly the reason most bought into the pre-order; to have the 64 bit version to use their old ST2 software on a modern 64 bit machine.

That was my excuse

It was $99. Plus I got another 10 off for buying a Sweetwater gift certificate.

This is exactly why I am not buying it. I'll spend $15 on jBridge and suffer with the old UIs.

I will never buy a new instrument again, but this might have to be the exception just to make my life easier when i do want to access those 32GB of St2 sounds i have.

$99 was the intro price, back in July. It's gone up now, to something like $129, may be more.
I'll just use JBridge.

I'd have done the same except I couldn't get Live to stop crashing with jbridge. NOT that that was jbridge's fault. Hard to say since I was having so much problems with Live anyway.

But yeah, if jbridge works for you, definitely save the money!

Hi...my Sweetwater rep wasn't aware that it had started shipping...I will check with him again. Thanks for the update.

Hi...I just confirmed with my Sweetwater rep that at least with Sweetwater orders, the boxed version is still not shipping yet and we are September 12

Yes.

Haha understandable.

I would like to play all of my Xpansion Tank sounds in the ST3 Free (or at least lower cost version) too.

To save reading the whole thread:
ST3 Free can only Import its own instruments (there are weekly releases of more instruments), not Xpansion Tanks nor the old libraries (MP, SMoog etc) etc.
