I am sorry to say this, but fortunately, Dynamics or Air are there to help the IK customers! When you have 2 laptops + main PC, and that you are about to upgrade the laptops with newer OS, you simply burn 5 authorizations in no time. This drove me crazy when I realized this. Oh, but this 5 authorizations is also there for paid products, such as Miroslav Vitous CE!! We work hard at what we do and we have a full team backing us up for support, questions and new exciting stuff all the time! Thanks for the support! We need it too just as much as you guys do! Same serial number so all the gear you buy will go to all other computers but different authorizations for each computer. Yes each computer should have its own authorization. Yup! 2 days to try it and then 2 months til you can try it out again. I'm guessing that once the time runs out you can't try it again for two months. For example, I'm trying the tap delay at the moment, which tells me I've got 1d 15h 36m left. With more gear coming every month! Exciting indeed! best modelled bass sound I've ever heard, by a good margin. Get this (free), buy the Ampeg SVT Classic. I wish I were! Life would be sooo much easier.especially with women. Just because its easy doesn't make it right. If I want to test Amplitube, "IK.3.0.VST.RTAS." will be such an easier way, unfortunately!! :( AND you can add any additional models as you go for a lot less than buying the full program. If I look at the amount of freeware amps on the market by now, I seriously wonder why anyone would spend money on a commercial amp-sim anymore.ĪmpliTube 3 Free has 24 gear models will all the exact same features our full version has. So why do these companies insist, I don't know. Why do they do this? It does not prevent people from stealing the product anyway! I wanted to "test" Sampletank 2.5XL, I just downloaded it, and it was up and running a few hours later (with no registration problem by the way). The thing is, I simply don't understand the goal of all this! So I decided to install it on my other computer (that is not supposed to be connected to the web), and bam, I had to reauthorize again ! In fact I was upset because after having downloaded my last IK product, and having installed it, authorized it, backuped it (with the accompanying email, registration and authorization numbers), I was really happy. It took an email to get the five erased and start over.įind something significant to bitch about.maybe? I have used IK stuff for awhile, on one or two occasions I actually went past five authorizations. It makes a lot of sense to get a free version and add what YOU want. I am surprised to see so many folks take a pissy attitude about this new concept. The free stuff has its strengths and weaknesses, as does the paid stuff, and of course, YMMV. Not a dig at yourself personally, but it gets old really fast when the online freeware militants constantly jump down the throats of anyone who dares to charge for their product. There is a lot of stuff in this new Custom Shop that freeware simply doesn't offer. Of course there is some good freeware out there, in my experience the really stellar stuff is scarce, which leaves us with a handful of very good ampsims, which for a lot of people just doesn't cut it.Īmplitube (and others) provide a consistent level of quality across a wide variety of amps, cabs and pedals, which is IMO well worth the asking price. If one simply needs good sounding guitar from time to time and doesn't mind what hardware brand exactly is emulated in a plugin, you can do it all with freeware. Seriously, of course if you have a special need like a plugin emulation of a particular hardware piece, you might have to spend money on it. So I am afraid you will have to do the searching yourself ) I have no idea what that is and no intention to look for it. I'd have loved to have tried it but oh well. Wow, don't they realize there are some folks who just don't want to connect thier main (expensive) DAW comps to the net. However, in order to try new gear models, you must be connected to the Internet at all times. Once purchased, the models will continue to work inside AmpliTube even without being connected to the Internet. If you like, you can connect to the Internet just to browse and buy gear models in the Custom Shop. You can use the latest version of AmpliTube without an internet connection, but you will not be able to access the Custom Shop including the RESTORE MY GEAR function. Yes, you MUST have an active internet connection to use the Custom Shop since it is web-based. "Does my studio computer have to be connected to the internet to use Custom Shop? Looks like your computer does need to be connected to the web to use the custom shop. I have a number of IK products on my DAW coputer which is not connected to the web.ĮDIT: I may have spoke to soon.
