I thought sampletank 2.0 did not work so good in acid. Does anyone use sampletankt 2.0 or 2.5 with good results? When i could not get reason 3.0 to work with acid i stated looking into alternatives, sampletank was rumored to be iffy. battery 1 works great with acid but battery 3(not so good) I would love to use sampletank if I new, i would not have added issues using it in acid. Thanks |

oops - that's the danger of passing on such news items.... meanwhile i've purchased and installed and SampleTank 2.5 is working: some beautiful sounds however i'm not doing any fancy - just straight away recording sounds and bits & pieces in AP7 |

I have used SampleTank in Acid for several years. Never had a problem. I also have Miroslav, Sonic Synth, and SampleMoog. All have ST engins, and they all work fine too. All of the instruments use slightly different versions of ST. BTW, the GB has now reached 1436. 1500, and 1 X 4, isn't far away! |

I have been using 2.5 and it works fine. But, to be on the safe side, when I get to over 8 tracks using ST 2.5 I use the FREEZE TRACK option. Why not? it's a feature that is very good work tool. |

I followed the link and it looks interesting but I am completely unfamiliar with Sample Tank. This offer seems to be an expandable version of Sample tank. Does that mean I need something else i.e. the original Sample Tank) to use these sounds? How can I use them with Acid. Please forgive my ignorance. Thanks, Kit |

A new version of SampleTank which is SampleTank 2 XT - it is fully expandable (can load all SampleTank-formatted sounds, including these new Xpansion Tanks of course) and it comes with 1GB of sounds itself. You get this FREE with the Xpansion Tanks, so you don't need a full SampleTank version to join in. Cool stuff! |

Hello again, I have one more question. How does Sample Tank 2 XT work with Acid? Is it like a soft synth or something else? Thanks, Kit |

In Acid first add a miditrack and then choose Sample tank as soft synth.. edit: Sofar i've choosen: Acoustic Guitar collection 2 Cinematik Collection Omni Synth Symphony Strings any other recommandations for the fifth collection? Message last edited on4/27/2010 9:20:16 AM byrsp. |

SampleTank works fine for me with ACID. I also use SonicSynth. I think when ACID searches for VSTi's the first time SampleTank did not respond quickly enough and so ACID disabled it but I went back in and enabled it and it worked after that. Don't forget you can join the group buy multiple times! It's now at 4-to-1 so for $49 USD you get to select 4 of the 15 expansion tanks. If you join again, you get to pick 4 more. If it reaches 5-to-1 you can pick up all 15 tanks for $150. That's not a bad deal. I joined and am trying to figure out which 4 I want. I'm thinkin': Cinematik Collection OmniSynth 2 Vintage Keys Collection World Instrument Collection ~jr |

I join this group buy but after a couple of hours no confirmation email has shown up though the deal is listed in my esoundsz account. Never having joined a group buy before would someone please tell me what happens? Do we need to wait for the final date to access the goods? I get nervous when I purchase something and I don't receive immediate email confirmation. Thanks, Kit |

Thanks, the product instructions are a PDF that begins: Thank you for purchasing the XPansion Tank 2 Group Buy. A serial number will soon be located in your eSoundz download area. Once you have received your serial number at eSoundz, please continue to the instructions below. No serial number. I wonder how long soon is. Kit Message last edited on4/29/2010 11:15:30 PM byKit. |

> No serial number. I wonder how long soon is. I received a confirmation email eventually that had my serial number in it so you don't have to keep checking back, when the serial number is added, the email is also sent out. I joined last weekend and I might have waited until Monday to get my email so it might take a day. Remember esoundz is taking your order but IK Multimedia will be filling it so I'm sure there is a delay while it goes through both of their systems so that the key works when you get it. ~jr |

Got my serial number today, registered it but couldn't download anything. Never got a confirmation email from esoundz. I wonder if I will fare better with IK Multimedia support. I was initially tempted to join twice but am put off by the hassle. Kit |

Once you register the serial number at IK Multimedia, go to your IK user area then click the "Multibox" icon, this will take you to a page to make your selections.

> What-da-ya say? You wanta go for it? Go for it!!! (you know you want it!) I just jumped in for the second time tonight. Originally I got: (1) Cinematik Collection (2) OmniSynth 2 (3) Vintage Keys Collection (4) Vocal Collection (5) World Instrument Collection (6) Symphony Strings 2 Tomorrow when my conformation email comes I'm gonna pick up: (1) Acoustic Drums 2 (2) Piano Collection 2 (3) Bass Collection 2 (4) Acoustic Guitar Collection 2 (5) Electric Guitar Collection 2 (6) Vintage Rock Grooves? or ??? not sure what to pick for the 6th. I already had version 1 of some of these collections from the Sonik Synth 2 group buy last year but version 2 almost doubled in size for most of them so I figured they are higher quality and some more sounds that I don't have. (and you can never have too many sounds) ;-) ~jr |

I never did get a confirmation email but have managed to get the sounds. I'm seriously thinking of joining one more time but wonder if there is any way to convert the Sample Tank loops into wav format. I'm only really used to sing Sony Loops and dropping them onto the timeline so am not sure how to get the best out of Sample Tank. Thanks, Kit |

This is insane! We just hit 7 for 1 and IK is extending the Group Buy until June 6th and if another 1,000 registrations come in before June 6th, the Group Buy increases to 8 for 1. So... do we go for 8-1? lol ~jr |
