IK revives SampleTank Free, removing limitations, adding 500

Hope this is OK, seems there are SampleTank users and some interest in it here...

Also, the new Authorization Manager! No more copying and pasting long authorization codes or jumping between web pages and the old wizard.

I realize you're a real person but creating an account just to throw a "hey guys" thread out there is most likely going to get some BS posted shortly after...just wanted to let ya know

Thanks for the heads up. Just thought it was useful information and I can answer questions about our stuff or at least get them to the right people if I cannot.

I've never used sampletank or anything else you mentioned, but it sounds like it could be useful. Thanks for the info!

**** sampletank. get an mpc.

i think its pretty dope for free

sth to mess around with if youre just getting into music

I kind of dig how some soft synth companies are offering their synths for free with full capabilities but limited sounds. I use kontact player because of the same deal. it gives you a chance to customize your sounds from different sources (even your own) meanwhile you get a fully functional tool that maybe otherwise you wouldnt have used in normal circumstances. I'm sure it allows the company to make a bit more doe too by branding and selling soundsets in smaller chunks. dope. i dig it. I just got this info in my inbox from the mailing list anyways... I'll check it out

Thanks, I figured it would be useful for some here.

this dosent allow u to record in? only use sounds youve already compiled... it's free so i cant complain... or can i!?!?!

Shiit I'll cop,, for free? I'm in.

Nevermind,, fukk this garbage. I spent 30 minutes trying to install it. The authorization manager crashes over and over again. You guys are better off getting this from a torrent.

(no offense)
