AD2 w/X3P & Platinum

Quick AD2 question.  I upgraded to X3P and got AD2 as part of the bundle.  I've now upgraded to Platinum (still waiting) which includes AD2.  Since I already have AD2 am I able to download a greater number of kits?  Or no?

    I just did my selections yesterday for this AD offer.  In your "My Products" folder on the XLN site, it also shows you what you already have registered, which is real handy when trying to select which options to go with.

    Thanks guys.  I should have worded my question better.  I already have AD2.  Platinum comes with an AD2 bundle that includes AD2 + 3/3/3.  I'm wondering if those of us that already have AD2 might get more than the 3/3/3 since we already have AD2.  You know, only 4/4/4 in lieu of AD2/3/3/3.
     
    Doesn't hurt to ask, right?  Maybe it's a question for XLN.

    I think if you didn't already own AD2, you wouldn't be offered the 3/3/3 deal, so I don't see why you would be entitled to more.

    I see.  I was under the impression that Platinum included the AD2 Producer bundle which is AD2 + 3/3/3

    The answer to your question then is no, you just get 3/3/3. Also you get AD2 + 3/3/3 regardless of if you had it before it's the same for everyone :)

    Thanks for responding Greeny.  Just so I know, are you in a position to know this with the same certainty your answer conveys?  Or is this how you believe it should be?

    AFAIK the 3/3/3 deal is what CW was licensed to offer with Platinum by XLN

    I read a thread the other day about this and I gathered from the conversation that if you already own AD2 you get to pick 3+3+3 on top of what you already have. I remember one guy was in a quandary because he already owned every single kit.

    So this was confusing to me...but not no more.  This is what happens when you upgrade.
    Sonar Platinum comes and you get an email with serial numbers,  Head to the XLN site and go to your account, input your new serial and then you get to pick 3/3/3....OK I got it!
     
    So the guy who has everything should just hold on and as XLN creates new Kits etc...he'll be able to pick them up for nadda.  Just keep that Serial Number handy.  The serial number that is not a serial number, but a purchase number 'cause my AD2 already has a number.
     
    Clear as mud.

    Yes, you get to pick 3 more ADpaks, MIDIpaks, and kit pieces. It's a great value.

    Very happy with my AD2 freebies! Great deal, but I don't blame anyone for asking...you never know.

    So AD1 included with Sonar X3 is definitely not updated?
    AD2 is entirely separate?

    I think the confusion stems from AD1 actually coming with three kits in the most basic version. For AD2, you can get a single kit with just the AD2 engine, nothing else.
    You're not getting the update from AD1 that updates your basic three kits. You're not getting "AD2 + 3/3/3" because AD2 by itself is nothing, just an empty engine. You're getting 3/3/3 and if you didn't have the engine yet you'll need to install it.
