I own (and DIG) SVX but I couldn't help notice that it's listed as a legacy product in AT. Hopefully it's not going anywhere anytime soon, right?

The way I understand it, the Legacy section in the preset menu is just a repository for presets that were created prior to AT 3.0. I have SVX and Fender presets in the Legacy section from the original product installs. When you install AT 3, it looks for existing products and places all your pre-3.0 presets in the Legacy section. 3.0+ presets appear in the Collections section. The AT 3 install includes 3.0 presets for SVX and Fender if you already have those products installed. In other words, you'll see presets for SVX and Fender in both the Legacy and Collections sections. BTW, Legacy presets can't be seen in the AT plugin in Sonar.

I have a MOTU 896HD in very nice shape for sale. I'm asking $325 and buyer pays shipping and insurance. PM me. Pictures upon request. Works well with SONAR.

Ha aleef! I'm very real. Apparently you've neither read/don't understand or choose to disregard the ToS. Are you real?

It has to do more with the release times. We have since changed a lot and introduced the Custom Shop. Stuff before it are legacy, stuff after it are not. No need to worry about us discontinuing it. I personally LOVE Ampeg SVX. :)

Thanks! AmpliTube Fender and SVX are the AmpliTube's that made me fall in love with IK's guitar possibilities! I had a Pod, Pod XT, Pod XT Live, DigiTech RP-250 and a small V-Amp. Used them all live, After trying AmpliTube Fender and the StealthPedal I sold all of the modelers and haven't looked back since!

Hi Obi.
Please pay no attention to those tat say you're not welcome here.
The bakers don't seem to have a problem with you here so why should anyone else.
I like that you let us know of specials that save us money AND are also an avid user of these forums that happens to work for IK.
I've seen you post in numerous threads, help other members and never mention any IK products.
So in my opinion, you're no different than Scott Garrigus and his Sonar Power books/website postings.

Mike

Thanks! I do try and I do love these boards. They make me laugh more often than not and I am passionate about IK products. I was BEFORE I worked for IK by writing reviews on my personal blogs for products I liked. IK was one of my first reviews and still make the best stuff out IMO.

Is it weird that I am kinda interested in this even though it was posted as a diss in my direction? 

I haven't been banned or been contacted by anyone at Cakewalk for any reason. I'm sure if I was impacting these forums in a negative manner they would have.

When the tension escalated a few months ago, I've asked the moderators if they could do something about it. Either come out and give their blessings or ask Obi to stop posting here (I personally wouldn't want that).

Now, that is assuming that moderators weren't aware of the situation - but they obviously were.

Nothing happened. 

Silence implies consent. 

I think the type of "spamming" that is most offensive is a robotic mass dumping of information. 

IMO, Obi is not injecting himself in such a manner, but is instead offering a dialogue that leads to conversation, questions and answers. This is not offensive, but useful conversation resulting in a developing dialogue that many people are genuinely interested in. 

It is quite clear that may people are benefiting from these conversations with Obi, and desire to have him respond to their questions.

Those that find this dialogue offensive are in the vast minority, and can easily ignore the conversation by  quite simply  AVOIDING the thread altogether.[Is that easy, or what?]

Perhaps, as on other forums, there could be a dedicated place for such personal discussions as these that allow software companies to more intimately converse with users to answer questions and make simple announcements about products. Instead of guessing about what is happening we might instead know what is happening, and make our decisions based on informed conversation rather than mere speculation.

say if i made some really cool digital audio shirts,i started a thread saying,"hey guys check out these shirts for 20%off,youll love them.
what would you say to that?..be honest.

Who me?

I'd report it as spam, like I do regardless of whether it is iMedia convertors, running shoes or IK Multimedia doing the spamming.

Thanks for the support. I do my part on these forums and even recommend other companies products when it fits the OPs needs. From audio interfaces to hardware. I don't mean to intrude and by all means I left for a while but people were still asking for my presence. Though a few may not agree with me posting here I don't understand why they take time to discredit me, I would think it'd make more sense to ignore me. To each their own, I just wanted to share this deal. Ampeg SVX for under $50 and AmpliTube Fender for under $100 is a steal and the first guitar/bass programs from IK that I tried. I still use them all the time too. :)

Some people seriously need to get a life!  TOS Nazis are worse than "spammers".

There is always room for a compromise that will please everyone, more or less. Don't you think so, Jon?

Absolutely, there are plenty of company representatives on the forum that will join in and enlighten an already existing conversation on one of their products.

It is a shame that Obi is the only one of those that goes full out starting spam threads such as this one, he also likes to play to the divide and actually cause trouble as well and then plays the role of hapless victim and persecuted forum good guy.  Then he says he's 'back by popular demand'...ROFL.  'Back'?  Who sent him away?  Did he ever leave?

The people that are reacting to it by flagging this up are not the villains, look to the source.  This forum has stayed clean over the years by having a no advertising policy, you only have to look at boards that are over-run with spam now because somebody let them slide in the first place.

This is an awesome place for peers to share their experience with others regarding third party apps, it's the only place specifically for Cakewalk users.  I'm not going to stand by and let some liberty taking touter screw it up without saying something about it.

Obi is free to fall into line at any time just like the rest of the vendors that frequent and contribute to this board, HE chooses to continue to cross the line as this thread clearly shows.
