Groove 3 has a $10 no brainer on mastering using ST3. I picked that up and I was amazed at how much I did not know about all the different VSTs capabilities. Especially the Opto compressor. Definitly worth the $10!

Although, one project needed to go back to the mixing stage IMO. Great, informative video.


If you need anymore tutorials, use coupon code "mtsave50" and you get an additional 50% off (I ended up getting 3 including this....all under $20).

Finally managed to log in and buy the upgrade using FF. I had some troubles there w/ Safari in the past but usually, a few tries and it'd work. Not this time. Anyone else having problems w/ IK's web site?

Haven't had the chance to test it, just installed and authorized it.

Very cool Rain...please do post once you played with them a bit. (I'm using IE/Google Chrome and haven't had any issues with the IK site).

I think I might like it more than the 2A actually, seeing that it should the basic fundamental qualities but be more tweakable. My guess is that, since it's based on a custom design, it cannot benefit from the same hype as a regular LA-2A clone, but it may very well be superior in a few ways.

Similarly, I find myself using Logic's compressor in Vari-Mu mode all the time, even if I have IK's fairchild model.

Pulled the trigger on the crossgrade and went for the G3 vid too, though the coupon code didn't work. T3 Deluxe was back ordered at AM so that gonna be a week or more before it arrives here. I'll watch the vid in the meantime. Was thinking of going all-out for the T-Racks book too, but decided to hold off for now. There's supposed to be an informative user manual included with Deluxe. ----------------- Rain, are you referring to the Opto?

@IK Obi

When I get this program later this month, can I give my black or white compressor to a friend? I already have both anyway.

Notation, the original DAW. Everything else is just rote. We are who we are and no more than another. Humans, you people are crazy.

Hi Gtrpima, considering that the Black or White is a bonus if the group-buy reaches 2,000 and we've yet to reach 200, you might want to hold onto those guys for while. Your heart is right place though :-) ------------ EDIT: Correction, the count now stands at 336. We were at 185 yesterday, so who knows? It's possible, i'm certainly rooting for 2000... I bet your friend is too.

Typically, two-thirds to three-fourths of the signups happen in the last week of a group buy. Everybody waits to see if it's gonna fly before committing. So 2,000 is not impossible, despite the slow start.


All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

I was thinking of waiting it out also, but then i figured that at $79 delivered, it's an absolute no-brainer even if the bonus isn't reached. When you consider the Groove3 T-Racks Mastering vid for 10 bucks (normally 40), it starts to get silly. Good stuff, I say. --------- EDIT: The Groove3 coupon code didn't work for me, but I emailed customer service about it, hopefully they'll kick me back $5 towards the new Mixing With X1 video.

Groove3 got back to me and reimbursed me for the $5 and put an additional order thru at 50% off after the deal was expired. Good customer service over there.

Interesting question. I guess I could do the same.

You have to license transfer them - so it would cost your mate the price of the transfer token. I think I've got 3 of the same plug-in given away as freebies. I may have others doubled up for the same reason. I'd much prefer to move them on.

@Guitarpima & Rain - Yes, you can give it to a friend but one of you will have to pay the license transfer. We are just under 500 right now so help spread the word to hit 2,000!

I guess the promo using the code "mtsave50" is over since it is not responding now?

I believe so....
I was able to use it last week (2/10/12), but a few days after that, I couldn't.

If you use the code "Deal" at checkout at Audiomidi and buy the crossgrade T-racks, then you can get it for approx. $79 (plus shipping).

You can't beat that, folks!

http://www.audiomidi.com/Products/ikm_tracks3-cug/

Just got an email from esoundz.com.  They are having a 20% off everything sale that goes through 2/23.  They have T-Racks Delux listed but they don't list the crossgrade offer, only the basic purchase for $200 ($160 after discount).  Hopefully this is an oversight and they'll get ithe crossgrade deal added.
 
Maybe if a few of us send a query about this, they'll decide to it's worth their while to add this to the list of IK deals they've got on offer.

@Guitarpima & Rain......
IF this group buy does actually go through, I'd love to buy one of your licenses off of either one of you so I could have both too.


Please PM me and let me know.
Thanks.

AudioMidi has a $99 crossgrade from any competing product. I just got the email, but I don't know how long the deal lasts.

IK stuff is included, but not the $99 crossgrade offer.  I e-mailed them to ask if they had overlooked it.  They responded (almost immediately ... nice people) that they are not allowed to offer the crossgrade (they said they even asked but were told no). 
 
If you don't qualify for the crossgrade, then the price is $160, not $200.  If you have no IK products (in other words, if you're one of the two or three computer music enthusiasts in the world who don't ), then esoundz is offering a great price, even if the magic 2000 number isn't reached.

Re:Group Buy Time at IK 2012/02/19 00:17:50 (permalink)
I recently got Nomad Factory's Studio Pack III and was wondering how these plugs compare to IK's T-Racks Deluxe? I understand there's certain characteristics/mojo  each has and depending on the needed application which are unique to each, but do you prefer  one over the other? (for those that have both)

I go to the Black 76 & Magnetic II on almost everything, and I'm really after the White more than the actual T-Racks Deluxe.....just wanted to what your thoughts were on NF's SP III comapred to T-Racks?

Hi Gtrpima and Rain, I checked into the license transfer and the fee is 50 bucks a pop. Considering the price for the whole Deluxe package at the moment, it doesn't make sense. I wanted to transfer my 3 duplicates to a friend. And besides, I paid only $40 each for the singles, so I guess I'll eat the doubles.

Hi Mesh.
Why not just purchase the White flat out?
It's only $99.
Cheaper than buying TRacks.


Besides, it doesn't look good for the group buy.
I got lucky and bought TRacks through AudioMIDI and between some promo code and their usual low pricing I got it for $79.
But it looks as if I'm going to end up buying both the Black and White for $99 each anyway.

Well, I wouldn't pay to give the doubles, but when someone's ready to absorb that $50 fee, I have no issue giving the plug-in to a buddy here on these boards. It's useless to me anyway, and that still  $49 off the retail price for whoever buys the transfer.


There are probably others I could do w/o, but the transfer fees are prohibitive. Besides, who hasn't got almost all the IK plugs they want by now? ;)

Yep, I see what you mean, if someone is interested in only one plugin. But if they want two (or more) it's doesn't make sense ATM, they could get them all for that price. Also quite often the Singles can be had for $50 or less on special (I picked mine up for $40 each). If they allowed us to apply IK points to the license transfer purchase and cut it down to $25 that would be a sweet price for a Single, but I didn't inquire about that.
