Re: Miroslav Philharmonik 2| IK Multimedia 2015/11/09 21:53:16 (permalink)
My 2 cents after listening to the demos - I like East West Symphonic Orchestra better than this (based on the demos). It certainly has a LOT more to offer than the original version (which was recently on sale for $49 US). The intro upgrade price is definitely a good value, but if I were paying full price I think I'd go with EWSO. But that's me.
 
The software does seem to be much easier to work with than the original - it has keyswitches for articulations! That I like. If I only had the original library, it would be a good upgrade. The full price of Miroslav 2 is about the same as the full price for EWSO Gold and IMHO EWSO Gold has more to offer. And EWSO is on sale for 1/2 price...

I already have East West Gold as well...and for $10 more I can get Albion Legacy,
which is 10 times the product...
 
Why didn't they post "sound demo's"?  Why take pre-orders "in the blind"?  Oh yes,
I forgot, it's "business" and, as we all know "business" is about "money"....

There's not even a video....very sad

Can you buy it from the SampleTank Custom Shop and use gear credits?

I was on the fence but I had some extra gear credits so I went ahead and pre-ordered in the Custom Shop.

Purrrfect Audio DAW here.  Wow!...

I qualify for the 50 jampoints which would give me 180.  So, what is it...30% or something that you can use jampoints for??


Yup the most you can use on $199 is 59 jam points.


I have always rounded it off higher (at say 60) and they always went through. Just sayin'



The CHEAPEST way to get this is through credits.  Buy 200 credits for $159.99 minus 48 jampoints = $111.99.
and you're all set...you get it for $112.  Disadvantage is you can't resell it buying with credits through the CS...


I am still confused about how to purchase this with both credits and jampoints.  I have 134 credits, plus 181 Jampoints.  Exactly how do I get this for the best USD$$?  Do I just purchase 75 gear credits, use 30% jampoints and that means $52.50 USD?  Is that the most ecomomical way or is there another route?
 
Thanks for helping me figure this out.

How do you actually achieve using jam points and gear credits in the Sample Tank Custom Shop?   I seem to only be able to choose one or the other.

FYI: IKMultimedia just updated the Miroslav2 page; the Sounds page lists the details of the various new instruments and articulations [Edit:  I am wrong; the Sounds page was there all along; my error was noted later in this thread.  Sorry.]

You can't use BOTH.  You can only use one or the other.  At checkout in the CS there is 
a spot for inputting Jampoints if you choose to "BUY" or you can choose "CREDITS".  
In the Store you can only use Jampoints.

Re: Miroslav Philharmonik 2| IK Multimedia 2015/11/10 06:36:25 (permalink)
So the most efficient thing to do is use JAMPOINTS to buy CREDITS and the price
gets down to $112 as outlined in my post above...

Darn, if I'd only known this was pending I could have saved some money instead of buying ST3 just so I could continue using Miroslav.
Same here.
This is first of ST3 products to really get me interested. That said between my Kirk Hunter stuff and EW composer cloud supplemented by Miroslave and the Kontakt factory library I am well covered. I will think long and hard before dropping the cash.

Oh, what the hey! I went ahead and blew all the jampoints I had and got the $199 upgrade for $139! The demos sounded really good for that price instrument. Purchase was so easy I hardly heard the sucking sound as IK sucked more money off of my credit card. LOL!

I'll have to pass on this. A year ago I'd have jumped on it, having been a longtime Miroslav user.
 
But when ST2 stopped working (after moving to Win 8.1), I had to look around for a replacement. That ended up being Kirk Hunter Concert Strings, which turned out to be a good choice. It has its limitations, as they all do, but it sounds great for the lush backing tracks I like so much. Sorry, Miroslav, you came along too late.


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

Anytime. This sounds good but too much for an unscheduled purchase this close to the main event. It will be difficult (but not impossible) to get me to buy anything this close to Thanksgiving.

I know IK has their own way of doing these upgrades but it's kinda starting to piss me off.
 
I bought IK Total bundle specifically to get Miro and used it for some time.  back in 2013.  2 years ago.
 
but that's not loyalty and offers no bonus or jam points.  same thing happened with Amplitube 4 and SampleTank 3.
 
So I think since IK is done with me that I am done with them.  I'll figure some way to sell of my products and make $20, maybe just maybe I can get a good meal out of a resale.  or may be not.
 
damn pisses me off to invest $399 (yes no sale price back in 2013, paid full price), an get the finger.
 
ugh.  okay rant over, moving on.. sorry.

Soon as we hear 'group buy' the conditioned response will kick in.

If someone mentions 'Black Friday' at the same time we'll all drown in a sea of salivation.

It should be automatic (but you do have to log on, like I see you have).  Since that's not the case that's why a ticket would be in order.  However, Miroslav Philharmonik CE is not the qualifier, did you purchase Miroslav Philharmonik (the full version) during the qualifying period?

Any details why?  Did you log on to your IK User Area and didn't see the JamPoints?  If so, just let me know what your IK username is or contact support and I'm sure it can be figured out.
