I have looked around but can't find anything about the acoustic pianos pedal support. Curious if any of the pianos support Half Pedaling, Sostenuto, or soft pedal? Maybe IK can provide an answer.
Kind regards,
Rick
They do not. Thank you for the question and interest.
A Sincere Thank You for the quick reply. Kind regards, Rick

No I didn't "cave in". My business requires me to have the latest and most varied stuff for my clients to avail themselves of. If someone comes in with tracks done in ST3 I need to have it on my DAW as well, just in case. Plus for me, as I've alluded before, it's a tax write off. I was never planning to NOT upgrade...well, unless they'd charged a really obscene amount of money. But I've only taken issue with the constant promising then rescinding those promises for years and at a dizzying rate. We'll see what all these years has brought us in the new and improved ST3...but so far...it doesn't look like much. I'll keep ya posted.

Reading the blurb on the IK site I spotted this.
With 17 string instruments from Miroslav Philharmonik
13 impressive Miroslav Philharmonik orchestral Brass — like French Horn,
Flugelhorn, Trombone, Bass Trombone, Trumpet, Muted Trumpet, Tuba, Muted
Tuba and Trumpets, Trombone ensembles.
14 great sounding orchestral instrument and 75 sample sets reprogrammed
from Miroslav Philharmonik: Bassoon, Contrabassoon, Clarinet, Bass
Clarinet, Flute, Bass Flute, English Horn and also Oboe and Piccolo with
Bassoons as well as Flutes and Clarinets sections
It does say the Miroslav instruments "have been reprogrammed to take advantage of SampleTank 3's new articulations" but is it not pushing it to call it pushing it to call it "new" content? Maybe there should be an extra discount for Miroslav owners

Owners of the full version of Miroslav are eligible for the lowest pricing (Upgrade). Sweetwater has been slow to update this, but it's mentioned on the IK pricing page.

While i was being tounge in cheek someone upgrading from Miroslav, as opposed to one of the other products that qualify for the upgrade price may have a slight reason to feel short changed. Also as it appears that with Miroslav, repackaged samples are "new" content, what about the Sample Tanjk 2.5 content. Is it part of the 33GB or not?

Does this mean that those that have Miroslav and ST2.5 get double discounts ?

Of course it does - all you have to do is wait a month or two, then you will be eligible for the group buy / bogo sale of the century, which will probably be better than double discount!
I really don't know why anyone would buy this just yet - specification wise it does not seem as advanced as Mach 5 or Kontakt and the upgrade price is most certainly not in no brainer territory.
I've basically done without it since going 64bit years ago, I'm sure I can wait a bit longer!
I'll wait for the inevitable sale...........

Preorder pricing runs until release (July), then Introductory pricing runs for 2 months after that. After that we are at the full pricing, and all is detailed at this link so it will likely be a good bit longer than a couple of months for a deal like the preorder pricing: http://www.ikmultimedia.com/news/?item_id=4109

And as I have been able to set my SampleTank up on an old 32bit machine, then link it to my 64bit machine via Vienna pro, I can use it if I want. But in all honesty I seem to use it less and less these days - still use SampleTron, which with the expansions is good. Cheers Nigel

IK has wound up enough of it's customers with the heavy discounting..
RUBBISH transferral procedure.. i.e it costs as much to transfer to buy it, I wanted to give a friend a spare product for free.. and couldn't
constant ads for i-app stuff and forgetting it's other customers
jam points that are selective in what they can be used for..
worse.. not allowing re-downloads of products (inc. libraries YOU own) without jumping thru hoops or being charged.. esoundz don't / haven't charged me.. so I'd rather buy via them than IK directly!
yep I own a lot of products by IK but prefer how others do business ... u-he, d16, psp, fabfilter and melda to name a few that others REALLY could learn from.
IK has really done nothing to make me "want" their products now.. thats the sad bit.
I am glad that we are not the only ones in the UK who have to suffer the same info-mericals bit :)

Oh I understand, I was only outlining what we do have laid out pricing- and timing-wise at this point. I don't know what the future holds for sales, etc so I understand where you are coming from. Didn't mean to imply that I did not.

Transfer fees are going to be removed and sound reactivation will be extended to 1 year with only a single reactivation credit beyond that year to reactivate ALL sound sets in your account. Just in case that was missed when posted elsewhere. More news will come on that as soon as all of it is rolled out, but thought you'd like to know.

I think removing the transfer fees is a good thing.......it seemed like the transfer fees were about the same price as the product(s) itself (on the group buys). At least now, people who can't afford ST3 can get some of the individual instruments while the seller isn't hit that hard on the sale. Good move IK!!

You get a limited amount of time to download your library when you purchase (30 days, I think). After that, you need to pay a "reactivation fee" to get the download links to work again. If you back up properly, then you should never have to pay this fee.

Personally, I never felt you should have to pay that fee period. You already paid to DL the product and if something bad happens you should be able to log in to your account and DL that library you paid for.
I can't see people abusing this as not too many really want to wait while those libraries DL. As I understand it a fee is charged for each library so if you own several it could get expensive. But, it is another way to make a buck off of someone that is already dealing with a bad situation that caused them to lose the library in the first place.
Yes they do warn you to make a backup, and you should anyway, or there will be a fee to DL after 30 days. (sounds like they are considering moving that out to 1 year, not sure what the thought process is there. Why charge it at all?) Just another IKM policy I don't care for but that is my just personal opinion and one of many reasons I choose not to deal with them any longer.

I had dvd's of the sound libs go bad on me (2 sets) due to the writer, wouldn't see em on another machine.. so yer "stuff" does happen. I'd be highly suprised reg'd customers would abuse such a scheme.. yep bandwith is not free.. but then many other companies manage to give free downloads WITHOUT any time limit.. cakewalk included and they aren't small files.
I can't trust IK *NOT* to do discounting soon after release, so I would rather keep my money for a few months.. you'll find christmas seems a good time to buy pro audio stuff ;-)

Bandwidth as an excuse? "I'm sorry but you'll have to pay a fee to download the software you already own." I never understood that. How many times do people actually download them? Or have to because they had some puter disaster? Seems cheap chiseling to me. When I can though, I'll end up buying it.
I guess you guys must have packs of dogs outside your headquarters because your butts are so tight when you f*rt, only the dogs can hear it.

Thank you. I did not know the terminology. I have the discs from when I purchased Total Studio and other IKM years ago. I did go ahead and ordered today ST3 boxed version form Sweetwater (free shipping). I know it will not be released until August in box for, but that is fine as my internet connection is too slow to download 33gigs. Again, thanks for the clarification.

We're changing it to a year. That's at least good news and I don't feel it is chiseling, it is a move in the right direction. There was no need to insult us for explaining the upcoming change.

It is a step in right direction, however I don't know of any other company that charges to download ever. Of the stuff I own, esoundz, native instruments, steinberg, toontrack, fxpansion, addictive drums, various tutorial companies don't charge anything. Those that do have limited download periods all have always given me another download if I needed one for some reason without cost.

Oddly enough, it's ik's handling of constant, vicious attacks here that makes me lean towards purchasing. Ik has made some mistakes but most companies would not deal with the lynch mob mentality year after year.

Has my inability to admit the power of fart jokes (and neglecting to make the easy "never miss the -skid-mark" reference above when finally admitting it) taken us down a notch though?

Dubdisciple - Vicious attacks? IK deserved everything they got. They did themselves no favors by stirring the pot with snarky comments and lying about release dates.
This isn't a lynch mob. Go back and read the old threads. You sound like another IK-planted fanboy.
