If it only affects the stand along mode, I can live with that and without Quick Time(which is already gone).
I assume that IK and Celemony etc et al will have to make some adjustments and we'll all have to live with that.

Wow.  Such a warm and cozy place we have here.
 
With regard to the question that triggered such a loving response - I don't have any more information than what I posted.  Perhaps IK Support will:  http://www.ikmultimedia.com/contact-support/mi/

The ribbing is for your pleasure, not mine.

AmpliTube 4 does not require QuickTime so it is no longer an optional component during the install process.  For T-RackS, however, it is used for importing MP3 files in the standalone version so if you remove QuickTime on your Windows system you will no longer be able to do so.



Years ago, a developer could pretty much count on the presence of Quicktime on a user's system, Mac or Windows. I'm going to guess that, based on your statement, that the Quicktime method for importing MP3s saved either the licensing cost for an MP3 codec or requiring the user to separately install the LAME codec (which I've done plenty of times, anyway).
 
If that's the case, hopefully, a simple mod to use the LAME codec could add that capability back, since we know that Quicktime for Windows is gone for good.

This situation isn't going to affect my enjoyment of all my IK stuff. I'll just do other stuff if there's a problem.

OK, I uninstalled QT yesterday, and today I opened a project with Addictive Drums in it, and found they were no longer recognized.  This was true in both my cwp. files and my cwb. files, as well as my backup files.  So, I did a system restore to the day before I uninstalled QT, and now my AD files show up again.  Has this happened to anyone else, and if so, is there a way to make that not happen again?  Grateful for any advise.

Since AmpliTube 4 is newer than T-RackS 4 (even if we've updated or will update soon, I mean the base 4.0 version that it is built upon was out before AT4) it does make sense that AT4 would be the product that no longer needs QuickTime.  However, I really don't have specific information but I did relay the QuickTime demise to the teams responsible for both products so if anything they are aware and I'm hoping the next iteration of the section where you import audio in T-RackS is similar to that functionality in AT4 and can evolve.  I just don't have all of the specifics at this point and could be making a couple of assumptions so I'll keep asking.  Oh, the point was also that if anybody does also ask support that they too would relay the concern and get an idea of how many people utilize the standalone to process MP3s and decisions can be made accordingly.
 
I'm on Mac and typically only import WAV files into the standalone but I'll also continue to inquire about this issue, of course.

I have been remodeling all day and just opened a project to check. Everything seemed fine. AD2 showed up and played, though I didn't try any IK stuff. Hopefully in the morning before, I get back to redoing my breezeway, I'll explore some more.

ps My AD2 is 64 bit and still Midi, not bounced to audio yet.

So, I uninstalled QT7 and am thinking I don't need to keep Apple Updater, nor Apple  Application Support, either, correct?




That would depend if you have anything needing Bonjour.  It's a midi over lan type thing.
