Ok...you have to ask the question
 
WHY did IK wait until the product was released AND everyone had already pre-ordered
to come out with the A4 + Mesa and the Deluxe versions?  To further add insult to injury
there is no upgrade path to EITHER ONE.  We should have, at the bare minimum, had
the opportunity to pre-order these...AND now, since it is "ex post facto" should get
a decent upgrade offer on them...but NOPE...IK screws the pooch again...

The more I see how this company does business the more I dislike them...

As stated above, if you feel you would have purchased one of the bundles mentioned in this thread instead of the AmpliTube 4 preorder, please contact IK via the contact page or via the support system and someone will gladly assist you.
 
I hope this doesn't kill the burgeoning popcorn business expected from this thread.

I'll be back with my popcorn. This is gonna have more action than a James Bond movie.

Lightly salted with butter, please.  

Better hold off the salt & butter for me........my blood pressure is already hitting the roof and now going into full blown cardiac arrest.
 
Somebody please revive me...........I certainly won't mind if you're BIAS about it.

I don't see any indication that the A4 Deluxe amps, other than the British Collection, are anything other than the old existing A3 models. They are not re-worked versions expressly for A4. I do, however, agree that if the content from A3 has been axed down to what I see that a new customer is going to be putting more money on the table for the same amps we got in A3. I really think the value point for buying A4 is not near as strong as it was for A3, as far as content. This is going to hurt sales I'm sure.
I'm still waiting for the upgrade to get ALL the 29 speakers we were supposed to get. IK said they would fix that. Maybe they will fix this as well. Time will tell. Meanwhile, I wait for the other shoe to drop which will be ALL A3 amps have been re-worked for Hyper-Realistic performance and you will have to re-purchase all amps in the Custom Shop to benefit from A4! I hope it doesn't go that way but I sure suspect something along those lines. 

I believe Pete mispoke...those 29 speakers are ONLY available if you own everything OR buy the deluxe Package...
not just in A4...

This has been covered elsewhere (I believe elsewhere on this forum, too).  29 speakers were supposed to be unlocked with AmpliTube 4 regardless of what you owned or didn't own before.
 
This is being fixed (currently being tested) and the update that has all 29 speakers for AmpliTube 4 users (even brand new installs) will be posted in your IK User Area tomorrow as long as there are no blockers with the build.

Nice...I was basing it off the fact that we currently DON'T have the 29 unless we own everything,
and that Deluxe DOES include 29...I only have 25
Only logical assumption there was...

I purchased Amp 3 and then Amp4 within a couple of weeks. Looks like a CF(old Navy term) to me.

How so?  You have the gear from Deluxe for the same price as (or likely less than - either with JamPoints or promotional pricing on AmpliTube 3) AmpliTube Deluxe?  Doesn't sound like a cluster of any kind to me.

So, Peter....
 
Bottom line, if you own A3 (like I do) and got A4 (not Deluxe), what does Deluxe have that I don't (or won't once the 29 cab bug is fixed)?

Nothing.

That's what I thought.  And so it goes.
 
But thanks so much for fixing the speaker thingy:-)

Bingo.....as I had guessed from post #4.  

Sorry for the dumb question, but do you guys get the "Do you want to allow changes from an unknown publisher" every time you open the stand alone?
