That is not our date, we do have AmpliTube 4 targeted for an October 29, 2015 release date now though.

He said that in the KVR forum also.  But my point was he came here and said NO DATE...then
went to KVR and gave a date...which is IK's MO...they will do and say "whatever", such as "SampleTank 3
is in the making", but then it still takes 6 years after that to get to release, which was itself "Late" to the "Projected" date...

and obviously gave a date on the IK forum also..but never came back here
to give one...even though we had been inquiring...

Yeah, Clint, I have seen a few around that price. The Helix might be way more amazing, but I am aiming for upgrading my 1999 Kurzweil K2500, and adding some other items, before I'd consider that. I would much rather buy a Vox AC10 and play with what I have.....
I am glad I preordered AT4, but am really looking forward to setting up live tracking in our breezeway once we "winterize" it.....at least more than it is now. I haven't miked an amp in 7 years, so I am eager to do that again and compare it to AT4 in November (of this year, hopefully!  LOL)

My HD500X works great with my DT25 amp. I can't see how the Helix will add to my setup since it doesn't control the DT as well as the HD500.

I just noticed that in JRR Shop that Ampltube 4 is 
$149.99 and it says "Email Delivery within 24 hrs." 
which indicates it's available...

In cart price is $126...

Also, the IK site, and the CS,  no longer say "Preorder"...they say Special Introductory Price...$99.99

But it's not a available to download yet...

EDIT:  the Info page does say Pre-order

hmmm. It would be nice to have it today. I'm taking a vacation day to play guitar!

I agree Clint...it would certainly make for a good day!

It will be a good day. I'm throwing down the coffee now. As soon as the wife leaves for work...things will get cranked up!

So I haven't really looked into this, apologies if it's obvious, but a cursory reading of some of the blurb about how this new Amplitube 4 is the best sounding ever and how amp and cabinet modeling has been improved etc....does this "new and improved" modeling apply to all of their existing amps and cabs, i.e. are all my Fender and Orange purchases going to sound better, or the same?
