So where is it? It is July.

They didn't specify "WHEN" in July...they still have 29 days! 

Do you know about disk streaming in Sampletank 3?
Can it stream samples from disk or is it only RAM ??

Just read on KVR that it streams the same as ST2.5

My Sweetwater invoice states release is set for 7-15.
We could start a pool.
Just sayin'....

Oooooooooooooooo....

I LOVE THIS PART...

Over 10 years in the making, SampleTank 3 sets a new standard for software sound workstations. It builds upon the popularity and legacy of the SampleTank line, with over 33 GB of sounds, over 4,000 instruments, over 2,000 MIDI files and 2,500 loops — all of which sound great and are easy to manipulate right out of the box.

Good news, thanks!

You're welcome.  Glad to have a specific date to share now.

I am not in the market for new "bread and butter" content but I don't think the question was ever answered about how much of the 33GB is actually new, if you read carefully  IK do not imply that it is 33GB of new content, but some people have read it that way. We know that a lot of the orchestral instruments are re-packaged and re-scripted Miroslav samples. I wonder how much ST2.5 stuff is also repackage.

 
From Peter in the "official" IK info thread:

The SampleTank 3 library includes the SampleTank 2.5 XL library and some of the Miroslav Philharmonik library (reprogrammed to take advantage of the ST3 features, keyswitching, etc). So around 25GB of new sounds. You will need to import any other previous Powered By SampleTank libraries into SampleTank 3 in order to use them in it.

Damn,
I was goin' with the 15th, figured that Sweet had the "weight" to know!
Guess the pool's off then, huh?
