I think we should take up a collection and get IK_Peter a sweet present for Valentine's Day:
 
 

Is Whitman's sampler 64 bit, it looks more modern than ST2.

Grem~ sorry bro they have lied. When you say something is going to happen and then it doesn't, you have lied.
 

See, this is where I disagree with this point.
 
I believe that Obi and Peter gave info that they believed was correct.
 
I also believe that IK really thought it was going to happen. We really don't know why it didn't happen, time after time after time and on and on.
 
But like I said, I still don't think they out right came on this or any other forum  and purposely told their customers fallacious info. That's ludicrous!
 
I have told my co-workers info that the office told me to distribute, only to find out a few days later that the office did a complete reversal. Did I lie to my co-workers? No I didn't.

 I will say that I listen to somebody like cclary before I listen to some "long time" member with a dozen posts.

That was uncalled for. It's this kind of "reaction" that has lead to this "IK Feeding Frenzy!"
 
Again I say, just let it go. You are not doing yourself any good. And you are certainly not hurting IK.

Sorry Grem....They knew.
Do you notice that they are conspicuously absent from this general discussion?
You are rationalizing their behavior.
This isn't a few months of BS, it is a few YEARS....you are entitled to your opinion of IK and their reps as am I.
They are lying for their bosses...if you want to look at it your way. But a lie is still a lie.
 
One thing I can't lie about is that BAPU not only has every plugin ever made. He even has the most coveted of all plugins....It's made by Gollum Software and only one person can possess it....the miPrecious! It rings... 

Hi Grem,
 The IK representatives amplified the situation when they elected to argue with their customers rather than listen. They offered arguments and introduced talking points which have resonated and grown out of proportion. When I mentioned that it seemed unusual to encounter a professional representative that argued with customers rather than listen, our IK representative argued about the merits of arguing. It just spiraled up and up until IK_Peter showed up as back up, threw it down, and made a fool of himself and the company he represents.
 Regardless of what goes on behind the scenes, it is customary for a professional sales rep to maintain the appearance that he empathizes with the customer. The inability to demonstrate this, and the decision to debate with customers, has created a situation where witnessing IK_Representation ruin its reputation has provided more entertainment value than IK's actual products. I didn't even install my IK_stuff on my latest DAW.
 
 I have interpreted the relaxation of the constant IK_Spamming and its trademark IK_Arguments as an acknowledgement that IK may be reassessing its public relations strategy. I think it's a step in the right direction.
 
 best regards,
mike

At the last posting of "when" it was slated for MARCH, which may indicate what the Guitar Center email is referring to...however, that's not to say that they won't put it out a few weeks earlier (but actually 4 years later) then they said, and then tout it as bein RELEASED EARLY!!!  And everyone will say YAY!!! DERH!!!

I beg to differ...if ALL of us...who were bilked out of thousands and have waited YEARS to get an
an update DON'T BUY...it will put a SERIOUS dent in their market. Unfortunately, it is the only way
that we can "be heard iLOUD AND iCLEAR" (see what I did there?).

I assume you purchased during the IK SAMPLETANK GROUP GIVEAWAY...from your supportive posts,
and are eagerly anticipating ST 3, but that's an assumption, and you know what they say about that.

As far as letting it go...as I said BEFORE....NEVER EVER! (unless the conditions are met)

Just browsed thru a forum where IK responded that Guitar Center made a mistake in the advertisement and apologized that it was not available yet! A lot of mad guys in there!
