i i sir.

lets see what nice discount upgrade path they offer :)
 
and then I'll wait a few months for it to be highly discounted... like other IK things have been in the past, not ages after release ;-)
 
 

I seriously hope IK delivers an incredible product.  They NEED to...
after all the iCrap I've given them...it would just be beginning if ST3 were 
a dud.....IJS....

Fog, it better be like their iApps...$9.99 or less....because that's what it's going to take to sell it.

With all the far better supported products out there....they better GIVE IT AWAY in hopes of 
getting some of those customers back..

We'll see how strong willed everyone is after it comes out...because I know (myself included) how weak
those of us with PCD are...

IK Obi
No one "cares", yet everyone keeps talking about it....

It's called sarcasm and cynicism...
Everyone slows down and looks when they see a wreck in the road...

Not me - I don't.

I'm getting an iHeadache.

I will just wait till st3 is offered at some ridiculous 3 for 1 90 percent off offer down the road
 
...assuming it doesn't fly out the door when its released ...
 
 
re round robin   Kontakt been doing that with its powerful Skripting software for a while even 3rd parties incorporate round robin
 
 
 

any "press" is "good press" as long as they speel (sic) your name right!
 
look at it this way Obi, at least they (we) ain't kicking your a$$ on the iKey
 
:-]

 
 
 
 
 You have to first catch up before you can pull ahead. Catching up is first.
 
 Not many players out there  in this particular game. FWIW Sampletank seems to come prepackaged with a lot more material than the factory version of Kontakt minus third party samples. Kontakt won't run on an iPad but I suspect ST3 will. The basic instruments are all there in both. The sound quality seems negligible depending on the sounds we are comparing. Hopefully the sounds will also have improved, not that they were bad before. The big advantage is larger memory capability in 64bit. More sounds larger projects before a hiccup might just put it close to Kontakt, really close.

But then I have to learn a new product. And probably would have to pay for the privilege since all I REALLY cared about was 64-bit. Seriously, I couldn't care less about Round Robin if the sound is what I am looking for. It only irks me that I'll have to pay (a VERY strong possibility) to get 64-bit and Obi will tell me that I'm getting so much more for my $.

Star...not to be pedantic...but...

Kontakt
Independence
Alchemy
Aria
Mach 5
Dimension Pro

Shoud I go on?  Seriously...not many players in the game? And all of the above have had updates and upgrades
far more often the ST could possibly dream of...and have been 64 bit for a bit...

ST for iOS has been out for a while...and it will surely get an update as soon as ST 3 is released..
They update the iCrap every other week or so....while the PC stuff gets blown off regularly in it's favor.

And Kontakt has FAR FAR FAR MORE available sounds, both Native and 3rd Party...probably then
ANY sampler out there...add in the Infinity Player and the number AGAIN goes up...


I wholeheartedly beg to differ...
