Those of you who are IK Multimedia product owners will already have had an email (in my case two :) ) detailing the freebies for Amplitube, Sample Tank and T-Rack product users - well worth having - and advising of selected discounts throughout the site.
So pop on over to http://www.ikmultimedia.com and take a look.
Howard, thanks for the heads up. I have looked at Sample tank and T-Rack's but never really tried them. Might do it now though.
I do however find the custom shop somewhat confusing, which items are free? they all seem to have a price next to them. Also although they seem to have given us twenty free credits the prices also look like they've gone up. :doh:
Have you any recommendations?
The free versions of Sample Tank and T-Rack are very limited but still useful. I already had a small stock of Custom Shop credits and I am trying to decide between the Orange 200 bass amp and theFender pro bass head. Going to give them a try and I'll let you know which I go for.
I've had a muck about today with the two bass amp possibles in Amplitube 4 and I'm thinking I might go for the Fender for the variety of sounds. But then again I might not go for either - the sound from my basses direct with just a decent VST compressor ( the IK Multimedia T-Rack Classic for example) is as good if not better than from the modelled amps. Something to ponder on. Adding more 'growl' is merely a case of adding a tube saturation VST.

I looked at the T-Rack Classic collection myself. Still can't decide whether to spend them on something now, or wait and see what else comes up later.
Also I said I wasn't sure what items were free in the anniversary giveaway, or how to get them. I think I now understand after reading this page properly. lol.. :-[ http://www.ikmultimedia.com/20/cs.php
How it works
This giveaway is valid through March 31. To get your gear all you have to do is:
•Log in to your User Area or if you are a new user create an IK account
•Launch either AmpliTube Custom Shop, SampleTank Custom Shop or T-RackS Custom Shop
•Log in to Custom Shop
•Then click on either "GEAR" or "SOUNDS" and then click "Restore my gear" or "Restore my sounds"
well done Mick - clear instructions.
I'm now contemplating maybe something from the T-Rack section - the freebie compressor is, first impressions, really good.
Decisions decisions :)
Later - just looked at the prices for the T-Rack stuff. I don't like it any more :o
