Syntronik 2 crosscrade/update

Postby danwhite1111@gmail.com » Fri Jan 21, 2022 8:14 am

Hi there,
As a Syntronik 1 user is there a crossgrade/updrage path to Syntronik 2 or if I want to upgare to the latest version am I expected to to purchase Syntronik 2 at full price, rendering my original purchase of Syntronik 1 irrelevant?
Any info appreciated
Thanks
Dan

LE 99.99
199.99 (149.99 crossgrade / upgrade)
MAX 299.99 (199.99 crossgrade / upgrade)

As you have Syn1, you qualify for the crossgrade / upgrade price of 149.99 to Syn2 (or 199.99 to Syn2 MAX).

Disclaimer: this is my interpretation, not confirmed by IK Multimedia.
  • Syn2 is the same 17 synths as in Syn1 PLUS the 5 additional synths and ~560 presets in Syn1 Deluxe,
  • with all your current synths (and the 5 others) and presets available in Syn2 (using the embedded Syn (1) engine),
  • over 4,200 presets, compared with about 2,150 in Syn1 and about 2,700 in Syn1 Deluxe,
  • that includes almost 1,500 new presets for those 22 synths, in Syn2 format
  • these 1,500 presets can be edited in the Edit page and use Wave Sets.
For the 11 new synths you would need Syn2 MAX.

Wow, 149-200 to upgrade a plugin to the latest version!

That offer is available to anyone as well, so no discount for owning version 1 of the product.

The fact that you can't even use all of your "Jam points" against the purchase stinks as well.

Even the "free" eq plugin Ik are offering atm has to be opened in either a paid for product or one that is trying to sell to the customer.

[Oops - I missed some facts in my earlier post - now added)

The price for the Upgrade from Syn1brings you 5 more synths (those that were added in Syn1 Deluxe) new functionality and a new GUI and, as I said, over 1,100 new presets (Syn 1 had about 2,100 presets and Syn 1 Deluxe about 2,700.)

You are correct, there is no specific discount for licensees of Syn1.

Anyone with a Qualifying Product ("QP") can get Syn 2 at the cross-grade/upgrade price. Conversely, anyone with Syn1 (or another QP) is eligible for several other products at the cross-grade/upgrade price.

JamPoints can be used for up to 30% of the product price, even for products on sale. (After customer requests, IK Multimedia changed away from the earlier scheme: up to 50% but 0% on sale prices.

This week, the T-RackS EQ 81 (list price 99.99) was issued free to all IK Multimedia Account holders. It can be used as a plug-in in a DAW or loaded into the free T-RackS 5 Custom shop edition. But, claim it quick :)
FREE for all T-RackS users (including CS) through January 31
