SampleTank 4 Expansion Libraries

Also available are six new virtual Instrument Collections in the SampleTank 4 Expansion Library series. They offer a wide selection of instrument types ranging from drum loops to robotic sci-fi synths, designed to inspire diverse musical styles including funk, reggaeton, pop, indie rock, and more. They include:

• L.A. Confidential - grooves from L.A. session drummers
• Alternate Keys - fresh chromatic instrument
• Clavitube - funky, vibey, amped clavinets
• Hitmaker Series Reggaeton - track-ready, tropical-inspired reggaeton sounds and grooves
• Hitmaker Series Synthwave - vintage analog tones with a futuristic twist
• Hitmaker Series Trap - hard-hitting sounds and grooves

SampleTank Editor

Last but not least, a new power is brought to SampleTank as you can now bring in your own sounds with the new SampleTank Editor. This is a free sample import/programming tool that can be used to create your own new SampleTank 4 Instruments and Libraries.

SampleTank Editor allows you to:

• Import and auto-map samples into SampleTank format
• Edit and adjust Zones and Oscillators
• Import custom icons and add descriptions and tags
• Export creations as SampleTank 4 Instruments and Libraries

The SampleTank Editor is available to registered users of any paid version of SampleTank 4 and can be downloaded from the IK Multimedia website.

SampleTank 4 CS is free and available for Mac/PC via direct download. The new expansion libraries are available from the IK Multimedia online store and from IK authorized dealers worldwide.

Hi, I can't see the serial number for the CS Library, help me please!

Hi Ro Bamonde and welcome to the forums.

Hi, I can't see the serial number for the CS Library, help me please!

You don't need a separate serial number for the sound content. If you have authorised ST4CS with the serial number shown next to it in your User Area, you just need to click on the Sounds Download button, highlight the Sound Content and click download. Unpack, run the installer and you should be good to go.

Hope that helps.

[Peter_IK]

Correct, when you authorize your SampleTank 4 CS serial number and install the CS libraries they will run as authorized under that.

Hey guys,

Registration is not working for me.

I enter my Existing Sampletank CS serial, but I get the "not authorized" message from both Sampletank 4 and when loading the library content.

[DarkStar]

^^^
That is probably the Serial Number for SampleTank 3 Custom Shop. Does it start with STF30-?

Look in your User Area / My Products for "SampleTank 4 CS" and use that Serial Number. It starts with STX40-.

[jeremyd]

You're right about the STF-3.

But I don't see anything for "SampleTank 4 CS". Only "SampleTank Custom Shop".

Please make sure you go to http://www.ikmultimedia.com/userarea and you'll see a popup confirming SampleTank 4 CS and the Editor have been added to your account. That way you can click the link to SampleTank 4 CS which should be a direct route to the download and serial with less confusion. Thanks!

Weird: that worked just fine when I went off your link! Maybe my cookies were off...haha.

Thanks!

OK, new problem: I'm only seeing, like, 3 instruments. I confirmed and refreshed the library locations, but still I just get the free piano (possibly the old ST3 CS stuff?)

You must download and install each of the SampleTank 4 CS sound installers.

You must authorize SampleTank 4 CS using the serial number from your IK User Area, via Authorization Manager.

Sorry to hear that, I'd suggest opening a ticket with IK Support who can provide direct technical support if you haven't done so and I'm sure they can sort our your issue. They can be reached at http://www.ikmultimedia.com/contact-support/mi/

Thank you.
