Upgrading from Amplitube 4 MAX to Amplitube 5 MAX

Postby Gothic_JJ » Thu Dec 17, 2020 11:13 pm

Hello folks, just a silly question: I just upgraded from Amplitube 4 MAX to Amplitube 5 MAX and everything is working fine so far but... I would need to uninstall Amplitube 4 from the PC to save space in the HD. Do you think it could cause errors (missing amps or missing legacy collections) when running Amplitube 5 MAX or not ?

Thank you !

Hello and welcome to the forum.

AT4 and AT5 are separate programs and plug-ins. Uninstalling AT4 will not affect AT5.

But ... your projects that use AT4 will not open correctly. AT5 does not replace AT4 on disk or in your DAW projects.

You might need to:
-- load each project,
-- save the AT4 settings as presets, disable AT4 in the project,
-- load AT5, load the presets
-- and do some A/B comparisons until you can get the sound you want.
-- then remove AT4 from the project and save it, with a slightly different name.
Repeat for each project.

Great ! Will follow your instructions to load the former AT4 settings/presets as new presets in AT5 and then I will rename the AT4 projects. Afterwards I will disinstall AT4.

Thanks a bunch !

Common sense says that it should work, but I have not done it. Go carefully, and keep back-ups.
