IK's 25th Anniversary Group Buy! Up to 25 for the price of 1

Do I get the serial number for the ARC System 3 software immediately If I buy the ARC System 3 with MEMS microphone for 149,99 € or do I have to wait until the microphone arrives ?

You have to wait until you get the product along with a slip of paper that has the serial number which you then enter.

Don't worry about it taking some time. The date of purchase, not of registration, determines whether or not you will be entered into the Group Buy for hardware products, according to both Peter and IKM Support.

Thinking of jumping in for a 3rd time. Are there any $49 promo codes available ? I'd like to grab a few more Syntronik, Electromagnetik, Cinekinetik, ect synths. And then fill out the rest with Amplitube gear.

I came here to ask the same question about Arc System 3. I just purchased it this morning from IK’s online store, and was wondering if would be out of luck because of shipping times.

Thanks DarkStar. I was focused more on making sure that Arc 3 qualified for the group buy that I didn’t even think about the shipping aspect. It wasn’t until shortly after I checked out that it dawned on me, and then panic set in…lol.

I’m in Canada, so I imagine that it will be a few weeks before I receive my package. It’s reassuring to know that if need be, support will be able to assist.

Ah yes, I think your best bet in Canada is typically Long & McQuade but I'm not sure they would have ARC 3 in stock currently, the demand has been high. So ordering directly from IK US was likely your best option and I'm glad you are more comfortable knowing support will be able to take care of you

Thanks Peter, but will Long & Mcquade accept my Jam Points?

Joking aside, I just took a quick look on the L&M website, and after the dollar conversion I'm still saving over $100 purchasing from the IK store.

Thanks Peter, but will Long & Mcquade accept my Jam Points?

Doubtful. Not convertible into CTM either.

I had to look that up: Canadian Tire Money. That's pretty funny! It's on Wikipedia for those who need to know....

[huli50]

Well...now all of a sudden I want some CTM.

I'd pay $1 for a mint-condition 4¢ note from 1962. That's a value of 1/25 for the price of 1!

Of course, this being Canadian Tire Money, I should adjust for… inflation. (Sorry; I'll get me hat.)
