I pre-ordered this one but wish I could cancel that and just upgrade to the new TS3.5 Max so I could get the FAME reverb AND the new Tascam Tape Collection together for about the same price. D'Oh!

I own a lot of different reverbs but the Sunset Sound is better than anything else I've used, IMO-- especially on vocals. So I expect that the FAME reverb will be amazing too.

You can contact IK Support and they should be able to assist you.

Thanks Peter. I can only imagine all the deluge of requests, etc the support team has to deal with regarding the 25X1 promo and I felt a little bad and didn't want to add to it. I hope you guys are getting some bonuses and vacation time.

But I did send 'em a message and if they can help me out on it, awesome.

The Total Studio Max 3.5 upgrade is a great deal.

Peter-any ballpark on when this software will be made available to the pre-order buyers?

No panic here just curious roughly how long it will be, until the actual release.

We expect to release FAME this month. Barring any issues with full approval/signoff by the FAME folks or unexpected "blocker" bugs, as per usual, but it is looking good.

Checking my email and here a couple of times per day! Can't wait for this. And thanks for the added discount! What a surprise that was!

[supanorton]

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate! Woke up to find FAME Studio Reverb ready to go. Can't wait to put it on a new track I'm working on! Thanks, IK!

Thanks for the info I'm still trying to make my mind up on which tape plugin.

I'll tell you what. I have sunset sound studios and it's AMAZING!
But I ended up getting this because....well...IT'S AMAZING!

Some of the things I like:

-The rooms. For guitar isolation, they are really nice. Using as a send(hate it as an insert personally) , they provide a bit richer sound. The "eq" is important (cut the low some, boost the highs just a bit) and you get something that makes the guitar sound bigger and really more present. Drums are great too. Sometimes it's better than the "room" in virtual drums (yes, I'm totally inside the box).

The chamber and the plates. Is it possible to have the "lo fi" reverb that is still thick and mesmerizing? If so, this is it. Again, a low cut and a soft hi boost is you friend (especially on the plate) but you can't deny the results. Very pleasing and don't discount the pre-delay a bit) I like to shorten the "time" and just enjoy the results.

Ok, babbling on, but this is even MORE flexible than the Sunset Sound Studio verb in many ways. That's saying something

Also, currently on top of the "introductory price" there is another nice discount available. So, if you want it, this is the best time to get it. Sorry mods, had to mention that

I did almost the FULL demo period (which is much better that other custom shop options, thanks IK!) and it wasn't much of a option to buy. At first it's like "hey, between SSS and my Rehab labs LX 480, why do I need this?" and then it became obvious.

A truly unique product, and a fair price (currently) that can please many. You make your own mind but I'm happy about the journey that led me here
