I am jumping in on this thread because although DarkStar is extremely helpful I want to back up the "user voice" to try and leverage more IKM support for Miroslav Philharmonik and other legacy instruments. I cannot use MP1 or MP2 or SampleTank for many of the same reasons outlined.
You can see my forum thread about this here:
https://cgi.ikmultimedia.com/ikforum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=31665I can't relate the level and quality of support I am getting from IKM at the moment to any other music software provider, including very small single plugin or loop suppliers, or of course Native Instrument, Steinberg etc.
However, I continue to hope it's not deliberately malicious, and I don't believe the staff are not competent.
If anyone has a line in to IK, is there anything any of you can do to help? I really think this should be a simple fix for any of their tech staff or for anyone who has some admin rights on the products, and to offer an occasional support call when people get really stuck would be truly appreciated.

Anyway, just my 2c and kudos again to DarkStar at least for "papering over the cracks" in a very helpful way for all of us.
