Has anyone with install problems changed any of the
default 'sharing' settings on their Public Documents folder?
An installer might expect there to be no limitations on that folder,
while msoft does allow some limitation to be made.

Has anyone installed to disk space once heavily fragmented,
but not properly de-fragged by a serious 3rd party defrag utility?

is the Miroslav Philharmonik 2 multi folder under sampletank 3 on the usb MAX drive supposed to be empty? I do not see any multis for MP2CE I do not see Miroslav Philharmonik (1) that I set the instrument locations to. Sorry for so many questions but not getting any support help I guess they are very busy right now (not a put down or slam intended)

I believe they were compressed on Mac OS. The Windows installer will install the correct content from the sound library files.
WOW. I did not know that windows files could be opened by a Mac. I tossed all those files. So, what I did is toss half or more of the content out. Right ?

Hold on. No phone support. Can you imagine getting an email from me trying to tell what is going on ? Email is not even up to drum communitions over miles of jungle.

ik 9 would be out by then.

This is related and is an example directly relating to this situation. I’ve know from the start that we, myself and support were speaking two different languages. I could never master English much more I would believe Italian. The are doing both.

Lee Watkins, a friend of mine got a job in LA working for a little known but a completely overwhelming funded company.

The owner, a Japanese man could speak very little English. Certainly understanding it was out of the question. Lee applied for a soldering job.

In less than a year, the company grew because Lee too over the entire operation. He was reading the Japanese manuals in English and could barely understand them.

He rewrote the manuals at home on his time. The company hired people that could speak LA. He also learned a working knowledge of Japanese. He turned in fact to be the faux head of the company while maintaining humility and abhorring braggadocia.

That company was Hosa. He caught cancer and passed. I met the wealthy Japanese founder, owner, idea guy again at NAMM, post Lee, in later years.

He was at the by then, overwhelming, or acre Hosa booth still dressed in the same white dress shirt with sleeves rolled up a bit. He smiled and we both slightly bowed.

The point is, there will always be immense problems with people that don’t know LA'ese, know the product but interpretation is all over the map. No one is at fault, it’s culture. Just like I knew he missed Lee, owed all to him, he knew I missed a good friend that understood he was still standing where he was.

Many companies to not have direct support phone lines. Our support team has worked very well using the ticketing system and will communicate in a way that best assists a particular issue or customer if the case arises.

Let's return to the topic of SampleTank 4, please. Thanks!

Peter_IK wrote:Hi, you should be able to download SampleTank 4 from your IK User Area under "My Products" and then the Sounds Downloads for your version (in your case SE). They will be in the dropdown - download them all, then extract the zip or dmg files for the sound library installers and run the installer that is in each of them.

That will be a typical installation which will get you all that you should have in your version (download, not USB stick). If you doubt what you see is all you should have, note that the lists I've linked directly below which are also available from the SampleTank 4 Sounds page are complete and you can use them to compare:

ST 4 SE

ST 4 MAX

ST 4 Versions Comparison

All right, that explains everything and I didn’t have to go past the first url.

It’s my fault for assuming the 2000 carefully selected samples were picked by me. They weren’t so I have nothe to be unhappy about.

Tibetan Bowls. I haven’t even seen a sound listed like that before. After a bit of a chuckle I went on. No wonder the material is so thin.

With all humility and time put in, I don’t think the big bad guy would suit my needs.

Is it possible to import an exact copy of my sound content in SP3 iOS to a folder in GarageBand in MacBook Air from my iPad Pro 11.

Just my personal tastes not criticizing anyone but it would be perfection for me.

Thank you.

Peter, that was meant with dignity not implied in Amy other way.

If we need to forum this out. The a company made me but two complete full SampleTank 3's to get rid of the free version which they knew would never happen. Free would always be listed.

I filed so many support tickets and with a's spell correction it got to the point I could not spell check anymore. WHAT I TYPE is totally controlled by a's knowing what I want to say not what I want to say. Example at beginning of sentence.

There were no considerations as far as price. A totally blamed IK, IK didn’t understand what that meant. A said ik owes you, ik didn’t understand what owes you meant.

Wow, to say I’m off topic when I have politely danced the Lambada for weeks is sort of insulting although no questions are being answered.

Peter, I’m sorry if it seems I, off topic but out of the uncountable “tickets” no results. The same thing happened with a 50$ daw. Twice, same result.

Why doesn’t the program install itself, make its predesignated paths, boot and is ready to go. 10 years ago it did that, what has changed.

I know as spokesman you have a lot on your plate. This should have been listed in the preorder form. Will take a knowledgeable technician to follow installation instructions for the preorders product to properly function.

These costs are separate from preorder costs. Preorder is not a good thing. It is looked on like a start up, busher, haven’t worked a job in my life, looking for alcohol.

Sorry if this is rude. As said before, a few glitches, regular upgrades for security, etc is great.

To be this far away from download, shipping doesn’t look good and many of us are past the refund due to card.

Sorry Peter, this is wearing on everyone.

it depends on what you deleted. But, you still have the download files or the USB drive, don't you?

You can't upload pics directly, you need to host them elsewhere and then send links.

I normally use https://imgur.com but there are other sites available.

Hope that helps.
