Unless the manual didn't overwrite itself for the new one vs. Yet nowhere did I see them mention that the upgrade from 3.2 to 3.5 isn't free! What in the world is going on here? a 'purchase' link.Īt this point, I get taken to a purchase page for a sounds download reactivation credit for $9.99. So if I click on the new SampleTank CustomShop, it tells me my SampleTank license has expired, but gives me an upgrade option from the free version, with a 'reactivate' link vs. Only a few sounds appear here and there, and they are listed as 'free' vs. No not out of the woods yet! I wonder if this stuff was programmed by the Camel Audio team it rings familiar in terms of the undocumented bootstrapping procedure and massive redundancies, as well as how long it takes to load or renew the database even for a minor addition (my last Alchemy update took over six hours!). It automatically adds an additional row each time you paste a serial number, and refuses to authorize as a result of the illegal blank additional serial number, won't let you delete that one, and if you start over, it happens the same way each time nor can you type in the serial number directly instead so as to avoid its internal software bug that adds an additional blank line each time you paste a serial number. Next, I went to Authorization Manager after an updated download, and tried to register a new sound library.

I've read the updated manual, and they keep talking about how intuitive and easy this vomity new interface is. I suspect more has to be done to fix its internal default (why do vendors insist on using your main drive for everything, when hardly any pros do things that way?). It is unable to find any of my purchased libraries or even my pro version of the product (just the free version), even though I downloaded and installed the full version and re-pointed it to my library disc for the content after launching the standalone version and noticing it slammed everything onto my system drive without asking. I am losing way too much time trying to fix SampleTank after the problematic 3.5 update today.
