how many versions of ST4 do I need to install? [Resolved]

Postby Phattlippz » Tue Dec 22, 2020 8:55 pm

I currently show FOUR different versions of SampleTank 4 in my Product Manager/Sounds window, including SampleTank 4 MAX. What's unclear is: do each of those versions have different instrument sets that would require all of them to be installed in order to have access to all patches? The 4 versions are 4, 4 CS (no option to install unfortunately), 4 MAX and 4 SE.

Any help would be appreciated.

All editions of SampleTank 4 are the same software. The Serial number determines what instruments can be loaded.

Only install ST4 MAX and when you Authorise the ST4 software, make sure that you use the ST4 MAX Serial Number. I am not sure exactly how it would work, but you might want to turn off "Automatically authorize after installation" in IKPM's Settings first.
