Do you need old ver after Amp5 install [Resolved]

Postby tommartini604 » Wed Apr 28, 2021 11:55 am

I own Amplitube 4 Max (purchased a year ago) but now own the reg version Amplitube 5. Do you need the old Amplitube 4 installed anymore to get what you had before once you install Amplitube 5? If I uninstall Amp 4Max will I lose any older gear?

I was thinking that Amp 5 would now have all of what Amp 4 Max had.

Hi tommartini604

You do not need to leave AT4 installed to have access to gear in AT5, with 2 caveats:

1) If you have old projects in a DAW that you still need to open/access, if you uninstall AT4 the projects will not be able to open the plugin. AT5 does not automatically replace AT4.

2) There are a couple of the cabs (rotary I think) available in AT4 that are no longer available in AT5 as they were damaged in a flood and so their IR could not be recaptured and included.

Hope that helps.
