Taking suggestions from users over the years, IK Multimedia answers the call with a very detailed view. Right away you will notice the new user interface. Take a look at a quick SampleTank 4 intro video: Not only do you have a majority of past SampleTank sound content but gigabytes of freshly sampled instrument content included (which varies depending on the version you select). With over 250 Gb of sound content, SampleTank 4 MAX brings us the largest selection of instruments available in the history of SampleTank.
Make sure you set aside plenty of time to download and install the content, especially for the larger sound libraries as they are quite substantial. In order to install SampleTank 4, you need to download the installation program and sound files from your IK Multimedia User Area.
This review will focus on SampleTank 4 MAX. There are three versions of SampleTank 4 available: SampleTank 4 SE (Over 30GB of samples and 2000 sounds), Sampletank 4 (over 100 GB of samples and 6,000 sounds)and SampleTank 4 MAX (over 250 GB of Samples and 8,000 sounds). SampleTank 4 is available in AAX, VST 2, VST 3, and Audio Units plugin formats to ensure compatibility with your audio workstation of choice. It is hard to believe how far we have come since then as IK Multimedia continued to refine subsequent updates with SampleTank 3 and now what I consider the ultimate update with the introduction of SampleTank 4! THE LARGEST TANK YET! It was also increased overall performance as you were only using one instance of the plugin. To have multiple instruments available to you while only using one plugin was a massive boost to workflow and productivity. You can see in the video above SampleTank version 2 in all of its glory. This was when IK Multimedia introduced the first of its kind Multi-timbrel virtual workstation plugin. We were at the very beginnings of virtual instrument technology as we were discovering the creative possibilities of creating musical arrangements using only our computers.
