Back in the 90s when you saw a magix commercial on RTL it was like seeing god himself.
"Did you see this guy? He made a hit song with 4 track loops" God, i just saw the future.
I have seen things in the 90s you people wouldnt believe.

I went ahead and bought it. The deal was too good to pass up.

I've been using Samplitude since SEK'd Samplitude 2496.

I never bought it because I'm really a very casual user and it's soooooo expensive. With this deal, I figured I had to buy it (even though I have the exact same version installed on my laptop, compliments of the sister site).

I really do try to buy the software if I use it more than once. As it turns out, every time I buy software, I am disappointed and this is no exception.

After I paid for the software, I was sent links to download my new software but they are only online download/installs (I believe called bootstraps).

So even after I buy the software, I don't have an actual copy of the software installer so every time I want to reinstall it, I have to download it again.

I'm still glad I bought it (it's my favorite DAW) but I guess I'll continue to use Tracer's version.

 

The setup you get with Tracer release is the full setup (but not the latest version), untouched, so use this one to install first. Then on your personnel space at Magix you can get the updates who are not online installers. Problem solved. Or write to Magix to get an offline installer of the first release (which will be the same as the tracer sam setup, but maybe you can get a different langage, if you need), which is a perfectly legitimate request, you have the right to be offline. I have the full setup, offline, in french, since I asked for it.

 

Thank you Talmi, I really appreciate your help!

 

No problem, happy to help.

 

@Jeff Maneville all installation files are located here:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Independence Library

only if you use the installer which you will get from Magix

updates are located here:
https://www.magix.com/ap/mandants/servicecenter/index.php?m=samplitude&lang=uk

 

I've been on the outside for many years as an observer- doing midi with cakewalk and syncing audio with Cool Edit Pro- in the dark ages. Thank you for notifying me of the deal, I'm in, I bought it.
It's good to feel legit
I have used Samplitude & Sequoia for? Ever. My daw of choice and so unknown. I have to admit that Reaper has turned me though, with skins that resemble ProTools and all the shortcuts aligned to Samplitude- it is a very deep but friendly program.
Truely, what a deal!!!
I'm forced to use " the industry standard " which I own, in my studies and work. There are parts I like and parts I disdained BUT! Samplitude with Birdline skins that you can colour code the mixer and colour metric wave display?
I am in heaven, thanks again for letting me know

 

How do you guys handle VST/i' in two locations?

I can't believe they haven't "fixed" it

BTW, the audio engine in this is just a diamond.

 

It's quite simple, you indicate the location where the plugs are and you're scanning, then you indicate the new location where the plugs are and you are also scanning too, simple

 

Okay, i'll have to see if it collected everything. Most like Maschine have multiple dir one can list.

 

Yeah, this whole install is shanaginz They need something like NI's Native Access

 

Thanks Recoil, I found it.

 

Can't get Kontakt recognised on a vsti scan .....anyone help please ?

But i am in LOVE with the Object Editor !!!!!

 

Is kontakt dll located inside a folder itself inside the folder where you scan for vsties ? If so then maybe the problem reside in the tricky fact that Samplitude by default only scans for 2 recuring folder inside the folder you tell it where to scan . In short I have a lot of folders with all vst dev names then inside those I have type of vsts, etc, and if I don't edit the config file of sam to tell it to scan more folders it will miss some.
I had explained how to change the vst config file of sam (located by default in program data/Magix/Samplitude Pro Suite X3), in another thread. Here : https://audiosex.pro/threads/samplitude-vstplugins-ini.25388/
You can edit two lines which will for one scan more folders in your vst folder and the other allow to display more folder in your vst explorer inside sam, this way you keep your categories inside sam as inside your explorer in windows.

Love the object editor too, one of my favorite side of Sam.
Hope that helps.

Thanks to Talmi and others with the right spirit

Edit: DL Birdline skins worked with Talmi's help. See below. So this post is obsolete. I also guess the serial for Samplitude will work when I get the full offline installer.

Bought it yesterday. Tried to DL Birdline skin -> serial number not valid. Tried to check MAGIX download center -> serial number not valid. Wrote to MAGIX support and also about how I get the Independence Library and so on.. heard nothing and weekend has arrived.. Support on sister site is way better and serial numbers are working.

Strange, everything works perfectly for me, I bought this DAW on Wednesday from the store in the US, I do not know why you have such problems

 

What do you mean wrong serial number ? When you register it (concerning samplitude) ? If I remember correctly you have to register it first.
For birdline skin it tells wrong license number at account creation ?
