People were angry about the significant delay. Not only were numerous comments negative toward IK, many were downright spiteful. Things were not so rosy when it came to SampleTank 3. Chatter like “Ooh, I’m going get the White … which one are you going to pick?” was common. The excitement was evident in the Cakewalk forum that I frequent. The launch was accompanied by a group buy that got you both for the price of one if a certain subscription level was reached (and it was reached). Not all that long ago, IKM brought two new compressors to the market: the White 2A Leveling Amplifier and the Black 76 Limiting Amplifier. The public seems to have a love/hate attitude toward IK Multimedia. IK Multimedia originally announced its availability for the latter part of 2013, but that date continually slipped, occasioning a lot of very negative commentary in the music forums. We will look at SampleTank 3 from IK Multimedia in this review. Was it worth the wait? We take a close look at the instrument in this review.

The much-delayed SampleTank 3 has finally arrived.
