Group Buy Rules.

A group buy works on ALL products from the SampleTekk store. The DirectDownloads can only be bought when the discount level is 50%. That means when 81 or more items has been sold, or on orders placed before January 10:th, (Early Birds)
The Group Buy offer is valid between January 4 and February 4 2006.
To join the Group Buy you make a purchase in our on-line store with the 50% maximum discount. You have then entered the Group Buy. When 81 entries are reached the 50% discount applies for all buyers and you don't have to make an additional payment. If the 81 buyers are not reached at the end of the Group Buy you will have to make an additional payment. This payment will be the difference between the lowest price you paid and the actual price as set by the discount percentage reached at the end.
You can buy as many different products as you like, but only one each. For example, you can buy 1 White Grand, 1 Black Grand and 1 Vertikal but not 3 White Grand.
By joining a group buy you agree to wait until the end of the group buy before receiving the product(s) and make the final payment if needed.
You can find the discount percentage matching each level of buyers below.


0-25 Buyers 10% Discount
26-50 Buyers 20% Discount
51-75 Buyers 30% Discount
76-80 Buyers 40% Discount
81 + 50% Discount


Both the entry and the shipping fee are non-refundable purchases.
When the final discount is reached (or when the Group Buy ends) we will ship the products you purchased. (Purchases made during the Early Bird period, ships directly)
All items are full versions and packed in CD/DVD envelopes

We had a sneak start yesterday with a newsletter to all old customers, but with this rate, I shouldn't think that there's no high odds on this going past the 81 mark and reach the highest discount level.....

Current Counter:
38 buyers, Days left: 31

Let's see if we can reach the next level later today.....

I Depends a bit on what kind of music you play.

[mariobolo]

sigh.. i'm i the only one here who would love the downloadable version of the ambient and medium black grand perspectives...?
i'm confident they would cost me less then a nice expensive reverb...
maybe once the group buy is over?
thanks

Just get the full Black Grand, all three perspectives for $100, can't really go wrong there!

[mariobolo]

Thanks Worra for your always quick replies;

thanks,
mario

Sure it is! "Steiny D or Steiny D Close Upgrade path", for users that own Steiny D OR Steiny D Close, then it's only 50% of $140 = $70!
Is that a no brainer, or what...???

Question!!

Do you have a plan for direct download - TBO, and Black Grand other perspective. Vertikal Jazz perspective??

I don't want to get DVDs 'cause I should pay more money(tax, shipping cost).



Right now, I have TSO, and Black Grand close, White Grand and White Sister, and Vertikal Pop. And I want to get more!!


one more question, can you give the patch of WG Jr and Steiny D Close to user of White Grand and Black Grand close? TBO users get TSO patch.

So I think White Grand users sholud get WG Jr patch, and Black Grand users should get Steiny D Close patch.



I really love your pianos.!!!!

Ok ,
does it mean that i can use that upgrade path even if i own the FULL black
grand perspective (bought using direct download) and NOT the Steiny D or Steiny D close?

Worra pianos are all quite different compared to NI bundle, but IMO :
- White Grand if you want a piano that really *rock*. Far from anything else. No other piano compare to this one.
- TBO if you want to complement NI AP by a Yam C7... and one of the most expressive piano around.
- Then, well, if you are one of those "steinway D collector" : black grand is also a very acclaimed one. Maybe less "true to the real thing" compared to NI Steinway, but definitively a great character.

Happy new year to all :|: , and successful group buy to worra.

(I've placed my order, I own every sampletekk pianos now, I must be a obsessional-compulsive-collector-maniac :D )

Ooops.... forgot that! Ok, I've updated the upgrade path so that there now are a "Steiny D and Steiny D Close, or Black Grand Close D/D Upgrade path".
That's $100 and with the 50% discount, $50....
The no brainer has no become a bit more no brainer...:D

Hi and Thanks!

WG Jr has the actual samples edited, so there's no way of actually using the existing White Grand samples directly. But I will make a "WG Jr" patch for WG users. That will be available for free from our site shortly.
The Steiny D Close is simpler and will be available real soon.

Problem with TBO as a DirectDownload is the size, over 10Gb.... Even if we have a dedicated server, we have to think about disk and bandwidth.
I'll have to think about the Black Grand Ambient and Medium...

Thanks for your kind words!
About TBO being "and one of the most expressive piano around", all I can say is: "Line them up....:D"
No, seriously, depending what you mean with expressive, and that can be a subjective thing, TBO has 93 different samples/recorded note devided into 31 velocity layers. This gives you a dynamic responce that no other sampled piano, (even our own...), come close!

Worra,

I'm having difficulty deciding between the white grand and the black grand close. Was the black grand considered an upgrade to white grand because it came later? Are there examples that are the same but using each piano? I couldnt see one there.

thanks

Hi Worra:

I have TBO GS3 version. I used a translator to convert this to Kontakt to use with K2. Most files translated and I can play in K2. But Here is the question I have.

Is there a TBO version specifically programmed for K2, and is that going to sound significantly better than the translated version. If your answer is yes, and I am assuming it will be, then is this upgrade given to registered TBO owners for free, or is there a crossgrade path
And if there is a crossgrade path how much for the crossgrade, and does the 50% discount apply to that. (I got an e-mail that said everything is 50%, so I think this would be included as well)

Thanks
