SampleTank 3 THE RETURNįast forward to 2014 and the release of SampleTank 3. IK Multimedia continued doing its part to keep pace with the fast moving advances in computer music technology. Amplitude focused more on creating virtual effects aimed primarily at guitarists. T-Racks led the way as a pioneering mastering tool.

While IK Multimedia continued to grow as a leader in virtual instruments they also branched out providing ground breaking audio effects and hardware emulations for mixing and mastering. As things progressed SampleTank introduced the ability to play and manipulate audio drum loops and grooves further enhancing the existing performance capabilities.

Included in the library were pianos,acoustic and electric guitars, drum kits, world instruments and special effects. SampleTank allowed you to have a virtual workstation of sorts that provided a large instrument library covering numerous musical styles. What the Korg M1 did to change the hardware landscape, IK Multimedia accomplished in the virtual instrument arena with the original SampleTank. Until that time the concept of having a workstation was relegated to hardware instruments. The promise of high quality sounds with the ability to use them in new and innovative ways inside your computer were the dreams of most musicians of the day.
