Your New Go-to Sample-based Workstation

Looking for a new go-to sample-based workstation? Then you're in luck. Armed with a new, cutting-edge sound engine, IK Multimedia's SampleTank 4 puts loads of powerful music-creation tools right into your hands. Benefit from a robust 64GB sound library, along with 6,000 instrument presets. Turbocharge your workflow with a redesigned interface. Enjoy a whole slew of groove production tools, including an Arpeggiator, Strummer, Pattern Player, and Loop Manager. Beyond that, a new Live mode makes performing easier than ever. You also get 60 effects, along with a powerful modulation matrix, and integration with iRig Keys I/O MIDI controllers. SampleTank 4 gives you the sounds you need to get the job done.

This is a special offer for users of IK Multimedia SampleTank 3 to upgrade to SampleTank 4 at a reduced cost. Call your Sales Engineer for more details.

Dig deep with SampleTank 4's redesigned interface

SampleTank 4's redesigned interface allows you to dig deeper than ever before. Switch between sampling engines, including the award-winning STRETCH algorithm, with ease. Adjust every parameter of SampleTank's 16 different filters. Edit envelopes, oscillators, portamento, polyphony, and more. With SampleTank 4, you can tweak each and every element of a sound. You can even edit different zones of the sound, focusing on just lows or highs, to create instruments that morph radically across their range.

Arpeggiator, Strummer, Pattern Player, and Loop Manager

Groove production in IK's SampleTank 4 is easier than ever, thanks to four powerful new tools. Use the Arpeggiator to draw patterns up to 16 notes, then adjust velocity, length, and swing. Fire up the Strummer section to create realistic guitar chords, with complete control over key, chord positions, strumming direction, and more. With the Pattern Player, you can browse MIDI patterns and map them to different keys that you then trigger on the fly. And similarly, the Loop Manager lets you assign or trigger hundreds of loops, with access to a complete range of controls.

Live mode injects excitement into any performance

Want to use SampleTank 4 for live performance? No problem. Its Live mode makes building an entire set list easy, while supplying you with the controls you need on stage. Organize a set list quickly and easily by saving Multis by song. Assign a unique program change message to each sound to move between sounds from your MIDI controller or keyboard. Beyond that, drag-and-drop functionality allows you to change your set list on a whim. You can assign each Multi its own tempo, allowing you to use the Arpeggiator, Strummer, Pattern Player, and Loop Manager without adjusting any settings. And each Multi has its own master volume control, so you can turn it up for your solo or lay back in the groove when it’s time — all without adjusting a bunch of settings.

Loaded with 60 great-sounding effects

SampleTank 4 adds 13 new effects for a total of 60 — and since they're derived from AmpliTube and T-RackS, they sound amazing. From realistic tube saturation to analog pedal effects to pro-sounding studio processors, you've got everything you need to craft top-drawer sounds. On top of that, a new modulation matrix gives you high-level control over the organic complexity of your sounds. With it, you can link modulation sources like envelopes, LFOs, oscillators, and even individual instrument elements.

Seamless Integration with iRig Keys I/O MIDI Controllers

Thanks to seamless integration with IK’s iRig Keys I/O MIDI controllers, taking command of your sample-based workstation has never been easier. You can browse and load sounds from the Data knob, control any of the eight macros instantly from the touch-sensitive encoders, control the transport, and even trigger loops or browse drum samples with the integrated pad controllers.

iRig Keys I/O 49 sold separately.
