I´ve been searching for an amp simulator to use in Nuendo / Cubase for a week or so, with no luck. My best bet was to find installers for Steinberg Warp or Amplitube 1.0 in VST format. Neither of both are available here, and i wasn´t able to find them anywhere on the web, and believe me, i have searched A LOT. So, i decided to ask IK Multimedia (the makers of Amplitube) for a demo. IK Multimedia products of that era are very easy to crack, I have a keygen for them that always works fine.
To my surprise, they told me they DON´T HAVE THE PLUGIN ANYMORE, that it is too old. How can be possible that a sofware house doesn´t keep a backup of their own products? I mean, of ALL their own products? Their argument of the plugin being too old was clearly bs, so i insisted. I told them i would buy the product if i liked it. So, magically, they found an installer for Amplitube 1.3 and sent a download link to me. My disappointment was high when i downloaded it only to found out it was the OSX version. So i wrote them again, explaining the difference between OS 9 and OS X, gave them a little history lesson, and adviced them to look for a .sit file, not a .dmg. I even told them that the two verions were contemporary. I knew more of IK Multimedia that their own employeers. Absurd.
Long story short, they told me again that they just don´t have the plugin anymore.
What do you think guys?
