Air Instrument Pack

[Barry Johns]

I have the original Protools Instrument Expansion Pack for all the original Air Instruments.

I was looking to upgrade to the newest version, which appears to be Air Instrument Pack Three.

There does not seem to be a path that I can see that allows me to upgrade from the First version.

I've emailed them, but thought I'd post here as well to see if anyone has any experience with this.

Any ideas?

Frankly, I'm lost, not sure what to do. I'm pretty sure I got the Air Music Instrument packs through Digidesign back in the day, before Air had their own website. From memory, I paid to upgrade existing VI's to the complete bundle and got Strike at that point, and something else. All that was with Avid though. So now, apparently, Air Instrument has no record of me owning any of their products and I have no way that I can think of to prove I purchased them and am eligible for the upgrade.

Any suggestions.

[Barry Johns]

I found this in my Avid account, and now remember it was called something different then. It was called this:

I copied the above from my Avid account.

Music Production Toolkit, SoundReplacer, MP3 Option, Hybrid 1.5, Smack! LE, DINR LE, TL Space Native on 09/20/08 - Sold Previously

: Pro Tools Instrument Expansion Pack from Structure on 05/02/09 - Sold Previously

Pro Tools Instrument Expansion Pack from Structure on 10/19/10 - What I want to Upgrade, and its on my ilok.

Stil have no way to show Air Instruments that I am the original registered owner to be able to upgrade.

So I actually call them, strange idea right, and she gave me the code over the phone, which is generic for everyone, and it worked like a champ!

I love a happy ending!

Great to read you got it sorted.

For others who aren’t aware of this new easier option:
