Upgrade from Amp Farm to POD Farm Platinum
So the nice people at Line 6 have offered the opportunity to upgrade to POD Farm Platinum for $99 to licensed users of Amp Farm 3.0. Great news, and the POD Farm product has the best graphical interface for Pro Tools you've seen. The license for Platinum downloads nicely into iLok. So far so good.
Now: how on earth do you find the Platinum software to download? Off the Line 6 site it's relatively easy to download the regular POD Farm software, and it works fine in PT8.0. But how do you get at the Platinum (with all of the additional components)? Mergerboy PT8.0; G5; 192; Leopard Last edited by Mergerboy; 12-26-2008 at 11:20 PM. Reason: Adding my setup |

Re: Upgrade from Amp Farm to POD Farm Platinum
There's only one installer, POD Farm. Your platinum license will unlock all amps and efx (the regular license shows some stuff grayed-out). For $99, it's a ridiculously good deal, tons of stuff inside, and the plugin allows you to chain amps and efx together in whatever manner you like. Big mistake not to take this upgrade, and no, I don't work for Line6.....

Re: Upgrade from Amp Farm to POD Farm Platinum
One question... over the years we have done many projects using AmpFarm.
So, if I were to recall a session from say a couple of years ago will PODFarm be compatible and give me the same settings? It is not very clear as to if this is a totally new plugin or an enhanced version of the old one with backward compatibility... |

Re: Upgrade from Amp Farm to POD Farm Platinum
You can still use Amp Farm if you do the upgrade to PODFarm. They are totally different plugins. The sounds are different and, by the way, much better in PODFarm. As alw4461 said, it's all of the sounds in and functionality of the Pod X3.

Re: Upgrade from Amp Farm to POD Farm Platinum
A1:
I would think Amp Farm will still be available in the TDM drop down menu and Pod Farm would be in the RTAS menu. I cannot believe they would make it inoperable with an RTAS update for a TDM plug. If that's the case I'll hang back with the TDM version, thank you very much. And though this was a Digidesign sent message I find no mention of it in the "News" drop down on the Digi boot page. And there is no clarification on the Line 6 pages or FAQs either--to my eye anywaze. Anyone out there know where the actual skinny is regarding this? Digi? J Fred in Nashville

Re: Upgrade from Amp Farm to POD Farm Platinum
From what I see it is not a special deal and I'd say the End-Of-Life email was misleading. . . that is low down! After buying Amp Farm and paying all the upgrades along the way, it appears we have no advantage in this deal because it appears to be $99 for anyone off the street from what the website says.
