"We're excited about releasing this new version of GigaStudio to our customers," says Pete Snell, Sales and Marketing manager for GigaStudio. "We wanted a price structure that made upgrading to GS3 an easy decision to make. The new polyphony performance, 96k / 24-bit sample support, mixing power and GigaPulse technology are going to make a big impact on the way musicians work with samplers. And the current pricing of GigaStudio makes it less expensive to buy now and then upgrade than waiting for GigaStudio 3 to ship, making today the perfect time to get into GigaStudio."
Customers who purchased GigaStudio 2 after January 1, 2004 can take advantage of the following special pricing:
The standard prices to upgrade to GigaStudio 3 are as follows:
GigaStudio 3 Orchestra has a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $599. The MSRP for GigaStudio 3 Ensemble is $369, and the MSRP for GigaStudio 3 Solo is $199. GigaStudio 3 adds dozens of new features to GigaStudio, such as unlimited polyphony, VST plug-in support, 96k/24-bit sampling and ReWire support.
