SampleTank 4 represents the next generation of IK's renowned sound and groove workstation, redesigned from the ground up to become an essential music creation tool for musicians. It features a vastly expanded sample library with up to 8,000 sounds spanning 250 GB, including top-quality recordings of concert pianos, guitars, bass, drums, strings, brass, synths, vocals, and percussion. The library benefits from extensive articulations and round robins, delivering an unprecedented level of realism with over 120,000 new samples.

The software introduces a powerful new sound engine that enhances creative sound design capabilities. Users can layer and split up to 16 simultaneous sounds using a dedicated interface, while advanced editing options include modeled filters, envelopes, oscillators, and polyphony control. A state-of-the-art modulation matrix allows for complex routing of envelopes, LFOs, and oscillators, enabling intricate soundscapes. The interface itself is fully scalable and zoomable for optimal use on any modern display, and a redesigned Sound Browser streamlines searching by style, genre, and mood.

SampleTank 4 also excels in live performance with a revamped Live mode offering intuitive controls and the ability to build set lists and song presets. It supports seamless integration with any standard MIDI controller, from keyboards to pads, making it suitable for both studio production and stage use. The package includes 70 studio-quality effects derived from IK’s acclaimed AmpliTube and T-RackS software, further expanding creative possibilities. Available in three versions—SE, standard, and MAX—SampleTank 4 caters to a broad range of musicians and producers.
