Until the end of May 2010, for 50$ you can get SampleTank 2.5 XT + a number of extra Xpansion packages depending on how many people sign up to the group buy.
I’m preparing a tutorial video on how to import MIDI files in Podium, so I was recently searching for GM (General MIDI) capable plugins. This group buy came in handy, as it contains the OmniSynth GM bank. I bought it yesterday.
There is some discussion about the group buy on kvr (with links to the purchase page):

From the discussion it seems that you get an extra bank if you order it through esoundz.com, but not sure about that.
If you have previous SampleTank/SonicReality products, then there may be some overlap with these new Xpansion products, as they partially consist of material from earlier products. But for people that are new to SampleTank (like me), it is a great deal.
Anyone here that are participating in this group buy?
