Hi everybody,
The upcoming Battery 3.0.5 update brings important technological improvements including a revised sampling engine and 64-bit support (full list of improvements
here).
For this reason, the Battery team has decided to set up a public beta test. This means that, starting immediately, registered Battery 3 owners can download a fully functional 3.0.5 beta version, and submit eventual bug findings to the Battery team over a special "bug tracker" web page.
As a Battery user, your main motivation to join the public beta test should be to help make sure that version 3.0.5 is rock solid! This is a pre-release version and should be used with caution in performance-critical environments.
So, how does this work?
- You need to be a registered Battery 3 owner to join the public beta test (this includes KOMPLETE 3/4/5)
- You can sign up for the public beta at http://www.native-instruments.com/in...?id=publicbeta
- You will receive a dedicated password via email to access the "public beta bug tracker"
What is important to know about the public beta version?
- It will be unlocked with your existing serial number
- It requires (and overwrites) a previous Battery 3.0.x installation on the same computer
How can I report technical issues to the Battery developers?
- Please use the "bug tracker" to report any technical issues, and try to word your findings as concise as possible
- Please understand that the Battery team cannot respond to individual bug reports - but every report will be looked into by the developers
- Please only use the bug tracker to submit bugs, which means: technical issues where the software doesn't work properly as intented
- Please do not use the bug tracker to submit feature requests or similar suggestions - this stuff belongs into the "feature request forum" instead
What else should you know?
- In order not to confuse users of the regular Battery 3.0.x version, please do not post public beta-related topics across the forum. There is a dedicated forum for all public beta discussion here:
http://www.native-instruments.com/fo...play.php?f=263
- There is no tech support given for the public beta version. Technical issues with this version are to be expected, and have to be solved in the development process.
On behalf of the Battery team, a big "thank you" in advance to everyone who joins this beta test and helps making Battery 3.0.5 the best version ever!
Regards, Thomas
