Hi Thomas

I've just been trying out the new update - good that it's now possible to save a blank default kit. I see that drag & drop from outside of Battery and in kit preview (i.e. the ability to play Wavs before loading them) a la Battery 2 aren't implemented though. Can I just ask - is this a decision to move away from the Battery 2 style of working or is this still work in progress? These have always been the two main things that have kept me with Battery 2.

Neil.

 

Just to add.. when I quit Battery 3 it crashed Logic and at one point my mouse arrow vanished (but the mouse still functioned). Never happened before - anyone else have this with the new update?

 

where to install

where should I install the update ? I have the Battery VST in the VST folder . I tried that but I still have th eold version.
can someone direct me plz.

 

so I downloaded the update,

And it still reads in the about window as version 3.0..1

what gives?

 

Not surfe. Haven't tried yet. Maybe you need to unistall and reinstall the update only. From what I can remember this is how 3.0.1 was done...

Correct me if I'm wrong...

 

hello,


in the standalone, it still real 3.0.1.005,

but in the plug-in it reads 3.0.2.006

 

Well I suspect you have not checked the "Stand alone" box when installing this update. Do it again and make sure you have it select ed

 

there is no "stand alone box,

only vst, au, rtas, and library

 

Eh? May guess would be to completely uninstall Battery and then reinstall this update from scratch.

My installer (3.0.2) gives me options:

Battery stand alone application
VST
DXi
RTAS
Library

you should see alll these options with this install file.... ?

 

Battery works again. Well done NI.

 

my installer mac

basic installation
vst
au
rtas
library

i just tried the basic install, i will report back

it is not a big deal, as i just use battery with in ableton

 

no dice!

 

So is the service center the only way to install the update or is there another source ?

 

It's there on the site in the usual place as well (Support>Downloads).

 

For ****s sake! CELLS DO NOT LIGHT UP WHEN TRIGGERING MULTIPLE CELLS SIMULTANEOUSLY! Only the cell with the lowest midi note lights up, just like before this
update.

Before I go on can everybody or just somebody confirm this please?

Man! I've been waiting for this fix for ages and... ok please somebody confirm. :angry:

 

I hope I am doing something wrong.
Is it that it still can't open K2.2 files?

for whatever reason I thought it imported up to K2.1..... apparently not, my bad......
isn't Battery 3 based on the K2 engine?
