BATTERY DRUMS RTAS, DOES IT WORK, HOW\'S IT WORKING

Hi, I am considering purchasing battery drum module? How is it working in PT6.7 MAC OSX? any bugs/problems? How do you rate it? Regards Chris

I've been using it for a few months now (on PT LE 6.7cs8, OSX 10.3.7) and it works fine. I got it as a part of the NI Komplete package, so I've been busy with other synths and haven't given it the full run through. Version 2 works fine too, BTW. As far as it's usefulness (compared to just using Kontak, eg), I can't yet report on that. But it integrates smoothly as an RTAS plug.

Battery 1 doesn't work in PT 6.7 but Battery 2 does. I think its about the only NI plugin that works like it should all the time.

This is exactly what I wanted to know as well. If the soft synth/sampler (especially w/ Native Instruments) had improved. Seems like it hasn't. I'm seriously considering a dedicated PC to run virtual instruments. Myshell

Hello, I have tried the battery 2 demo! When i load a kit into battery! all midi in PT quits working!! as soon as i de-activate the battery plugin, all midi returns!! Regards Chris

This ProTools / Native Instruments void has been around for years now and it is really annoying. I keep hearing about a fix from both companies, but have not seen anything real. This is a serious problem for us and I have lost business to Logic and Cubase because I can not do the heavily programmed stuff with my much more expensive HD3 rig. . . ridiculous. Using another computer turns into a bit of an i/o nightmare as well as a loss of integration. Digi and NI should just get it done! We did our part, we purchased the products that are supposed to work. Hey, maybe there should be False Technical Claims Police so we can report this kind of stuff to someone these companies are forced to listen to;-)

I'm still on LE, but compared to other plugs I find Battery 2 very CPU hungry, more than Battery 1. Moreover, Battery 2 has some ridicules features like its compressor with unusable sttings. I've bounced the best hits and during building a song I load these bounced sounds into Redrum (Reason) that is very well mac/optimized. I can't live without Reason. I think NI must to optimize its plugs on mac platform before mac users switch to other stuff, since OSX was out NI stuff performes worse on mac.

Desperatley need cable for digi 001
