Maschine software and plus update
And FYI, the official next Maschine Plus update should come in Q4 this year.
Good on you. I respect the agreements I enter into.
I’d welcome to have direct interaction with Developers or Product Managers to explain issues or have deeper discussions on feature requests. Even workshops in Berlin could be an option. It would feel much more like being part of the team and achieving something together.
Still no invite…
I was optimistic sayin 10 over 100 ☺️. And probably you are optimistic too with your 95%, specially if testers get “chosen” in this way (“you want to partecipate? Invited!”).
Good serious beta testers are really hard to find. As I said, in the end it is a work you are doing for free
I don’t see an invite either. Is it supposed to go to our email or our NI account?
I'd like to get in on the beta testing as well. Thanks in advance!!!
I was asked a while back and politely declined because I knew I couldn’t contribute in a suitable way bcs of my home situation. I would love to be able to be a serious beta tester but I don’t have that time to spend, hence not taking beta testing lightly.
Me too, I never said I didn't.
I was just clearing up for others who might be reading that those things you mentioned simply do not happen from my experience, theres not even a place to fill in your phone number in the beta, who the heck would even use phone calls, it's 2023... Not even the forum team forces mod's to attend monthly zoom/google meetings, I attend if i have the availability... Matt who anwsered the AMA emailed me a long, long time ago ago about NKS and I missed the email, i replied like 3 or 4 months later when it was too late and no one sued me.
I'd say the most important obligation is following the NDA and not go around spreading what you might see.
You dont have to be too serious, if you were half as active there as you are here then you would be a decent tester. A not very active tester can still potentially find bugs or confirm other peoples bug reports for example. Betas arent a constant thign neither, a year can be quite active then nothing happens for the next year.
No one said you did. Why the wall of text. There is more than one way to do this.
A paragraph is hardly a wall of text, as I said I am explaining things for everyone else reading who might be deterred from joining the beta due to your alarming statements.
What did I say that causes alarm?
obligations of a tester
To have obligations is extremely alarming to a surprising number of people.
Fun fact: It is the exact same population that also thinks they are entitled to get everything for free or at a discount.
I unsubscribed from the beta because I have important projects and am waiting for the final version of the maschine plus firmware. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that someday version 1.5 will appear. I have currently disabled wifi and user data tracking. It helped a bit.
A tester with no difference from a user? I did went on to say beta test is not early access. It is one's choice to be alarmed at something anything just like one taking offense at something anything.
I've added a few more and you should have received an invite to Centercode.
