Windows Beta testers wanted

Matthewsavant · 2023-03-14T22:05:49.332Z

I would love to be involved in this and I happen to have experience doing exactly this.

I spent two years at Akai Professional in QA and another year as the software Project manager during the development of the MPC renaissance, MPC studio, iMPC and the Ableton push among other projects. I also spent a year at Arturia doing QA for the Arturia spark and during my time at both companies I also did sound design work making expansions for the MPC series, Arturia spark and programing patches for the Prophet V/VS.

I have ample experience writing highly detailed reproducible bug reports and have been involved in the development of dozens of high level releases from concept to shipping often operation in multiple roles at the same time from writing spec sheets during a products conception to quality assurance to quality assurance lead to project management and more.

I have been using Elektron products since 2012 and have owned most of them (machinedrum uw, monomachine, octatrack, analog four, analog Rytm and Digitone) I have been using Overbridge since it was first released.

Additionally I have been involved in synthesizers and music production since 2004.

I have both Windows and OSX machines
My current machines are running Windows 10 and OSX Ventura
(I’d be willing to upgrade/downgrade OS if needed for testing purposes)
For Overbridge capable machines I currently own I have the Analog four mk1 Analog Rytm mk1 and Digitone. I have experience in all major DAWs but prefer Ableton.
I am very familiar in working on projects with NDAs and/or that require complete discretion and would honor any agreement in privacy.

I would be very happy to participate in testing and would hope that it could lead to further opportunities.

Please let me know if you’re interested and if you require any more information.

Cheeky comment coming up…

Sadly can’t contribute to this as I’m still running Win 7 with Overbridge. I use REAPER as my DAW which as we all know has some Overbridge issues across Windows.

I see there’s a few above but could I urge any available Win 10/11 REAPER users to put themselves forward if they can?

Could I also please urge Elektron to make sure they try to include REAPER in the beta? Big thanks!

I’d be up for it if you were planning on somehow giving the OT mk2 overbridge, which I know isn’t happening.

However I haven’t seen any announcement of winners from the survey, so if I’m fortunate to win the Syntakt then I’m a potential contender.

I use Windows 7, I have Windows 10, and my DAW is FL Studio, I haven’t updated it since I rarely use it but I can test from version 11 or update to the current one if you can glean any useful data from these options.

Keep up the stellar work you guys do!
