I can understand that - but ive been using Battery for the last 5 years, i cant be bothered switching to anything else now, despite its bugginess i still think its a great drum sampler

@ Magnus - not sure about the windows browser, i know exactly what you are talking about but i just use the battery audition window and no i dont think you can drag n drop still - ridiculous

I'm not at my DAW right now but when I get home tonight I will check this out because I am sure you can drag and drop. I know I can drag and drop from my Sonar browser into Battery 3 so can't see why it can't be done from within B3 itself.

yeah unless its in the most recent update, i havent actually tried it to see if it works, would be a nice surprise if it did!

Well I can tell you that it definitely supports samples drag and drops into cells:)

For me, its a completely stable synth; its top of my synth user freqeuncy chart;)

Ha! must try this out later - about time too NI! - now all they need to do is fix the library audition bug and ill be happy enough again

This is very interesting indeed. So you can drag and drop samples into cells from anywhere? Or do they have to be dragged from out of the Battery 3 browser?

I can drop samples from within the B3 browser; from within Sonar's browser and direct from windows.:)

yeah drag and drop from windows now works! must try drag and drop from ableton's browser but that might be pushing it ;)

Ive discovered something else that is irritating me and wasnt in the previous versions as far as i can remember
If you have a sample in a cell and want to to get rid of it and choose another, if you delete the cell it loses its routing....so say your snare/clap is on channel 5/6 and you want to change the sample, when you delete it the cell routing will revert to Master instead of staying at 5/6

I reported this to NI support and was told this is now the default behaviour :( - of course i could choose replace sample but then this opens a dialog window and i have to browse for the sample - id rather just drop it in from the battery browser

Seems like the library auditioning problem is a known bug in v3.06. I am on 3.04 and will stick with it until 3.1 is released. Seems theres a lot of p****d off B3 users on the NI forum about this bug.:(

yeah it makes listening to a potential sample "on beat" very hard - hopefully 3.1 will get it back to normal.

Interesting. So I tried this myself and still cannot drag from Windows into a cell using the VST version. However using the standalone version it works just fine. :confused:
