1. Automatic checking for a new release
Connect your B.Beat to the network using the Ethernet cable, or via WiFi, the same way you would connect it to your computer to transfer backing tracks. If your PC is connected to the Internet, the system checks whether B.Beat is updated to the latest software release.
If it is not, the software prompts through a pop-up to update the system. The update procedure of B.Beat is automatic.
USING A USB STICK
NOTE: Make sure you don’t have any other files called ‘bbeatProSysSw.upd’ in your PC’s Download folder.

Once the changes are made, you insert this flash drive into B.Beat and it automatcally aligns the changes made off-line. The plugin requires payment of a fee.
