BeatBuddy AutoPilot 2020?

[sj1]

Hi. Is the Windows version looking good at this point?

[lperry65]

Is there an ETA on autopilot, been looking forward to this for some time now

[tonym]

Since this was promised as a “Coming Fall 2020!” feature that prompted some of us to buy a BB, it seems that some kind of ETA after this long a delay would be the very LEAST you owe your customers.

Sorry but I have to chime in here. I am trying to be positive but it doesn’t look like BBM is a priority to Singular Sound.
How many years does it take Developers for fix or enhance this? Are they working on BBM or something else like Aeros or Maestro?
See my posts from over 3 years ago. Here is one of them…

You get reposting due to frustration. Many of us have hung in there because we like BeatBuddy and support, but this has been a “selling point” they have not delivered on.

[GoranGrooves]

I hear you and I feel you. I am as frustrated as you are, believe me. The finish line is always so close, you can almost touch it, yet it somehow manages to stay one step away.

SS advertising for programmers again. Not a good sign.

@goranGrooves Any news? Will we be getting a Christmas present?

[Tim_Gaved]

He’s probably referring to this https://forum.singularsound.com/t/singular-sound-is-hiring-join-our-developer-team/27155

[boblette]

What exactly are you referring to? What would be the function of a BeatBuddy Loader, that would work differently than the BBM?

[Tim_Gaved]

This is what he said higher up in this topic back in May :

@GoranGrooves

However, a couple of days ago i tested the BeatBuddy Loader software for the first time. That’s the software that will ultimately replace the current BB Manager.
I am very excited about it. Has a few bits still to iron out, but it has already come a long way!
What it does is that you can easily manage and load content right on your sd card. It is very easy to use and fast.
Once the issues i reported are ironed out, we should be seeing it here for everyone to try out.

It currently does not provide for song editing or creation, nor drumset creation, but those are features that will be added in stages. And once they are implemented, you will be blown away by the results.

What we will have first is a beautiful utility to manage and load content.

@GoranGrooves I saw it on Instagram in the stories of both SS and David. But see it’s on the forum now as well.

[tonym]

How did the test with the new version go?

[Tim_Gaved]

I’m not in any way associated with SS, but Goran sent me copy of the software last week. I found one fairly important bug when I was using it which I fed back.
As Goran said above, it’s basic in what it does at the moment, so don’t get too excited. I guess it is progress though.

[Neil_McCann]

Yeah, I’m not sure if this new version will ever do what I’d like it to do unfortunately. I’ll be using the old BBM for a long time yet I think.

Since this topic has gone on for so long and accumulated so many messages, I propose that it be locked and a new topic started: BeatBuddy AutoPilot 2022

BTW, Happy New Year 2022 everybody!

[Tim_Gaved]

Or should it be BeatBuddy AutoPilot 2025? Happy New Year anyway!

[Rockindaddy]

You are being generous.

[BrewerGuy]

More of the same, we keep getting promises of improvements to the software side of BB but no real action or results

[Rockindaddy]

I’m sorry but I can’t help but wonder if Singular Sound is even working on this.
This thread started in July 2020.
And in a year and a half…nothing. Bizzare!
Last update of BBM manager was 2016. 6 years!! Sad.
