I have a beat buddy. its firmware is up to date. I just bought the Beat Boutique figuring I can install this all on to the beat buddy.
No instructions, no manual. I had to figure out finally after searching and downloading old updaters you guys have here that I can use the online thing to update my beat buddy… great I get there and now I have folders with .drm files that I paid for and have no idea where to drag these or drop these…
you guys have great stuff and you’d never know it from my message here but I am a pretty tech savvy guy and know what im doing usually… but this stuff is not intuitive in my opinion and I feel like ANYONE that buys this should be able to EASILY use it and there should be some guidance here… sorry I am frustrated here because I have spent a couple of hours of my day right now trying to figure out how to just use a simple thing I bought to make the beat buddy a little better for what I need… but there’s zero manual there’s nothing saying "hey thanks for buying this …heres how to use it with your beat buddy!’ I think like 1 page of something could eliminate a lot of issues here…
how do I use these ? how can I just install this onto the beat buddy so I can select drums sets and songs just like I do now? It is just a simple expansion no? why is this shit a mystery? I feel like im missing out on something here… but I also at the same time feel like If I am going to a website for something I bought it should be spelled out a little clearer when I buy it as to what’s next and how to install… im going on I get it but I think the fact im wasting time here in my day for something that should take 2 minutes is worth being upset about when I have shit to do …
thanks for anyone that can help me (when did I become old and senile??)
Hi. Sorry you’re having problems getting the Beat Boutique up and running.
There should have been a file included with your purchase titled readme-bundle.txt and it has the instructions which I’ve posted below. If this still does not help you, please reply to this thread or if you prefer, you can email Support at support@singularsound.com

so these are just drum sets then? There’s no midi files or grooves that come with these? I was expecting that as well I think thats why I got more confused. I was looking for more files to add etc.
