v7.3.0

What to Download

Warning

If you are using an Apple Silicon mac, be aware that macOS 14.4.0 suffers from a major Java-killing issue. This is fixed in macOS 14.4.1.

• If you already have a compatible Java runtime installed (Java 11 or later), you can just download the executable beat-link-trigger-7.3.0.jar file, and should be able to run it by double-clicking.
• If you are on a Mac and don’t want to have to worry about installing and managing a separate Java environment, you can download the MacOS disk image (.dmg) file, which contains a signed, notarized Mac application with the necessary Java runtime built right in.
• If you are on 64-bit Windows and don’t want to have to separately install Java you can download the Win64 MSI installer (.msi file), which installs a Windows application with the Java runtime built in.
• If you want to test what is going into the next release, look at the pre-release SNAPSHOT release (if any) at the top of the full Releases list.

What’s in the Release

✨Release 7.3 finally includes full support for working with CDJ-3000s, including benefiting from their precise position packets, displaying dynamic (DJ-created) loops, and avoiding complaints from the players even when there are five or six of them on the network. There are also several other cool new features for all player types, and some important fixes. Please see the Change Log for all the details.
