v7.2.1

If you came here from the link in the first DJ TechTools article, please look at my instructions for more information about how to install and use Beat Link Trigger!

What to Download

• If you already have a compatible Java runtime installed (Java 11 or later), you can just download the executable beat-link-trigger-7.2.1.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

🔧 This is a quick follow-on to the 7.2.0 release to fix an issue that prevented new users of Beat Link Trigger from opening windows like Player Status and the Carabiner Connection.

✨Release 7.2.0 includes a great many fixes, and some notable additions like the new shallow playback simulator and other simulation shortcuts, cue library improvements, and fixes related to phrase triggers thanks to feedback from people who are finally using them. Please see the Change Log for all the details.
