(contenu en anglais)Battery is a software application and plug-in that can be used as a stand-alone software instrument, or as a plug-in inside a DAW. Battery is a huge library of drum samples. This includes 'acoustic' sounds as well as 'synthetic' sounds. The synthetic drum samples include samples from analog drum machines and also sample from digital drum machines. There are also a large amount of pre-processed/treated/effected drum samples included if you don't want to spend the time to tweak raw or stale sounding drum samples.
Battery can be purchased on its own from Native Instruments, however I received it as part of the Native Instruments Komplete Bundle. It can be downloaded off the NI website and installed. Authorization is completed using the NI Service Center application.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Battery is really easy to use, mostly because it has one purpose - trigger drum samples. It is simple to load the included samples with Battery, and also load samples that weren't included in the library if you have some of your own that you would like to use. There is a lot of editing that can be done with the samples like: effects, adsr envelope, etc. One of the best effects is the 'saturation'. It is really useful for making the drum samples 'punch' in a mix.
I have always wished that Battery included a sequencer for drum pattern editing. My wish came true with NI released Maschine, but I would have rather seen it included in Battery earlier. Having a library of patterns would have also been helpful.
OVERALL OPINION
Native Instruments have clearly moved on from Battery to Maschine as their synth-drum software of the future. However, Battery has a lot to offer Komplete users that don't want to purchase Maschine. The classic synth drum sounds are all included (808, 909, Linn, etc) and there are plenty of unique sampled drums included as well. This library was really designed to compete with BFD2, Superior Drummer 2, Addictive Drumms, Steven Slate Drums, etc. You should look into the NI Studio Drummer Series if you want realistic multi-sampled drum sounds. Battery still gets use in my studio for layering individual drum samples.00- BeyondRPublié le 02/09/12 à 15:36 (contenu en anglais)Native Instruments Battery 3 is compatible with Windows Xp , 7 and Mac, I haven't encountered any problems regarding the help manual, everything is pretty well explained and the functions are easily accessible.
The general configuration is great,everything works fast and the interface is straight forwarded.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
The application performs well without using a lot of cpu resources and it provides some great balance between the human touch and the pc programming of the drums.
The sampling engine has been changed and it has now a lot of improvements, the sample library is bigger and better, the matrix cells now can contain up to 128 patterns.
The gear is very stable, as usual Native Instruments make a very good job.
I've been using for about 2 months, and I gotta admit I like a lot, and I've been using in my electronic type of tracks and some that carry a rocky feel.
OVERALL OPINION
What I like most about it are the new functions that consist of a humanise choice and a choice of drumming articulations.
Battery 3 has also been given a visible renovation - the angular, medical look of previously variations is gone and now we have a Pro feel.
With all of its new features I could claim that is one of the best drum programming soft now on the market, You should check it out, the humanize functions really make a difference, and My advice is to use a midi controller, because that way you have full control over velocity of your drums and layers.
The precision of the drums is well fixed, I like the snares sounds, you can easily create some great layering with those 12 gb of drum samples, so using the Native Instruments Battery can really boost your creativity patterns.
I would buy over and over again Native Instruments Battery 3 because of it's high quality samples and the help that provides to the musician.00 - stompboxjon

Publié le 22/05/12 à 19:07 (contenu en anglais)Native Instruments Battery 3 came out a while ago, I have upgraded several times since then. But as far as Batter 3 goes, it comes loaded with samples/sounds you can use right in your songs. There are a tone of kits that are available at the click of your mouse. Most of the sounds and kits I have never used and probably never will just because I have so many other drum programs that get the job done for me.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
Installing Batter 3 was easy, it didn’t take along at all and it doesn’t take up much of your cpu either. Getting to understand the program in depth may take a while though. It just seems like there are a lot of things that you can do but I didn’t take the time to learn them all and didn’t want to open up the manual. You can get by just buy messing around with stuff but in order to really know how to use everything you will need the manual or have to do a lot of trial and error.
OVERALL OPINION
Some of the kits sound really good, and some not so good. I am not really a fan of most of the real drum kits because I have other plug ins that specialize in that but there are some good SFX and Beatbox kits that come with Native instruments battery 3 that you can have a little fun with. Most of the sounds do need to be eq’ed though and have a lot of unnecessary frequencies that aren't helping the sound at all.
Overall, its decent. I say if you need something for drumming looking to addictive drums or a cheaper program like toontrack ez drummer if you are just looking for real drum sounds. But if you want a wide array of sounds and effects and to have some fun you can go with battery 3. You will spend days going through all of the kits. But they kits don’t load instantly there is a few seconds of a load up time which can get annoying after a while.

tout ce qu'il faut pour la batterie.
Publié le 25/09/11 à 16:59 (contenu en anglais)Native Battery has been my #1 go to sampler for years. It is easy to use and works great with all types of samples (not just drums). I use Battery to trigger samples using a trigger finger pad controller. You cannot go wrong with this software sampler. Getting started was easy, just load it up and install, insert it into a channel and you are good to go. You wont need a manual, but if you need one you can easily download one from the website.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
The library was stocked full of rhythm kits that got me going right away and has already made a difference in my productions. It isso powerful. I run a Mac G5 OS 10.4, 1.2 Gb, 1.6 Mhz, MAUDIO UNO, LOGIC 9 . Runs like a charm, and sounds great. My Favorite features are the Drag-and-Drop (loading sound files is so cool this way- select them all at once and BOOM!) and the Articulation pretty good on the MIDI drums, now I sound like a pro. Plus effects & filters for each cell! I can add or make a new kit like that - forever. Do they know how powerful this thing is? Not just for drums. Try loading SFX & BKG vocal sound files for a cool Radio/Podcast arsenal - a thousand useful adaptations.
OVERALL OPINION
Overall it doesn’t get much better then Battery 3, they have made some upgrades though and I think the newer version has been out for some time now. But I am very happy with Battery 3. If you are looking for a software that is a do it all drum software then look no further. This is it you wont need any other software vst for drumming. It has a kit for whatever your genre or taste in music has. It even has a beat box, which I love because it can bring some change up and creativity to your tracks. Awesome program!

- Avec le DVD1 du package inséré dans le lecteur, installer l'update de battery 3 à télécharger sur le website NI, renseigner le dossier d'installation du plugin 64 bits (Programs/Steinberg/Vst plugins), et là, ça marche.
ATTENTION : si vous bossez en 64 bits et que vous commencez par installer le DVD tout fraichement sorti de son joli package, ça va être chaud de chez chaud pour trouver la solution !
Je ne vous garantis pas que tout ceci soit absolument nécessaire, mais en tout cas, ça marche comme ça, et avant, ça a merdé pendant trois jours, avec réinstallation de tout le système entre-temps !
ADÉQUATION/PERFORMANCE
Je bosse sur un PC Win 7 pro en 64 bits (une carte mère Intel DP45SG, un processeur Intel Core 2 Quad q9650 775 3ghz, 8 Go de Ram DDR3, une carte son Steinberg MR816 CSX, deux disques durs 500 Go SATA2). ça marche du feu de dieu de la mort qui tue, hyper stable, puissant que t'as jamais vu ça sur un PC, avec le Cubase 5 qui fait le triple du boulot d'un pro-tools à dix fois son prix, matériel compris.
Battery 3, une fois installé, parait fonctionner de manière extrèmement fiable et puissante dans cette config.
AVIS GLOBAL
je l'utilise depuis 2 semaines, de manière intensive. J'ai écouté et vu fonctionner Addictive Drums et Superior Drummer en 32 bits. Ils sont très mignons, très modernes, avec de jolis sons et de jolis dessins, mais ils ne fonctionnent pas de manière stable et native en 64 bits, et n'ont pas la moitié de la modularité et de la variété sonore de NI Battery 3, à moins d'acheter des banques hors de prix.
Le rapport qualité / prix est sans concurrence, et malgré une programmation plus ardue que ses concurrents (pas de loops en preset : si tu sais faire, ça va, sinon, si tu veux acheter le batteur internationnal moyen en plus des sons et des performances, va voir les autres) ce soft est au top.
La modularité, la variété des sons, et les possibilité de programmation des jeux (rolls, couches, articulations) sont formidables. Les sons sont extrèmement bons (je bosse en 48 khz 24 bits). La programmation d'un jeu sonore personnalisé est un jeu d'enfant, et très puissante, et profonde.
Malgré trois jours entiers de doutes quand à la possibilité de son installation en VST 64 bits (cf ci-dessus), je referais ce choix sans hésiter.Lire moins10 - vanpopoffPublié le 20/02/08 à 21:33Ras
