New in LiveProfessor 1.1 Beta 2 (Mar 1, 2013)

  • Basically you should check that you don't notice any difference from the current version.
  • This has to do with some fundamental changes made to the underlying framework of the app. This is needed to make the app ready for 2013+ (windows 8 etc) and to go 64bit (as many of you need).
  • So check basic stuff like that your asio-drivers load and that the plugins that used to load still does.
  • There are also some jBridge changes so does who are using jBridge, check that it still works, and for your guys that have trouble with jBridge in the current version, check if this update fixes things.
