Hi everybody,
we would like to inform you that our long awaited update files are available for download. Sorry for the delay - due to some technical problems at Native Instruments the files went online much later than we expected.
This post is addressed to all using one of the following versions:
Mr. Sax: 1.01
The Trumpet: 1.01 or 2.01.
The available new versions are:
Mr. Sax: 1.02
The Trumpet: 2.01a
We strongly recommend to update your software, since the new versions include important bug fixes and improvements (for details - see below).
Instruments purchased after February 16th, 2009 are the most recent versions and do not need to be updated.
Please download the (free) update files applying one of the following methods:
1) Service Center.
Start your Service Center (make sure you are using the latest version), go to UPDATE -> Content-Downloads and -Updates, choose the appropriate product and click on "Download". Please note to which folder you download the updater (the download path is user-definable)2) Native Instruments homepage.
Go to http://www.native-instruments.com ->
Support -> Updates and drivers; log in, choose the appropriate product and click on "Send" to display available files, which you can donwload.
After download, extract the ZIP-files and follow the instructions in the Readme.txt.
Please note: if you use The Trumpet v. 1.01, there is no need to download the installer 2.01. Instead, you can directly use the ZIP file 2.01a.
We hope you will enjoy it!
Best regards
