What is a beta programme?

Linn has a beta programme to allow external use and testing of new software and hardware prior to its formal release. Whilst we provide and test against recommended environments, in an open system, there are many different tweaks and changes that DS customers can employ. The beta programme helps ensure that an upcoming release of software works in as many of those different environments as possible.

Characteristics of a Linn beta release

Who should participate in the beta programme?

Technically advanced DS users who:

  • Don't mind if their DS doesn't play any music for a couple of hours, or even a couple of days.
  • Don't mind that they can't use all of their current control points.
  • Are willing to discuss their experiences on the development forum (http://forums.linn.co.uk/bb/forumdisplay.php?fid=5)
  • Are willing to raise bugs on http://products.linn.co.uk/trac/ and then track and test the potential solutions to those bugs.
  • Want to ensure their environment has robust support when the software is fully released.
