Years later and I still reference your videos. They are amazingly well orchestrated content for beginners and professionals alike. Thank you.

Just right .... no BS or background music, just the good stuff.

I just Battery and I was looking for a good overview video. Well done. Much appreciated.

Impressive delivery of highlights throughout this instrument. Great job demonstrating the Where, Why, and How. Much appreciated. Highly Recommended !

Mandatory video for begginers to save their time

Such a great tool. I got this as part of Komplete 12 and haven't used it yet. I use multiple DAWs so it makes sense to keep my kits in a VST rather than use a native tool like Impact XT or a native drum rack. Another good thing to know for Komplete owners is that if they don't have Machine, then they can use Battery to access their machine library packs that come with Komplete.

this is a wonderful tutorial! thank you so much for making this video for us do-it-yourself musicians! :)

Wow, what an excellent tutorial! I've never used Battery before today and your tutorial got me started right away. And it was very detailed but without sending me into brain fog mode. LOL!

I really appreciate your explanation … thanks allot you really help me 💐

That was awesome, thanks. The beginning is super basic stuff, which some people definitely need, but from about the halfway point it gets into the meat that probably most people need but those basics at the start are still important to include. Awesome video, thanks a lot.

Best video I have seen, so far. Thank you so much. Like stated below, no BS etc. I can see you're a S1 user, too. Kudos ;)

Great intro to battery thank you so much, I've had this for a while as I have Komplete 12, just not used it, never knew it could do so much

nicely done, thank you!

Great job. Well done man. Keep doing it

Thank you for a great video that was easily understood and informative!

NIce work, a good overview - detailed

Thank you!

this is incredible, thanks for this tutorial!

If XLN's XO merged with Battery's presentation, we would have a monster on our hands.

I never realised how powerful battery is. Its like a mini daw!

How can I play several notes of the same one shot?

Very good and informative

Thank You !!! 👍

How do you use the default preset that plays when you preview the drumkit??? That's all I wanna know lol

Perfect tutorial, to the point.. no Bs.. good job and keep it going..

Thanx. Great Video.

Great job. This basically teaches how to use battery. I went along with you as i watched and walla i know how to use battery. In to your next video

Great video! Is there a way to save just the cell/pad note assignments - say for a LaunchPad - so that when you open any kit, the cell/pad midi note assignments already mapped?

Thank you for this compact overview. Is there a reason (benefit) why you don't use battery within Kontakt (with that useful preview feature) but as a standalone?

Very helpful!

Ya videos helped me out big time!! you explained everything that I was looking for perfectly

Any reason why when I move a sample to a different pad, the pitch changes completely and can’t even be adjusted back to what it sounded like before moving pads?? This only happens on certain kits

Hi, Do you still get all these kits when purchasing the new Battery 4 ? Thanks

Most days like studio one have drum samplers whats the better reason for having battery?

Excellent walkthrough.Thanks. Do you go in depth in other tutorials?

Thank you for this video. Now i am searching for a flexible drum/rhythm-Generator vst.... i found "Liquid Rhythm" but i am not sure about buying it.

whats the point of battery if i have maschine? what can i do with this that I can't do with maschine?

How do you program the key of the kit? I just want to simply assign the key of the kit. I cannot figure this out to save my life

Excellent video bro!

Is it possible to move a square to a different midi note?

Thank You! Good guide for beginner! I have one question, is it possible to "copy" the midi-notes of the preview samples in my daw? I mean the samples that you hear when you go through the individual kits in the browser on the left side of battery.

Hi, When I listen to previews in Battery they seem to be playing melodies with the synth samples. Could you tell me how to do this. There are some great sounds in Battery that I would like to actually play not just trigger. Thanks!

Bless up

Can I navigate the browser with my keyboard arrow keys? Kind of a deal breaker for me. I hate using the mouse

Great video thanks. But I don't understand how I can sync the BPM to the DAW. Battery is a standalone app and no VST and I don't see any setting how to connect it.

Is there any way to identify the key or specific notes/chords being played in a sample?

I loaded battery on maschine but the sounds won't load on my pads do you know what it might be

what is the tempo for? I don't see a built-in drum sequencer.

I am trying to record a song in the key of D, But all the kick drums are in C. How do I change the key of the kick to D?

Exactly what I wanted. Wow! This may be a confusing question but what is your workflow when it comes to samples? I mean when you want a kick drum, for example, where do you look? Do you get your drum sounds from Battery 4 or somewhere else? I'm looking for smart and time-saving advice.

Is there something I can do to be able to play a certain sample in a certain key, (say the 808s and be able to play them in any key) without taking out the file and putting it in another vst ect.

Thank You dude

I have a 700GB sample library... How do i search for samples in the files section while still maintaining the file view?

Which midi-controller did you use with Battery 4? Thanks!

can you solo a cell in battery 4?

Nice Tutorial. I wonder though, can Battery open Maschine Kits?

is it for free ? because i want to download it but i don't wan't to buy it :)

I'm using Pro tools and need help getting sound out of Batter 4. How do I route Battery into Pro Tools to get it to play? I know I need to put Battery on an instrument track then route it somehow, I guess. Please help someone.

When I press a key on my external device it only plays the sound in Battery for as long as I hold it (that's fine I gues). But how can I change the settings, so that when I press the sound in Battery it directly plays the whole AudioFile.... and also is it possible to trigger the selcted sound with your keyboard? I am using it in ableton and somehow the spacebar is only directed to ableton but not to Battery

Buddy this was GREAT! I just stumbled on it. Thank you.

But you don’t explain how to create a rhythm part. How do you actually USE battery? Thanks for the walk round of the main screen but this video fails to actually explain how to get a beat, loop, pattern etc out of Battery... so I still don’t know how it works. Is there a TR style grid to work with? Can’t find a thing, so how does it actually work in my mix?

Way too complicated..just to make a beat u would spend hours setting this up..

Battery 4 and studio one?!? Subbed for sure my guy!! Great content!

I click the Midi follow button but my ATOM still only plays one sample. Any help or ideas as to why?!

my drum loop sample wont sync to the project even though sync is switched on? what am i doing wrong? thanks

How to download sound samples pack?🙏🙏🙏🙏

How to solve patch delay problem

nice tutorial ..thanks a ton

I have almost 30 cells playing at the same time. How do I turn that off?

in komplete kontrol im able to hear beats/melodies when demoing the patches, am i able to play the sound furtherest on the right to play as a melody opposed to a single note?

hello,Thank you for helping us with this video,But I'm a novice,Can you give me a video on how to install this audio source to CUBASE?

Great tutorial. I just started with battery 4, and I have a question, is there a way to find the key of the samples in the battery library?

cool video, learned a lot from it! Thank you!

does anyone know how to make the midi note determine the length of the sample? therefore if you programme a 16th note you will listen to a smaller part of the sample than if you programme an 8th note? thanks in advance :)

Thank you! I just wanted to know how to delete a cell and you answered that @ 7:40. I will probably watch the rest of the video though. Thank you.

Who else besides NI would make a64 cell drum sample grid? What a mess!

Great video! Very nicely done I was wondering is there a tap to enlarge the plugin on the screen I would appreciate the tip?

Great tutorial. So gutted I've only just discovered Battery but looking forward to improving my productions now that I have!

Is this hooked on phonics or what? Just what i need!

thank you so much !

Help a lot. Tks so much!!!

Very nice.. thank you.

Great tutorial!

This is a great video and I'd ask to activate CC so that we can read instead of listen when preferred.

pure gold, just got Battery yesterday so helpful

very accurate mate! very precise! good job!!

I wanted to hear the birds ! :)

Great Startup help Thanks!

Are all these samples set to the key of C? I love to tune my drums. Also I wish those chords samples would tell you what key they are on 😫

Any idea why battery is scanning user library EVERY TIME I am opening it? It takes forever and non productive. Thank for your help!
