AIR 3 Beta for Mac

[PhilP]

I just want to believe that there's more process and planning going on than what we mere mortals perceive.

That's the spirit!

As far as I'm aware you're able to disclose that you're under NDA although the terms are usually confidential for obvious reasons.  So, people would be free to say 'we are in discussions but we're under NDA so can't reveal anything'.  Otherwise it would put people in very tricky positions - just sitting there permanently silently perhaps if they had a number of NDA's...

Practically speaking I don't really see any need for an NDA or secrecy for something like hifi gear release dates or beta test programmes - the industry's too small for it to make any real difference and the sum total of people that are seriously interested are probably those subscribed to the threads here....

(And just incase its not obvious, I am not a covert operative of Devialet - cunningly planted to feel out the true patience and loyalty of their brand members - or under NDA.  Well, not with them anyway!  Hahhahahahhaaahaha)

just downloaded AIR3, activated the ethernet port in configurator and installed a lan cable between mini and dev. so far so good. when opening launchpad and clicking on the AIR3 icon nothing happens besides that launchpad closes and desktop reappears. is this software incompatibel with yosemity and do I need to upgrade to maverick or is my 2009 mini not powerful enough to run it?

Have you select Devialet AIR as the output in System Preferences?

System Preferences > Sound > Output > Devialet AIR
