After over two years of development and months of testing, I am thrilled to inform you that the V3 software has entered the OPEN BETA phase!

Version 3.040 of the software is available on our community forum ([community.ecumaster.com](http://community.ecumaster.com)) in the V3 BETA TESTS group.

The next step will be to release V3 software for EMU Classic (adapted to the hardware limitations of the EMU Classic, such as fewer outputs/inputs, etc.). I would also like to extend my thanks to everyone who participated in the V3 testing, reported bugs, gave suggestions, etc. It was excellent work and a huge motivation for us to keep improving the software! Happy testing! ---
