New Firmware v3.1 for Slim Phatty, LP Stage and Tribute

[Amos]

Hi AMOS once more. New note on the GLADE parameters:
...
Please note this in manual addendum

I fixed the addendum this morning; both GLIDE ON/OFF and what I am calling GLIDE MODE (always on/legato) are now listed with their correct CC numbers and values. Thank you!

BenjaminAM: build 671 is the official release (so, no changes )

Amos,

Thanks again for all of your hard work on this release, and don't get me wrong because it is AWESOME! But, any new news on how the Patty Stage and or Slim behaves with Live 8.2.2. Is it an issue with Live? I just kind of wonder because my other hardware synths are not acting this way with the envelope recording / playback behavior. (I owe you several beers plus a free dinner for all of the hard work you have been doing for us next time I am up in Asheville.)

I still have not reproduced the problem you're experiencing.
Tried it on a Tribute Edition via a MIDISport UNO running MIDI in and out between the Phatty and my MacBook Pro...
In Live I made sure to send MIDI clock to the Phatty; I had the Phatty MIDI Merge set to ON...
recorded knob sweeps from the Phatty into Live, had no glitches.

maybe you could send me the Live file you're using, and I can test it using my hardware here?
that would reduce a few of the variables, anyway...

(edit, tested Stage and Slim also, no issues there either)

[geoscience]

Thanks Amos,

I'll try a few more things here. I do have a MacBook with Live, no particular setup like my studio is. I plugged in the USB uno to the Stage II and still had the same problem. I'll get back to you soon.

Will the update wipe my presets, or am I good to go?

[fdemichelis]

hi folks!
just a question:
Will i lost all my LP presets after i do this firmware update? new presets will be loaded?
do i need to do a backup before doing it and then load it back again?
thank you very much!
cheers!

When installing the new fimware do I loose all my personalized and customized presets etc... on the little phatty?
Thanks

Hi there,

Thank you for LFO trigger that I've been waiting for since 2007 !
Video presentation is great and really appreciated guys
Hope to see more in the future.

What about the loss of customized presets which took me a lot of time? Do we loose everything?

i think you will not loose your presets, but of course is better to do a backup before change the firmware

[Electrolight]

the update doesn't, I'm pretty sure
at least not on the LP stage II

I am having a problem loading it to my LP stage 1. Stage 1 seemed to be fine and I went to open the Phatty Loader but it won't open. So, I am stuck with the LP saying Please Send Firmware. I tried to turn LP off and on but this doesn't work. All stages seemed to work fine so I am not sure why the Phatty Loader does not open. Any ideas?

I, at least, didn't lose my custom presets or receive any new ones either when I updated my LP SEII with the new firmware

[binary_idol]

Correct me if I am wrong, but there was no hint to switch ON the LP Stage (1) with Master button pressed in the instructions for the update.
This procedure enables the ability to recieve new firmware. I found this only in the Help menu of the Firmware Updater.

Well, I'm continuing to get the Checksum Failure message no matter what timing I set within the Phattyloader. My Slim, as of now, is what someone aptly described earlier as a phat paper weight. The update sends to the Slim just fine, it seems ... though the message "Receiving" on the lcd does occasionally blip to a bunch of numbers as the packets are sent. I can't be the only one having this problem. Any help? Suggestions on how to restore it at all? I guess I'd need to send it over USB or MIDI no matter what?
