Hey there,

I'm seeing a lot of chatter about freeze-ups with the latest 14.1 firmware. Can you roll back to 14.0?

 

[Mark's Tone]

Fractal will have it resolved quick like always.

I have no idea how to roll back to 14.0..haha!! trying to figure it out..thanks!!

^Yup, mine bricked. Ordered a couple EPROMs earlier today to fix me up. I highly recommend them for only $5ea + shipping for this very reason.

What is meant by "roll back" is that you can just use Fractal BOT and send it the previous version(s).

Ok sweet thanks everyone I reinstalled the firmware that the administrator send and boom she's fixed!!

 

[MrGuitarabuse]

Can small parts like EPROMs etc be ordered/shipped outside USA?

Thanks for this, my axe mkI froze last night durian a rehearsal and killed the sound. I've never had that happen before so I was surprised, didn't expect to see a patch haha, just thought it was some cosmic rays or something...
