Fixed FM3 switches flickering and non-operative

The 3 onboard switches will intermittently begin to flicker on and off. This occurs after the unit has been powered on for a little while. Sometimes it takes 1 hour, sometimes 3. When this occurs the buttons no longer function. Audio is still passing and all the other onboard controls work. The FC-6 that's attached also still works fine. I even plugged in my old Liquid Foot JR+ and it triggers things fine as well. It really is only the 3 onboard switches in question.

We're working on resolving this. I believe it is the same cause of the bug reported here: https://forum.fractalaudio.com/threads/fm3-bug-freeze-with-footswitch-tuner-mode.171254/
 
OP, please confirm the issue being fixed after installing the latest beta.

So this happened again. This time, I rehearsed and performed a set of songs over the course of about 4 hours, and let the FM3 powered on for about 1 hour after I was done. When I returned to clean up my gear, i found the FM3 with the same blinking as in the video above (actually I think the screen was blinking too).... Wasn't plugged into a computer this time as was on the video.... is this a common problem?

Is this the same bug as I posted in this thread? The OP post in that thread had MIDI included, so slightly different than this one..... The post I quoted above seems to be similar to the bug that is fixed in 3.03 beta https://forum.fractalaudio.com/thre...splay-while-editing-midi-and-fm3-edit.172134/

I am not updating to the Beta - going to wait until the next official FW release.
