FM9 Firmware Version 9.00

[Admin M@]

The link for the Factory Presets in the release notes does not work

I just removed that file to prevent people from accidentally installing the wrong version.
Use the link in the original post of this thread or re-download the firmware for a revised PDF.

It’s finally here! I can’t wait to try it out.

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the Dynacabs? I've installed the included file twice and it looks like the presets are preconfigured using Dynacabs now, but all of them appear blank for me. I've attached a couple of screenshots. I'm not getting the message on my FM9 after installing, so they seem to be installed, just blank? It's most likely user error, just not sure what the error is exactly.

You should be on 1.03.10. Did you update both the FM9 FW and the FM9-Edit FW?

I did. I don't know why its doing this

 

[BROCKSTAR]

ok fm9 is updated with firmware and presets! Didn't have to do the dynacabs! No issue!

I did. I don't know why its doing this

I updated my Edit to the latest before applying the 3 FW updates, and everything went good. Did get an error on the FM-9 in the middle of the process saying Dyna Cab files were wrong, and to cancel out of the error message to continue, but since the Dyna Cab update is the last of the 3 update files to apply, not a big deal but Fractal-Bot should state this would occur.

My biggest issue now is not all my regular presets I use are pushing over 84% (from around 76% before) causing multiple lockups on Edit. For the time being I just deleted my Pitch (POG) block until I can figure out how to address. Running FM9 Turbo MKII. With the higher CPU demands now, seems like we may need some different sound quality settings for some blocks. The Non-Turbo guys are screwed....

That worked, thank you! Apologies if missed that step in the documentation

Based on the described changes my main presets (which use compressors and vibe) are likely to be impacted. Remind me, is there a way to try the update or revert to the previous version if need be?

Yes. Create a full backup before updating.

Make sure when you update that you're selecting the correct file.

That is disheartening. I may just not update.

• Backup
• Update
• Try it

If you don't like it, reload the previous firmware.

If you saved any presets under the newer firmware, restore them from backup.

Check your Compressor block.

What version were you running previously?

The Non-Turbo guys are screwed....

Not at all... Everything is relative.

I am seeing the same thing. Having to rework some as well as considering using the VP4 to take some of the CPU load.

did something change with the shimmers? i was using econo shimmer before and it sounded very smooth and in tune. now it's kind of pulsating and dissonant.
