15.7 Firmware
The M-Series is internally based on programmable logic. By re-programming of a little compo-
nent called Flash-PROM, both function and behaviour of the unit can be changed at any time.
At the time of writing this manual, M-32 AD and M-16 AD are shipped with firmware 1.5. The
firmware version is displayed after power on for about one second on the level meters of the M-
series units.
Firmware 1.5: Initial release
Firmware 2.1: ADAT Copy mode for M-16 AD (in Single Speed operation the M-16 AD mirrors
the output signal, so all 4 ADAT outputs are used). The temperature inside the unit can be read
via MIDI. The fan operation can be changed via MIDI.
