COSMOS

USER MANUAL

FIRMWARE UPDATE

COSMOS firmware is easily upgradable. Several firmware versions are available, providing 

different algorithms and their variations.

To download new firmware:

1. Download the firmware from 

somasynths.com —> COSMOS —> FIRMWARE

2. Save the firmware in the root directory of the flash drive. The file system of the flash 

drive must be FAT32. We recommend that you do not use high-capacity flash drives. 1-32 

GB flash drives are ideal. Do not put several firmware versions in the root directory of one 

flash drive!

3. Turn off COSMOS.

4. Insert the flash drive into the USB port on the rear panel.

5. While holding down the RECORD button, turn on the power switch.

6. The switching of the LEDs above the RECORD button indicates a successful progress of 

update process.

7. Upon completion of the update process, COSMOS will automatically enter the operating 

mode, which will be evidenced by the running light on LEDs from left to right, which you 

see every time you turn on the device.

8. Now the flash drive can be removed.

If the firmware update process fails, the red LED next to the 

IN

 knob will turn on. If this 

happens:

• Check the operability of the flash drive.

• Make sure the firmware is placed in the root directory and the file name has not been 

changed.

• Try another flash drive.

• Try to delete all contents from the flash drive and format it before copying the firmware.
