Firmware Update

Unplug all inputs/outputs from the module. Connect 

the output of your audio interface or sound card to 

the 

IN input jack. Set the FREQ knob to 12 o’clock. 

Power on your modular system while holding the 

POLY 

button, then release. Both LEDs should blink amber.

When you are all set, play the firmware update file into 

the module. While the module receives data, the 

POLY 

LED will blink green, and the 

MODE LED will monitor 

the signal level. Signal reception is optimal when the 

MODE LED is green or yellow. Try adjusting the FREQ 

knob to change gain. The module will periodically 

pause to write data to its permanent memory. Both 

LEDs will be amber during these pauses. When the 

end of the audio file is reached, the module will 

automatically restart. If it doesn’t restart, please retry 

the procedure.

If the signal level is too weak, the LEDs will blink red 

in an alternating pattern. Press the 

POLY button and 

retry with a higher gain. If this doesn’t help, try the 

procedure from a different computer or audio interface, 

and make sure that no other equipment (such as an 

equalizer or FX processor) is inserted in the signal 

chain.
