Today I noticed a small software bug which affects some (~20%)units, the symptom is that when upgrading the firmware instead of going into boot-loader mode the device just resets.

I have released a firmware update which fixes this on all units, once you update your Spectra with this code the firmware update will work without any issue.

To do this ...

Connect your Spectra, start the utility, click update firmware, when you see the Spectra display its start up pattern pull out the USB, hold the four corner arcade buttons and connect the USB again. The device should now show the blue boot-loader pattern and the utility will continue the update process.

should be expecting mine on saturday... excited but a little bit nervous how my unit will look in person. chose a white base, clear blue top, and blue buttons. Think I should have gone with the red base, blue top and yellow buttons instead... hmmm

That is a Midi Fighter Classic without the Silicon Sleeve on, the bottom was always clear.

I'm cool with just one! Although if that happen I suggest a community mix contest and set two Spectras as rewards

Damn Stewe! Apparently you weren't meant to have a Spectra.

Good luck! Hopefully you'll get it before Spectra MKII comes out...lol

Hope they solve it this time without returning it.. And i thought i had problems when they wanted to charge me Customs for 20 Midi Fighters as DJTT made a mistake on the declaration form. But i see now that that was nothing compared to this

You can easily redo it in ableton with dummy clips, will be harder to sequence in traktor but not impossible.

I was wondering something:

would it be possible to make your MF spectra show the rainbow colors all the time?

like not only in sleep mode but also when you are using it

2 track decks + 2 remix decks with either an external mixer or a separate controller for it. You can easily cycle through the remix decks holding shift + page up/down with your MF (works with the 3D too). Bank 4 is currently empty so there is room for improvement. I will add sample capture and loop recorder control in a future update.

My portable gig setup atm is the Spectra along with my soundcard and Lemur for FX control.

I might upload a C/D version of this mapping in the future for people using a S2 and such but that won't come until I am certain this one is flawless (I haven't found any bugs yet).

Edit: added the tutorial pdf to my previous post.

Hey padi, by 2+2 are you implying that it is for 2 spectras or a 2+2 mixer? Also what is the mapping able to control? I'm a little curious and in school so I cannot test out yet hah

According to words of customs, problem was with shipping details and not the package content.
