Mother 32

You can identify your firmware version by sending THIS SysEx file to your Mother 32. 

When you run the SysEx programme, the octave light will indicate the version number, and the sequencer lights will indicate the version division. 

Example (V2.01): This will display the second octave, and the first step.

Subharmonicon

You can identify your firmware version by sending THIS SysEx file to your Subharmonicon. 

When you send that file, look at the SEQ 1 buttons in the Polyrhythm section on the front panel. You'll see these lights blink from left to right to indicate the currently loaded version. 

Example (V1.1.1): You'll see the SEQ 1 button under RHYTHM 1 blink once, the button under RHYTHM 2 blink once, then the button under RHYTHM 3 blink once.

Minitaur

You can identify your firmware version by installing and connecting to the editor software. You can find the editor HERE.

Moog One

You can identify your firmware version by navigating to SETTINGS > UTILITIES > FIRMWARE VERSION.

Grandmother & Matriarch

To access the Grandmother & Matriarch's GLOBAL SETTINGS, simultaneously press and hold the HOLD button (on the Left-Hand Controller) and SYNC button (in Oscillator 1) until the SYNC button begins to blink. Now you can use the keyboard commands listed below to make any needed changes to the Global Settings. The SYNC button will continue to blink a number of times to indicate which Global Setting is currently selected. 

This function indicates the currently-installed firmware version, using the lights on the LHC buttons. Hold the highest black key (A#2 for Grandmother, A#3 for Matriarch), and while holding it press the next-to-lowest black key (G#0 for Grandmother, D#0 for Matriarch). Count the number of times the PLAY, HOLD, and TAP buttons blink on/off to read the version number. 

PLAY = Major version number

HOLD = Minor version number 

TAP = Minuscule/bugfix version number

Example (V1.1.0): PLAY button blinks one time, then HOLD button blinks one time, then TAP button blinks zero times (does not light at all).

When you have finished making any changes, simply press the SYNC button to exit the Global Settings edit mode.

Subsequent 25

You can identify your firmware version by sending THIS SysEx file to your Subsequent 25.

BANK 1 will flash to indicate your major firmware version, BANK 2 will flash to indicate your minor firmware version, and BANK 3 will indicate your bug fix version. 

One blink = 1

Two blinks = 2

Subsequent 37

You can identify your firmware version by navigation to PAGE 3 of the GLOBAL menu. On the bottom of the screen,  "M" indicates main firmware version, "P" indicates panel firmware version. 

Theremini

Hold down SETUP and turn the Theremini ON to see the version number of the installed firmware.
