Folks,

If you have one of the new production P3s or kits, or you have 
already upgraded the bootloader on your older P3 to take the new 
style firmware images (v3.1.xxx), you will need to patch your 
bootloader to accept future updates.
The patch updates the P3 bootloader with the new Sysex manufacturer 
ID for Sequentix Music Systems, replacing the rather naughty string 
of my initials previously used.

The patch file is called SysxIDPatch.syx, and a text file 
accompanies it with instructions on how to apply it. Essentially you 
just load it as a new firmware image, boot it once, then you can 
install the latest build, v3.1.002, which is also in the files 
section now.
Note that if you're using P3Tools to apply the update, you'll need 
to use the new version to install the latest firmware build, so it 
might be an idea to hold off until Dave has posted the version with 
the new sysex ID handling.

If you have not already updated the bootloader on your older P3, the 
update program now includes the new sysex ID code so doesn't need 
patched after installation.

This should be the last change needed to the bootloader, and keeps 
me legal with the nice people at the MMA. Sorry for any 
inconvenience...

v3.1.002 also switches to the new sysex ID for pattern dumps, 
although it will accept dumps with the old-style header, so your 
saved patterns do not need converted.

I hope this all makes sense - any questions, just give me a shout.

Cheers,
