Sweet, thanks a lot!
I see this one contained "2.13A" and some minor other differences that I assume are the deadband changes.
BR,
Peter

Oh!
There was only one file in the attachment on my end.
Forgot the other one?

I sent 2 files. One is 2.13, the other is 2.13A. It was a well documented update at the time...

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the image.
However, looking at the hexcode I find this string:
"VERS 2.13"
No "A" in it.
Without being able to locate a regular 2.13 firmware, I can't compare the entire image to check if it's 2.13 or 2.13A.
I have 2.13 in my own Matrix-6, but I was hoping that I don't have to open it up and extract the ROM and read it only to find they're identical.
I assume you have a Matrix-6 with this firmware John. Could you just start yours and see if it says "2.13A"?
If not, how would anybody know which version they are using if it shows the same when you look at the software version in the synth?
Maybe there's no such thing as 2.13A :)
Regards,
Peter

Hi,
I have a Matrix-6 with 2.13 but I'd like to try the 2.13A if you could send the bin file to me please.
I'm assuming it would say "2.13A" in the display when checking software version, but mine says "2.13"...
Best Regards,
Peter

Actually, you want 2.13A for the keyboard. The A version has a larger dead band for the pitch lever, so it comes back to centre better. I can provide the file, or I can provide the ROM for $50 plus shipping...

Luis, did I already send you a list of possible sources for V. 2.13 OS for your Matrix? Computer went mad a minute ago, so I'm not sure if the message got through.
I'm checking with my friend, Bob Weigel, who operates Sounddoctorin' synth repair service. Not sure if he has it either, but it's vale la pena. ;-))
Please check Google - although I have had little luck finding one on there. Thanks!

Hola Luis,
The latest software version for the Matrix-6 and -6R rackmount is Ver. 2.13. A software update would probably fix your problem - if the controller's software was designed to operate Ver. 2.13.
Muy Buena Suerte!
