Super Ultimate Firmware Update 16/10/2007 Click Here

In this update we have not just included more support for what we call "confused midi file structure", relates to the pause function!

Directory Support! You can now create midi music folders! Each folder can store up to 255 files and the number of files is only limited by the size of your memory card! So you can now store and play thousands on one one card!

Create folders as normal (On your card or on you PC then copy to card).
To navigate the folders use the up or down button and to enter a folder press the right button.
.. <DIR> will be displayed showing you are now in the directory.
Use the Up or Down Button to scroll through your midi files, then press play etc.

To exit a folder and take you back to the root, press the left button after you have stopped playing the file.

We have also remapped some buttons and relegated Transpose to shift function (Two button operation required) In its place you now have a single button skip feature while playing by just pressing Up or Down. Holding either button will fast skip!

Midi file names over 24 characters long now scroll in on the LCD and will display up to 64 characters!

REC is now a Shift button that you will hold down whilst pressing other buttons to do the following:

REC+UP or DOWN=Transpose up or Down
REC+RIGHT=Toggle Lyrics

Midi Monitor has been removed in this version to allow the other features and has been replaced with a midi activity indicator..

We also have another upgrade that includes midi monitor and a few more extras, but this requires a chip upgrade!
Return to base Service upgrade is available at an extra cost. Details will be published soon showing other features.
