Not tried it yet.

Updating mine. Will post info ASAP.

1. Sine wave graphics are back.

2. Can't hear any chorusing on init patch when controlling Blofeld from MIDI IN.

3. Cutoff doesn't seem steppy at all.

Post

Concerned about MIDI clock sync.

Link to latest version gives me this:
"The requested URL /downloads/Blofeld Downloads/System/BlofeldV121.zip was not found on this server."

f**king amateur hour over there, still a 404 Not Found for the firmware update instructions too...

Post

Hm, I could download it just fine 30 mins ago...

4. MIDI clock sync seems to be just fine over MIDI IN.

Just went back to try again, now the link isn't even showing, only the keyboard firmware 1.3

After all the problems yesterday, i'm in no hurry now, gonna wait for the dust to settle.

Surely they have to pull the firmware from their site ASAP?

Glad they sorted it so quickly, although I've not tested 1.21 yet as the link is down. I guess it will be back up soon.

I think I will suggest to Waldorf to make all older OS versions available on their Downloads page for Blofeld. I mean, it only makes sense...

Yep, but the bizarre thing is that there was a new one just after lunchtime. Version 1.21. Complete with bright red NEW sign on it. And now it's gone.

Very odd.

Thanks EvilDragon. 8)

Good to hear about 1.21 fixing the problems.

I reckon someone at Waldorf made a mistake and released the 1.18 closed beta version as 1.20 by accident, as the issues appear to be identical.

There is no way someone fixed all the issues in 1.20 in the last 24 hours.

Thanks ED. Going to try it now.

Thanks for that Evil Dragon.
Though now I'm wondering if they purposely pulled it for some reason....
