MONO2K 1.2 for the M-VAVE FM-1: a new screen, and the arp's HOLD.

The screen

  • One grid, crisp: every page on the same bands and cells, 1 px rules, nothing crossing a line; long machine names never run into the picture.
  • Bolder type in MONO2K's own letters, two-pixel strokes, bigger names and values.
  • Header and footer as black bars: the pattern, the modes, tempo and transport on top; the bars, track ▸ machine ▸ page and the page count below.
  • The LFO pages show all three LFOs, live, the one you edit highlighted.
  • A new splash: MONO2K in dithered 3D, the engines' shapes rolling through it, folding into the wordmark. Any key skips it.
  • Small motion: a knob's bar eases to its value, a step pops when toggled.

The arp's HOLD

  • Tap ARP twice and the arp keeps playing after you let go; a chord played after your hands leave the keys replaces it. Twice again stops it. HOLD shows in the header, and the ARP LED pulses.
  • A sustain pedal (MIDI CC 64 on the track's channel) holds it too.

Your patterns are untouched: this update changes the screen and adds the hold; the sound is the same as 1.1's.

  • File: mono2k-1.2.fwsc, identity FM-1_980, SHA-256 9bd35ae25c09db90e739167e7123c67db8d6c4d3465fd7b1cf5487f59cdf1b37 (the same file as the installer's).
  • Install: from the FM-1 Firmware Hub or the installer page, over USB in Chrome or Edge. Coming from 1.x, your patterns stay.
  • Leave it: install any other firmware as usual; MONO2K starts its update loader (Felucca's). Holding OCT− while switching on always reaches the updater.

The full list is in the manual's change log. Licence GPL-3.0-only; the update protocol and platform are Felucca's and CS-1's (Hügelton Instruments), GPL-3.0. Not affiliated with M-VAVE or Elektron.
