OG Synth 1.1.0 for the M-VAVE FM-1. The same firmware as on https://ogsynth.cc, kept here in case the site is ever down.

What's new

  • SEQ > KEY (after RECORD): the pattern's key and scale, all optional and off to begin with. SNAP keeps keys and MIDI notes in the scale, NOTES shows the scale's rows lighter.
  • CHORD: KEY 3 and KEY 7 play the triad or seventh of the pattern's key on every key. K2 is VOICING: CLOSE, OPEN, INV 1, INV 2.
  • GLO > DISPLAY > CHORD NAME: the chord you play, on the home screen (off by default).
  • RECORD (hold REC): K1 BPM, K2 METRONOME, K3 COUNT IN with its length, K4 QUANTIZE. The keys there are TAP TEMPO.
  • Hold SEL while turning PRESETS: the new sound keeps the effect chain you have.
  • OCTAVER: steady -1 and -2 octaves on held notes (thick sounds glitched before; thanks for the GitHub report).
  • VEL > RATE in the MORE of the LFO page (VCO, SVF, DCO, ALPHA, 8BIT, LPG, PHYS, FORMANT): harder notes, faster LFO.
  • MINI: a TUNE page (DETUNE and oscillators 2 to 4), RETRIG EVERY KEY / NEW NOTE in VOICE MORE, and the ladder filter is named LADDER 24.
  • GLO > MIDI: OTHER TRACKS (unselected MULTI tracks can get bend, wheel and pressure from their channel) and CC IN (CC 21 to 24 = K1 to K4 of the page). Both off by default.
  • GLO > PLAY > TUNE KNOB SEMITONES: tuning in cents moves smoothly up to a semitone, then in semitones.
  • GLO > SYSTEM > UPDATE MODE: the chip's update mode without holding REC at power-on.
  • EQ: no more oscilloscope flicker on the FX page.

Files

  • OG-Synth-1.1.0-offline.zip: the install page from ogsynth.cc, running from your own computer. Unzip, then open START-Windows.bat or START-Mac.command (needs Python 3), or run python3 -m http.server 8471 in the folder and open http://localhost:8471/install/1.1.0/ in Chrome, Edge or Opera.
  • ogs-1.1.0.fwsc: the firmware package.
  • SHA256SUMS.txt

If something goes wrong

  • Back to stock: the install page (online or offline) has "Back to the stock firmware", with M-VAVE's FM-1.fwsc from https://www.m-vave.com/download. M-VAVE's own updater, M-UPGRADE, works too.
  • FM-1 won't start: if you installed with the m-bootloader option, hold PLAY while switching on for its recovery menu (REC: update mode). Without it, a Mac can put the stock firmware back with the felucca-bsp tools: https://github.com/hugelton/felucca-bsp/tree/main/tools
  • Source code (MPL-2.0 part) of this version: tag v1.1.0 of this repository.
