OG Synth 1.2.1 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

  • SHIMMER no longer adds a DC offset: it sounds clean and full at every setting (with DECAY and SHIMMER all the way up it used to go silent).
  • DISTORTION RECT no longer thumps on every note, and FUZZ, FOLD and TUBE lose their small offset too. SOFT and HARD sound exactly as before.
  • The sequencer stays locked to incoming MIDI clock (GLO > MIDI > CLOCK IN AUTO) instead of slowly running ahead, and a Start from your DAW begins the pattern on the first clock tick.

Files

  • OG-Synth-1.2.1-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/1.2.1/ in Chrome, Edge or Opera.
  • ogs-1.2.1.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, and so does M-Flasher: https://ogsynth.cc/manual#stuck
  • 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 v1.2.1 of this repository.
