Ean, is firmware flashing reversible?
Ean, is firmware flashing reversible? Posted on: 06.01.2009 by DjMAX MONTANA I've looked around the community
s but can't find the answer. Is Firmware 1.2 available? Some people simply want the firmware to go from 1.1 to 1.2.Also, can someone revert to 1.2 firmware (I'm not talking about the special startup procedure) permanently? Say in a 6 months or a year, I want to sell my vci-100 and want to sell it as close to "OEM stock" as possible, can I flash it back to 1.2 after having done the 1.3? Any help from anyone would be appreciated, (esp. Ean) | |

DJ Strutzip 09.01.2009 | High Res is definitely great. I +1 all the LEDs being mappable and functional. Including the ones in the browser section too. |
DjMAX MONTANA 09.01.2009 | I don't believe it's being developed by Vestax. As much as I like the quality of their products, have you ever tried getting support from them? If it wasn't for DJTT, I would have gotten rid of my vci-100 when one of my jogwheels was stuck out of the boxed. I believe this is Ean and his team working hard to make a great product even better. He may have Vestax's blessing, (or he may have insight to things because of his connections w/vestax( but I don't believe they're actually doing the coding. Either way, I hope the HR is for High Res....with the PLAY light finally working! Woo hoo. and maybe firmware v1.2 included for good measure! |
Sasha Alexander 09.01.2009 | HiRes Pitch Faders!? SUHWEEET! But wait, Vestax is coding those special firmwares, right? Aren't they proactively eliminating the last reason to invest in a VCI-300 then? |
Adil Laresh 09.01.2009 | any word on when the VCI-100 Firmware Kit will be available again. I am sensing I might need an upgrade kit soon with the secret firmware pitch faders + jog wheels at 14bit resolution... |

I finally wanted to spend this weekend configuring my own midi-mapping so if there are more, bigger changes I might wait a little longer with that. Gotta bump that "Ean Thank You" thread now. |

Press both scratch/scroll buttons at once and the jogs should disable in 1.2 or above. Yes- after installing 1.3 you can always go back later its worth noting we will be releasing a new firmware soon- and its not hard to imagine what that might include |
DjMAX MONTANA 06.01.2009 | Thanks all for the replies. It seems the firmware 1.2 is hard to find. Bento, I don't have the 1.2, just the 1.3 installed and the original file I installed from (I don't know if there was a way to back mine up before I flashed to 1.3, but in my haste, I didn't bother looking.) Derek, thanks for the link. I used to spend a lot of time over there @ those community s. I don't know if 1.02 is the same as 1.2.......it might be the one with the ramp up issues. Maybe Ean can answer it. Flaekiface and JesC, Thanks for the suggestions. If I were to keep this (which I might, as I have yet to find a better midi controller) then it's cool, because I would know how to restart this under 1.2, but if I sell this (say a better program that supports midi and my non-Intel dual 2.0 Ghz comes around) I could either revert to 1.2 or sell it, but the buyer would have to be using Traktor. This narrows whom I can sell this to. Ean, is 1.02 the same as 1.2? If not can you please post?? |
Cristian Carmona 06.01.2009 | The VCI-100 is worth more with v1.3, just my 2 |
casey rascal 06.01.2009 | Why not just install 1.3 and the use the built in "switch to firmaware 1.2 feature"? |
Harley Wrase 06.01.2009 | If you need firmware 1.2 I have found one here. I didn't check it but as the filename in zip says its 1.02 |
Xavier Emanuels 06.01.2009 | As long as you have the 1.2 firmware you can allways change to that by going though the firmware update process again and install the 1.2 firmware instead of the 1.3 firmware. |
