Aeros firmware 2.11.1

I just ran the update 3 more times. Then it worked. Something is a bit wonky…but I guess if it fails to install…keep trying.

This seems to be a connection and server issue. We are adding more status states to the WiFi connection section so we can see what’s going on in future updates.

I’ve had no problem whatsoever updating via WiFi with my unit. It seems to be smooth for me!

I was just curious if free form mode was still on track to be released for the next update. Thanks for keeping us updated, David!

Cool. I can’t wait for freeform :slight_smile: Btw, update is great.

Looking forward to the freeform update.

Any idea on then the song length limit will be extended or removed?

Not sure if you know this yet or not, but it seems you can only change the name of a file before you record anything… Once something is recorded, the option to edit the name is gone…

Firmware 2.11.1 is another step forward to unlocking this pedals full potential. Keep them coming. So far the only bug to show up for me is the song name edit function. It allows a change to the count in but not the name. The information box ( question mark) is also missing from the ‘name’ line of the edit screen.

@Lance @ablogic when the update failed, did it fail during the download process or during the update process? We trying to confirm whether it was a server issue or a software code issue.

@booneroo loop length limit will be worked on within the next 1-2 months. We want to perfect freeform and the SD card storage features first.

@johngale77 @Scamper we removed the edit song name function in version 2.10 because it was causing a bug that would delete all the recordings (pretty bad!). We’ll add this feature back in when we fix this bug (should be done when we finish the SD card storage system, which we are currently working on).

The download completed. Then, the Aeros re-booted and began the update process. It immediately failed with the error. This leads me to believe that the problem is not the download but instead is the update.

@DavidPackouz It downloaded fine (and quickly as previous firmware, like less than 10s on my cable line). It failed after restrating during the update process.

I tried 5 times, and it failed 5 times at the beginning of the update process (I suppose the firmware validation check).

Went on the SD card update it updated successfully.

Thanks for the improvements on scrolling and song selection by foot control. It really helps to be able to control the Aeros without touching the screen. Over time I’m hoping pretty much everything can be done via foot.

Can we get a foot driven way to to go back/cancel out of song selection?

Perhaps we repurpose one of the up/down buttons as a go back/cancel button. With the scroll wheel, I’m fine with no up/down (or just down, but that’s a bit weird)

@Quad our goal is to make as much of the Aeros functionality hands free. It’s always a debate about what is the best use of the button…

One way you can currently exit the song screen now is to select the currently selected song, that will bring you back to the loop studio.

@ablogic @Lance thank you for reporting this. We’re investigating what could be causing it. It’s odd because the vast majority of people have no problem with the wireless update, but a few do. Those are the hardest bugs to figure out. But we’re on it.

Glad to hear the freeform feature is still on the charts. Jay had indicated it would make it into the last update. Will it now just be a matter of days, or rather weeks?

Just as a suggestion… what about having access to the song selection screen by holding up two switches (“play/stop all”+“select part”), then having the two other switches to enter the song and the other to exit the song selection screen (since the scrolling through song is assign to the wheel already)?

@Offbeat here is the beta version: Aeros firmware 2.12.2 -- BETA Freeform

@sharifkerbage I like that idea! We can make the Play/Stop All button exit the Songs screen. That way we can keep the up and down single tap buttons.

Thanks, David. Since it’s only a beta at this stage, I‘ll wait till it appears for standard WiFi installation.

This update is a huge step up. Thanks!

I’m really keen for the SD card to be available for song storage. I suspect that I only have space in internal memory for another number or two.

@Euan we hope to have the SD card storage feature complete either in the next update or the one after that. We’re aiming to release it before Christmas.

Cool
