Lets get you updated!!!
This page will walk you through how to update your device!
Do I need to update my firmware?
You can plug in your device via USB (without going into update mode) and where it says "Choose MIDI Device" below in the "Firmware Update Tool" it will say "Technician ??.??".
If your device doesn't show a number after "Technician" or if its number is lower then the latest firmware then you should update!
Do I need to update my Bootloader?
To check if you need to update your bootloader put your device into "Firmware update mode" by unplugging power, holding the "Control" toggle and then plugging in the power. Your device should now appear under "Chose MIDI Device" below.
If the name isn't "TechFirmware Updater 02.10" then you need to update!
If your device doesn't say a number like "02.00" in the name then you have V1 of the bootloader installed and you need to go HERE TO UPDATE
If it does say "TechFirmware Updater 02.00" then you need to go
HERE TO UPDATE
and if it says "TechFirmware Updater 02.10" then you can use the update tool below to update your firmware.
How do i update my Technician?
With the power unplugged hold the "Control" toggle and then plug in the power. The "Control" toggle will turn green and you are now in "Update Mode"!!!
Connect the usb cable directly to the computer and directly to the Technician.
Choose "Tech firmware updater" from the "Choose MIDI Device" drop down.
select "Load File" and choose the firmware you want to use for the update.
Press "Send" and the pedal should now update! The pedal should start into normal operation automatically.
if you are stuck on green leds and the website is done update contact us.
What if my update fails?
You can follow the update steps again to attempt it again.
If the problem persists you can use the "contact us" section for further troubleshooting.

Firmware Update Tool 2.0
Update for The Technician
(BETA)Technician Firmware 0200
BETA means the firmware is released for testing to find bugs and errors.
Technician 2.0 – Patch Notes
V2.0.0 – Major Firmware Update
GENERAL
– Improved “MIDI CLOCK” to prevent MIDI data from locking up/overwhelming the Technician.
– Improved MIDI stability
– Fixed “Beta” bug that prevented default preset from loading correctly.
– General optimizations
LOOPER
– MIDI “Record”, “Restart”, “continue/play”, “stop/pause” commands added to control the looper via MIDI
DELAY
– Updated “Granular Size” so they can be fixed or randomized.
– Removed “Clock Depth” and “Clock Rate” from “Granular” and replaced it with “Grain Direction” and “Grain Speed”. You can now choose to randomize or pick fixed values for the behavior of the grains.
– Rebuilt “Reverse” algorithm
– General optimizations
REVERB
– Fixed bug where having modulation on the reverb with short pre-delay could cause “Clicks” to happen.
– General optimizations
V1.7.0
-General
-“Synced” and “Un-Synced” modes have now been changed to “Stereo” and “Dual Mono”.
-“Stereo” mode will now have 25% of the output of the opposite sides wet signal mixed into its final output to give a better stereo image.
"Dual Mono" will function the same as it did before.

General tweaks and functional improvements.improved MIDI from 105FilterFilter “Frequency” max range adjusted to prevent any freq cut at max. When “Frequency” is set to “Max” it now bypasses the filter DSP code DelayChanges between presets now has clean jumps between delay times. Previously if you had two presets with different delay times when you changed presets it would oscillate the time change like turning the knob. This now instantly jumps the delay without any added oscillation.
