Firmware Updates
Page last modification: Nov 6th, 2023
Occasionally there may be a Firmware Update to improve the Reflex LiveLoop
user interface or add features.
Please bookmark this page for future reference. Any updates will be posted on
Muff Wiggler!
*Note: If the "Type" is not a Core update, then will be a single step using
Arduino IDE
If the "Type"
is a Core update, then a second step of holding REC + PLAY when LEDs flashing is
required
-if you
missed the LED's flashing to do core update, it will indicate "to-do" again on
next power-up.
*Note2: You will need to install the CH340 driver for the Reflex to show as a Serial Port. See attached .pdf in zip file
