664 Firmware v4.60

  • New
    • Monophonic Broadcast WAV file support, up to 10-track to two cards, three second pre-roll maximum.
    • LCD Daylight Display Mode - a daylight-specific color scheme for improved readability in sunlight.
    • New solid bar metering option for further improved readability in direct sunlight.
    • Additional Front Panel button shortcuts for:
      • LCD Daylight Display Mode (HP + SELECT encoders).
      • Phrase list (HP + RTN B/C) for fast entry of notes.
      • Activating the alternating Tone mode (SELECT + TONE). If Tone Mode is set to Continuous in the menu, then (SELECT + TONE) activates L-Ident tone.
    • Track Names in Meters options (without color gradient/ramp). Selectable for either right-side or left side display.
    • When formatted in the 664, SD cards 64 GB and larger are now automatically formatted as ExFAT (in accordance with the SD Association's recommendation). All CF cards and lower capacity SD cards remain FAT32.
    • Headphone Volume or Headphone Preset default option. Sets the HP encoder to operate as headphone level or to select HP presets when rotated. Pressing the Headphone encoder momentarily activates the alternative function.
    • Note: If a card not optimized for multi-channel monophonic file recording is used or if the monophonic 10 track limit is exceeded, a warning message is displayed on the LCD when starting a recording. Polyphonic mode or reducing track count is recommended
  • Changed
    • Track and Scene names - maximum number of entries increased to 70. If exceeded, a pop-up message appears.
    • Editing a track name from the channel screen now edits the current track name instead of generating a new name. This reduces the likelihood of exceeding the number of allowable (70) track names.
  • Fixed
    • Rare issue where record beeps would be replaced by noise, resulting in corrupted recording.
    • Issue where Return monitoring would change among mono, stereo, or MS depending on the Headphone selection. Now Return L goes to Headphone-Left and Return R goes to Headphone-Right.
    • Current take's track name edits were not applied to the next take when tracks are disarmed.
    • File renaming bug fixes.
    • Numerous memory card performance improvements.
    • Additional bug fixes and system improvements.
