MixPre Firmware v3.00

  • New
    • For all models:
      • USB control from the Korg NanoKontrol Studio, Korg NanoKontrol2, Akai MidiMix, and Novation
      • Launch Control XL USB control surfaces. Other USB control surfaces are not supported.
      • Includes support for fader, trim, pan, low cut, reverb, solo, mute, track arm, monitor, transport control, LR output level, and user-programmable shortcut buttons.
      • Note: available features depend on the control surface being used and whether Audio or Music projects are enabled. For more information, see the USB Controller chapter in your MixPre User Guide.
    • For MixPre-3, -6, and -10T only:
      • Pre-roll: saves up to 10 seconds of audio before the “record” button is pressed. Select up to 10 seconds of pre-roll on the MixPre-10T and 5 seconds of pre-roll on the MixPre-3 & -6. Pre-roll time is reduced at 96 kHz and higher sampling rates.
    • For MixPre-3 and 3M only:
      • Phase invert option now available for the MixPre-3. Phase invert is already available for all other MixPre models.
    • For MixPre-6 and -10T only:
      • Ambisonics and binaural recording/monitoring (-6 and -10T Audio projects only). Requires installation of the Ambisonics Plugin available at the Sound Devices Plugin Store. See [Ambisonics user guide link]
    • For all M models and Music projects on models with Musician Plugin:
      • Bluetooth LE wireless remote control using the Android or iOS Wingman app. Includes 12-track monitoring, mix metering, transport control, time counter, track naming and arming.
      • Support for the new Windows ASIO driver, v2.9.92.1. This enables a MixPre running a Music project to be used as a multichannel USB audio interface with Windows computers. This ASIO driver is required when using the MixPre-3M, -6M, or -10M or when running Music projects in the MixPre-3, -6, or -10T.
