    v108b: The "O" Beta Pre-release

    mzero released this 2021-06-28 23:31:30 +02:00 | 0 commits to dev108 since this release

    This is a beta release of the upcoming v108.

    "O" Pin Support

    You can now use the "O" pin to one of several possible uses:

    • DIN start/stop behavior
    • Trigger based start/stop behavior
    • Re-align the clock to quarter, half, or whole notes, or to measure or sequence boundries
    • Advance to next memory

    Bug Fixes:

    • sometimes a C clock would be lost, causing the Buddy to skip and become off, this was broken in v106 and v107b
    • sync to ¼ and DIN 48 didn't work in v107b

    To load this release on a unit

    1. Make sure Pulsar Buddy is powered normally via its 12V jack... it won't power from USB.Connect
    2. Connect to your computer via USB.
    3. Press the reset button on the Pulsar Buddy twice, quickly. This button is on the display board, in the bottom right, and labeled "Reset". Because it is under the acrylic window, you'll need to use something to get at it. Don't use something metal - I use a guitar pick.
    4. In a few seconds, a USB disk called FEATHERBOOT will mount on your computer.
    5. Simply drag the pulsar-buddy-v108b.uf2 file onto that drive. It will copy over, and the disk will automatically disconnect. Your computer will probably alert you about this, just close the alert and ignore it.
    6. Done! In a second or so the Pulsar Buddy will reboot and you'll be upgraded.
