Let me know how it goes and I'll follow suit. In a couple of months.

I'm not typically an early adopter of updates/upgrades... but I'm gonna take a chance on this one... after the next couple of shows that BE's are bringing USB sticks for.

A BE that saved a recent show off our M7 (v3.03) tried his save on another vendor's desk and the file showed up grayed-out, with a "?" mark.  He called me to ask about that (and a panic situation, he was just warming me up).  It seems the vendor desk was either version 1.7 or 2.03. and wouldn't load the higher-version file.  He had to start from scratch and his normal 30 min sound check took an hour and a half.  Okay, he's got a show.

The panic was caused by the SE, who offered to save the scene but hit the "recall" button in error.  I guess the recall confirmation wasn't activated in the user profile, because faders moved and setting were changed.  Ouch.  Fortunately, nobody had poked any more scene save/recall buttons because I was able to have him find the "recall undo" function and he got his scene back.  After flogging and flailing the SE, all was good.

Anyone who loads 3.5... I'd love to hear your comments... and I'm keeping a USB stick with v.2 and v.3.03 firmware gaffed to the back of the console.

Have fun, happy holidays!

I'll probably be updating the second week of January. We've got two days of tech rehearsal so it seems like a good opportunity to bug hunt.

[Christian Güssmer]

if someone really needs to convert a newer version scene to an older (that is a scene saved on V3.02 to desk version V2 or whatever) give my converter a try: http://www.trbtr.de/pmw/pmwiki.php/OpenMix/OpenMixTools

it will not convert the whole session with all settings, but save the time to dial in all the channels again.

(still need to implement V3.5 in the next days)

We're mostly a rental business so I upgrade when upgrades come out (at least for Yamaha and a couple others).  I did our M7CL's with 3.5 yesterday and it went fine.  It's definitely a big upgrade, requiring a memory initialization when done.  And there was one point when "starting system..." sat there flashing long enough to make me uncomfortable (maybe a minute) before it continued on.

Make sure you save a show file before doing this (or any) upgrade.

Installed it yesterday.  The new features are great, definitely worth the .5 name in the upgrade.

I really like the alt function UDK which makes it easier to turn on dynamics, HPF and mix sends, as well as allowing pre-post changes for mixes and attenuator access.

Good news, I'll be using 3.5 starting Sat.

I updated yesterday and ran through two days of rehearsal with no issues. I didn't have time to mess around with the alternate encoder functions, but hopefully tomorrow will lend me some time to do that.

[John H. O'Brien]

I upgraded at the start of our tour and haven't had any issues with it at all. I was upgrading from 1.7 I believe. It wasn't a huge amount of changes from what I can tell, but the ones that made it do make a difference.

I finally updated a console to 3.5.  No issues to report.  Backed up before and loaded back just fine.  

Made a quick vid of the iPad StageMix app.  It was super easy to configure and connect.
