Fantom Audio Expansion Question?

23 Jan 2006, 17:21

I've recently purchased an FX6 and it came pre-installed with FW Ver 2.01 and the Audio Expansion. If I update to the latest FW Ver 2.02 will this affect the audio expansion? I thought I'd better check with you guys, sorry if this has been covered on a previous thread, but I did a search and couldn't see the answer. Is the upgrade worth it, or should I just stick with 2.01? Thanks.

You always want to get the latest OS as far as I'm concerned. It won't mess with your current expansion, though it will erase any data so save everything before upgrading. The upgrade just fixes some bugs, you might not notice much of a differance, but it is a good idea.

What data does it erase? I've done two upgrades now (2.01 and 2.02) and I haven't lost any of my USER data or system settings.

Thanks for the advice, I did an update to 2.02 and at least I know I'm running the latest F/W now. I did a USB update and I must say it was very painless indeed. Thanks again for your help.
