  • Dramatically increased delay memory

Regarding device compability and installment of the update, Haken say:

"This update is for Haken Audio devices with 2x, 6x, and 8x EaganMatrix sound engines. All ContinuuMinis, all EaganMatrix modules, and Continuums with 2x, 6x, or 8x engines are compatible with this update. This update is not for Osmose; that release will be coordinated by ExpressiveE in the future (and will include exciting additions by ExpressiveE).

The update is user-installable. Assuming your Haken Device currently has firmware version 10.09 or later, this update procedure should take about 20 minutes. If you do require assistance Haken Audio is providing free Zoom sessions for support. Please refer to the end of the 10.40 Firmware Update Procedure document for a schedule of the Zoom sessions. We suggest starting your update 1/2 hour before a Zoom session, that way we are available if you run into complications."
