Network
Before turning the Modal 008R on, be sure to connect it to your local router via ethernet
cable: as soon as you turn the synth on, the OS will automatically establish an internet
connection. If everything goes fine, you should be able to go to the settings page, press
number ‘2’ on the keypad to access the Network screen, and see this:
The IP Mode area displays ‘DHCP’ and your 008R should have an automatically assigned IP
Address: a valid local IP address has the 192.168.1.xx format.
Update
The update procedure of the Modal 008R operating system is very easy. To enter the Update
section from the settings page, just press number ‘1’ on the keypad: the main area in the
centre of the screen will show the current OS version.
Update:
If you want to update your system, just press number ‘1’ again: the Modal 008R will
now check for available updates .
If there is no new software available, the screen will go back to the patch loading page. If
there is a new version of the software, it will ask if you want to download it from our servers
and update the system.
Please note that the update procedure may take from 3 to 10 minutes (depending on the size
of the update): during this time, the screen will display a progress bar and the current step of
the update.
•
DO NOT TURN THE SYNTH OFF NOW! - You may cause serious damage to the internal
structure of the OS and lose your data.
•
When updating the voices 008R produces a loud noise so we recommend turning the
volume to minimum during an update.
After a successful update, the synth will automatically reboot and get back to the previously
selected preset.
Redo:
if for any reason (see Troubleshooting section) you need to re-install the latest software
OS, press number ‘2’ on the keypad. The 008R will now run the update procedure again and
install the same software version.
