The firmware is the internal software of the a-pipes.
To know the current version, just connect it to the remote software.
To update the firmware, the instrument must be returned.
Major changes between versions:
V1.3 New sound at 44100Hz.
V1.4 Fixed random start.
V1.7 Bluetooth autostart; adjustable drone volume.
V2.3 Radio (a-box).
V2.11 Removal of the battery alarm (useless, false and untimely).
V2.12 Adjustable pitch.
V2.14 No more self-calibration after the 5th holes covering (to prevent the instrument from jamming when handled), optional Vibrato.
V2.15 Permanent accidentals for C and F (equivalent of hole taping).
V2.17 GHB default setting at 448Hz, LowA played on key change instead of E.
V2.18 EEPROM reset possible from the remote software + EEPROM display at boot.
V2.20 Clean cut off possible.
V2.21 Reliability of radio exchanges.
V2.22 Removal of instabilities on HighG found on some instruments.
V2.23 Softening the transition between notes: the new note increases in volume procedurally during the first millisecond.
Impactful magic fingerings are now only accessible in protected mode (accessible itself via a new magic fingering).
Improved hole sensitivity.
