System Firmware v.2.1 is here!
We are very excited to announce this significant firmware update for all current and future m908 users. This is a major overhaul in the operation and performance capabilities of the m908.
Web Control
The all-new embedded web control and setup platform allows you to control all monitoring features, and edit, load and store all system parameters. The interface works on any desktop or device browser that is connected to the same LAN as the m908.
Using this platform is as simple as entering the IP address of your m908 into a browser. The m908 will automatically load the control platform and work from there. There is nothing to download or install and it is completely agnostic to the desktop or device OS. This allows complete control and editing of all m908 system parameters from your screen without having to navigate the m908 RCU setup menus. This significantly increases the simplicity and efficiency of operating the m908!
-
The main monitor control screen is shown above. All monitoring features are here, laid out in a simple, graphical work environment. Any changes made by the web control software are instantly synchronized with the m908 RCU. -
The system setup tabs in the left hand column provide easy navigation access to every m908 configuration setting, with simple sliders, menus, buttons and text fields for making system setup and calibration changes. -
Creating and editing room correction EQ settings is now as simple as entering values on the screen. Any individual EQ band can be copied and pasted or an entire channel of multiple EQs can be copied and pasted. -
Complex solo / mute speaker groupings can be made by simply selecting a specific solo / mute switch and adding or subtracting individual speakers to create the grouping.
Improved EQ Capability
Firmware v.2.1 provides a significant increase in the amount of total available EQ bands. Since the m908’s original release, one thing has become clear: Dolby ATMOS Room certification can require very large amounts of room correction EQ. With this release, the m908 can now run 12 bands of EQ per channel on all 24 outputs, at any sample rate (288 bands available).
With the new control and setup software, EQ settings can be copy / pasted between individual speakers or speaker systems. Also, entire room EQ settings can now be imported and exported directly to the m908 imported via .csv files.
This firmware, including a rigorous BETA program, has been in development for almost an entire year. With this official release, the m908 levels up in a major way. Please visit our support page here to download this update.
