Update Firmware and Manage Preset and WAV Files
Toolbox owners can update the module's firmware to get the latest features and other updates. Toolbox is not cross
compatible with the Series 1 Modules, bitbox, fxbox and synthbox. The firmware can be updated with the factory
image, which includes the original presets, or just the firmware itself. You can also choose individual presets or WAV
files to copy over to your microSD Card.
Install New Firm ware
Here are the steps required:
1.
Download the toolbox firmware onto your computer. You can find the latest firmware image in the Firmware
Downloads sub-forums at https://forum.1010music.com. NOTE: You must be a registered member of the
forum in order to access the firmware download sub-forums.
2.
Unpack the zip file. Some browsers do this automatically for you.
3.
If you want to replace the Presets with the factory image, copy the full contents of the zip file onto a
microSD card. If you do not want to overwrite your presets, copy only the SERIES2.BIN file to the microSD
card. Place the microSD card in your toolbox.
4.
While powering up the unit, hold the Home and Info buttons. When you see the message about upgrading
the firmware, you can let go.
5.
When the upgrade finishes in about 15 seconds, the unit will restart with the new software.
NOTE:
You must register at forum.1010music.com in order to download firmware.

The microSD card must be formatted with FAT32 or MS- DOS (FAT). The exFAT format will not work.

Backup and Restore Your Presets
Toolbox stores presets on the microSD card with file names with a .tlb extension. It is always a good idea to keep a
backup of your work. You can backup the preset files that are stored on the microSD card by following these simple
steps:
1.
Remove the microSD card from your module and insert into your computer. You may need to use a
microSD adapter.
2.
Copy the files from the microSD card onto your computer.
To restore one or more preset files from a backup, simply copy the preset file from the backup copy onto the
microSD card. You may rename the files.
M anage W AV files and Preset files
In addition to the presets, toolbox stores the CV recordings on the microSD card. These recordings have the .WAV
extension. You can use the microSD card on your computer to manage the WAV files and Preset files. You can
rename the files, add new files to the microSD card, or rearrange WAV files into folders. Please keep in mind
however, that if you move or rename a WAV file that is used in a Preset, that Preset will no longer be able to find that
WAV file. Toolbox will still allow you to open the Preset, but the CPLY cells that use that WAV file will not playback
properly until the WAV file is reloaded from its new name or location.
It's also important to note that Preset files must be stored in the root folder of the microSD card or else Toolbox will
not find them. WAV files and MIDI files can be in folders.
To rename or move WAV or Preset files, place the microSD card into your computer. You may need to use an SD
card adapter for this. Then use the standard file management tools on your computer to make the desired changes.
When you are done, safely eject the microSD card from your computer, and then reinsert it into the toolbox with the
notched edge away from the screen. The new and renamed files will now be available.
