Updating and Swapping Firmware, Audio Files and Presets
Fxbox is part of the Series 1 group of modules from 1010music. All Series 1 modules use the same hardware and can be
reprogrammed to run the firmware from any Series 1 module, which currently includes fxbox, bitbox and synthbox.
This process can also be used to update the firmware on fxbox to get bug fixes and new features. 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 to copy over to your microSD Card.
Switch to a New M icroSD Card W hile Operating Fxbox
You can switch to a different microSD card while operating fxbox. Simply remove the current card and insert the new one,
then use the Preset menu to load a preset from the new card.
Backup Your Preset Files
Before you re-use a microSD to update or swap firmware, backup the files that are stored on the microSD card:
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.
Install New Firm ware
Here are the steps required:
1.
Download the desired firmware onto your computer. You can choose to download either fxbox, synthbox or
bitbox firmware, but only one set of firmware can run at a time. You can find the latest firmware images on our
forum at
https://forum.1010music.com
order to access the download files. Forum registration is free.
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 MATRIX.BIN file to the microSD card.
4.
Place the microSD card in your module.
5.
While powering up the unit, hold the Home and Info buttons. When you see the message about upgrading the
firmware, you can let go.
6.
When the upgrade finishes in about 15 seconds, the unit will restart with the new software.
Reset fxbox Presets to Factory Settings
If you want to reset one or more of the fxbox Presets to the original factory settings, you can copy individual preset files
onto your microSD card.
1.
Download the fxbox firmware onto your computer. You can find the latest firmware images on
under Support.
2.
Unpack the zip file. Some browsers do this automatically for you.
3.
Find the .fxb file in the unpacked folder that has the same name as the preset you want to restore, for example
02BadTapeEcho.fxb. Copy the .fxb file onto the microSD card to replace the file on the card.
4.
Insert the microSD card into the fxbox.
5.
Push the HOME button to return to the Main screen if needed.
6.
Touch the preset name at the top of the grid (or the space above it) to display the Presets screen.
7.
Select any preset and touch the Load button to get fxbox to load the updated presets.
