Updates
Download the update zip file, unzip, and follow the details on how to update your SpazeDrum, in the SpazeDrum user manual.
If you have not updated your SpazeDrum for some time, it is only nescessary to update it with the latest update.
PLEASE REMEMBER TO USE A FAT32 FORMATTED USB DRIVE, NOT LARGER THAN 32 GB, AND PLEASE DO NOT RENAME THE FILES!
IMPORTANT:
I RECOMMEND USING A NEWER 16 OR 32 GB FAT32 FORMATTED USB STICK, THAT ARE A BRAND LIKE KINGSTON OR SANDISK, FOR THE UPDATING. TRY TO IMPORT A SAMPLING FROM THIS DRIVE, BEFORE YOU PERFORM THE UPDATE, TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING WORKS AS INTENDED.
UPDATES HAS BEEN TESTED, USING A WINDOWS 10 PC. OTHER OPERATING SYSTEMS ARE NOT SUPPORTED.
PLEASE FIND A LIST OF TESTED USB STICKS
Update 7.88
Works with all models of SpazeDrum.
-Sequencer restart function added, which will make all tracks reset to their start step.
Bug Fix:
-The KTR Sequencer tracks would not work on the digital voices. Now they will.
By downloading this update, I hereby declare, that I understand, that if I do not use the recommended 16GB or 32 GB USBstick, from the list of tested USB sticks (please see in top of this site), for updating my instrument, and if I have not tested this by importing a sampling first, my instrument might be malfunctioning afterwards. So please follow the recommendations on the top of this site.
Update 7.86
Works with all models of SpazeDrum.
-The Random Generators are now also trigged on External MIDI parts, so that it is possible to modulate note number, velocity, delay etc. on external MIDI device tracks.
-When an External MIDI note track is muted, the 4 knob controller CC tracks associated with this track are now also muted.
Bug fix:
-When a Draw wave LFO were in one-time mode, it would end at the first value, instead of the last. This has now been fixed.

Update 7.83
Works with all models of SpazeDrum.
Some bug fixes:
-Sample Chop: When generating a fixed number of chops, it would add an extra chop point at the end point. This has now been fixed.
-Graphical Sample Edit: If the last chop point was deleted, it would show a wrong portion of the sampling on the screen. This has now been fixed.
-Graphical Sample Edit: If the sample start point was moved, to add a chop point, and the chop points afterwards were saved, it would also save the sample start point, and delete the portion of the sampling before the start point. Now sample start/end and chop points are saved separately.
-Graphical Sample Edit: When moving the end point or a chop point, the graphics would malfunction. This has now been fixed.
Update 7.78
Works with all models of SpazeDrum.

-Sample Pitch V2 Effect has been added –GlitchShifter 3 has been removed.

Version 7.04
-A Keyboard Select mode has been added, that will make a connected MIDI keyboard play the entire range of the selected part, without you having to set up zones.
-LFO’s waveforms curve can now be set from logarithmic to exponential.
-Modulation Envelopes can now loop the ADS segment.

-MIDI Program changes can now be transmitted.
Bug Fixes:
-Portamento did not work properly on Digital voices. Now it does.
-If an insert effect were set to certain filter types, and then you switched to the Distortion effect, SpazeDrum would crash. This has now been fixed.

-When VCA output select is set to “EFX”, the Part is now no longer sent to the analog outputs.
-When doubling a Knob Track, this could make the knob track go up to 128 steps, even though each Knob Track is maximum 64 steps long. This has now been fixed.

-Oscillator D can now be sent to the analog oscillators.
-Ring modulated noise has been added as a noise source on Analog Percussion and Analog Clap.
-4 new G-RAY soft modes have been added.
Bug fixes:
-If no samplings were imported in the SpazeDrum FLASH memory, and the oscillator pages were accessed, it would start scanning for samples, which would affect the sequencer and envelopes timing. This has now been fixed.
-If a part was set up to External MIDI mode, and this part was controlled from an external MIDI device, notes would hang, if more than one note were played at a time. This has now been fixed.
-The sequencer position was not present on the VCF pages. Now it is.
-The PitchShaper effect Oct parameter would show wrong values (the effect did though work as intended). This has now been fixed.

-Analog group VU-meters has been added in the bottom of pages, that has no waveform view.
Bug fixes:

-Sequencer realtime recording did not record notes received via MIDI IN. This has now been fixed.
-The note track sub position track did not work on morph layer B. This has now been fixed.
-If any note track sub position steps were set to any other value than zero, the “adjust all sequencer steps” function would not work. This has now been fixed.
-When a part layer A+B was copied/pasted, only layer A was copied/pasted. Now both layers are.
-Note Randomizer quick jump would jump to the note track position sub track. Now it will jump to the Note Randomizer.
-If you switched to the next preset, and then switched back to the current preset, before the preset change happened, while the sequencer was running, it would play back the wrong preset. This has now been fixed.
Version3.30
Bug Fixes:
-If a sequencer note track resolution was set to 1/24 or higher, and the track had some empty steps, and then some active steps, the second active step would not play back. This has now been fixed.
-If the Variator effect was selected, either as insert or output effect, it would, at certain effect settings, sometimes cause SpazeDrum to crash, and write "HARDFAULT" in the display. This might also have applied to other effects. This has now been fixed.
-It was not possible to select sample chop points in Graphical Sample Edit. This is now possible, using the step buttons and the Bar Select. User manual has been updated.
-It was possible to select knob controller tracks steps 65-128, even though the knob controller tracks max can be 64 steps long. This has now been fixed.
-The Analog Cymbal has 2 types of FM, that were both named FM, and it could be hard to figure out, which was which. The squared FM has now been renamed to SQ.
-The MIDIprogram change input parameter has been moved from the COMMON page to the COM2 page. It could not be set on the COMMONpage :)
-The Steps parameter in the unsynced Granulator was missing its brown knob. This has now been added.
