This package provides the necessary installation files of Allen & Heath dLive DM32 MixRack Firmware version 1.11.

Fixes:

- Syncing from an I/O Port could cause clock errors resulting in audible clicks.
- The output relays were not initialised correctly resulting in the outputs being unmuted at power up / down.
- An M-DL-ADAPT I/O Port adapter with no card fitted could cause the MixRack to crash when storing Scenes or changing Mixer Config.
- When firmware updating a DX32, all meters could freeze for 15-20 seconds and control could be lost during this time.
- DX32 firmware update would not work when the DX32 was connected to Surface DX ports.
- Surface DX 5/6 information would not update correctly on the home screen, resulting in a possible red cross.
- Adding or removing an I/O Port card to the Surface would reset the strip layout.
- Recall Filters and Global Scene Safes didn’t affect Inputs and FX Returns On/Off assignments to the Main mix.
- Also includes several other minor fixes.

Installation steps:

1. Download the latest firmware and save the .zip file.
2. Remove any previous dLive firmware from your USB drive. To do this, look into the USB AllenHeath-dLive folder and delete the existing Firmware folder and also the Firmware.md5 file. Do not delete other files or folders.
3. Extract the .zip file to the root directory of your USB drive. Do not change the folder name or browse inside the Firmware folder as doing this may cause firmware corruption. Attempting to navigate or open files within this directory may cause your Operating System to leave behind small temporary system files which can invalidate your firmware.
4. Safely remove the USB drive from your computer.
5. Plug the USB drive into the dLive USB port, and touch Update in the Firmware page. The dLive will reboot to a ‘bootloader’ screen and if valid firmware is found on the USB drive then details of the current versions and versions found on the drive will be displayed.
6. Touch the Update button. Do not interrupt this process. Failure to complete the transfer may result in firmware corruption. Make sure the mains power and connecting cables are reliable and that the system will not be disturbed or switched off during the update.
7. When the firmware has been successfully installed, the system will automatically reboot.
8. Once the system is fully booted, recall a Template Show or User Show to restore your settings.

About Mix Rack Firmware:

Applying a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your unit can bring various enhancements, include workarounds for diverse problems encountered by the device, and improve or add newly developed features.

On the other hand, downgrading the firmware version can recover the device’s functionality in the event of a software update either turning up faulty or causing the unit’s overall performance to drop. However, bear in mind that applying an older firmware isn’t recommended and might not always be possible.

When it comes to the update steps, due to the large variety of devices and numerous ways for installing a new firmware, it is recommended that you carefully read and understand the upgrade steps, and consider applying a different firmware only when you have familiarized yourself with the update method.

As the installation process is most of the times quite risky, this step should be taken by users that have the ability to successfully complete the update; regular users may initiate it at their own risk. Moreover, it’s best that this task be performed in a steady power environment such as the one ensured by a UPS unit.

Therefore, if you consider applying this release, hit the download button, take into account all the aforementioned aspects, and update the device’s firmware. Also make sure you constantly check with our website to ensure that you don’t miss a single new release.
