Geek Pulse Firmwares,
In
this Document you will find the Windows Drivers and firmwares for the
Geek Out and Pulse units. This firmware chart will get updated once we
have finalized a new firmware and Driver periodically. Please note we do
not recommend you changing your firmware because there is a risk that
you might brick your unit. The firmware provided upon receiving was
selected to be the best firmware for your batch.
What the Pulse Firmware breakdown means:
The Pulse unit has three internal
points for firmware. The display board or MCU
is responsible for your Menu, Display, Volume control, and IR port. This can
only get updated in-house if you have the original chassis. This can be upgraded via Micro SD card in the 2.0 chassis.
The USB firmware is responsible for the musical data communication. It
controls the USB sampling, DSD over PCM, PureDSD and all other music data
formats. This can be seen using the Light Harmonic Control Panel.
The Main firmware is the overall architecture for the display,
processor, and DAC communication. The only firmware that cannot get updated in
the field is the MCU or Display Board. By using the Device Firmware Update
utility or DFU you can flash your Pulse with the latest updates via USB.
Our Firmware breakdown table will show you all of our
current firmware for all three major points.
