What's new in 2.9.1

Sometimes weird behaviour of envelopes is fixed Corner copy-pasting is fixed Arp not playing from the first step on midi play/continue should be fixed Occasional and very random hang/crash should be also fixed A few related and unrelated bugs squashed along the way A few graphical tweaks increasing contrast and clarity The oscilloscope code was reworked and is not jumpy anymore when playing a detuned Generator The parameter popup is nudged up so it doesn’t hide the oscilloscope Weird behaviour when modulating Suborbit Speed is fixed A new page of presets in collaboration with Oliver Torr

How to update the Beetlecrab Audio Vector

Option 1 (network): connect Vector's Ethernet port to your router and download the new version from the Settings screen. Option 2 (USB): download the USB image (vector-x.x.x.img.zip) from the support page and burn it to a USB flash drive with balenaEtcher (this erases the drive; do not use a USB hard drive). Plug the drive into Vector and power-cycle it; the screen shows "Loading from USB...". Confirm the update on the touchscreen and wait about 10 minutes without powering off. When prompted, remove the drive and restart Vector. User presets are preserved.

Just for reference. For complete and up-to-date instructions, always refer to the manufacturer's official firmware page.
