How to update the Befaco Lich

Lich runs Rebel Technology's OWL firmware (OpenWare). 1. From the OpenWare release linked above, download Lich.syx (if your module is a newer Lich 3 revision, take Lich3.syx). 2. Connect Lich to your computer by USB and open OWL Web Control (the firmware page) in Google Chrome. 3. Choose the .syx file with the file picker, click Flash firmware and wait for the "Firmware upload complete" message; the module then resets. Sound patches are separate: load them from the Rebel Technology patch library.
