Improvements: Added the option to route the audio from the Main outputs using Outbox 8. You can now use [FUNC] + [UP/DOWN] to navigate between channels in the channel configuration menus for Outbox 8.
Connect via USB, use Elektron Transfer, unzip the .syx archive, then drag-and-drop the OS file onto the Transfer interface. The device restarts automatically. Downgrading to an older OS is not supported.

Improvements: Added Outbox 8 configuration support. Bug fixes: MIDI messages were sometimes not sent if the device tempo was set to very low BPMs.
Version 1.10E — 23 Jun 2026
This OS adds support for updated production processes.
Version 1.10D — 28 Jul 2025
Support for updated production process.
Version 1.10C — 11 Jul 2025
Bug fixes: Sending Note On/Off messages to the FX control channel could in some circumstances freeze the device.
Version 1.10B — 9 Jun 2025
Bug fixes: Sending Note On/Off messages to the FX control channel could in some circumstances freeze the device. RTRG parameter locks were not retained when converting a lock trig to a note trig. When increasing pattern length, sometimes UI delays could occur.
Version 1.10A — 15 Apr 2025
Bug fixes: Preset locking an FM DRUM preset on an FM TONE track could cause the wrong graphics to be displayed on the PARAMETER pages. In some rare cases, after converting a lock trig to a note trig, the trig could play back with an inconsistent note value. Track layers were not swapped when performing a track swap. Sometimes a preset’s name was lost after it was added to preset pool if the preset name contained lower case characters. Adding parameter locks to all active trigs on a MIDI track did not work. The SLEW parameter was missing in the modulation destination list. SONG mode mutes were not swapped when performing a track swap. The parameters on the SRC page were missing on the device after selecting a MIDI machine using Overbridge. Removing send effects from main outputs, also removed them from their individual outputs. Removing parameter locks on active MIDI trigs while holding [TRK] did not work.
Version 1.10 — 20 Mar 2025
Improvements: Added Overbridge support. Added Chord modes (Root, Center, Spread & Memory). Added the possibility to select if the SCALE parameter in the KEYBOARD SETUP menu should be set per track or per pattern. Added the ability to preview a kit using [TRIG 1-16] when the kit is highlighted in LOAD KIT and KIT MANAGER. An arpeggiator sequence can now be rotated with [FUNC] + [LEFT]/[RIGHT]. The arpeggiator SPEED option has been extended with some additional choices. Also some options are now renamed. Added a method to swap tracks within a pattern. You find this functionality in the SETUP menu ([FUNC] + [FLTR]). Added an option to overdub in Live Recording mode, meaning recording on top of an existing trig does not remove the overlapping notes. Added the possibility to add parameter locks to all active trigs on a sequencer page or track by holding down a trig and then also holding [PAGE] or [TRK] while editing a parameter. Added [TEMPO/METRONOME] + [YES] shortcut to quickly toggle the metronome ON/OFF. Added tap tempo via MIDI note, using G10 on FX CONTROL channel. Added support for importing legacy SysEx data. Added support for exporting a previously imported project or preset with Transfer. Added an option in the PERSONALIZE menu option for allowing live recording parameter changes/locks only to already existing trigs. Added an option in the PERSONALIZE menu that is called TRACK SELECT that lets you decide how to select tracks and how that action relates to triggering the sound of the track. The currently active search filter is now shown at the bottom of the screen when searching presets or kits. Added snap values to the MOD destination list, holding [FUNC] while scrolling to snap to destination categories. The latest selected version of MUTE mode (pattern or global) is now remembered between power cycles. The MIDI machines SEL 1-8 and SEL 9-16 parameters now have unique default SEL CCs. Improved [PAGE] LED luminosity contrast. [...]
Version 1.00A — 23 Oct 2024
Bug fixes: Recording of retrigs did not work correctly in LIVE RECORDING mode. The arpeggiator did not start at the right time when micro timing was used. In some situations, transposing a pattern could conflict with the tempo display. Some NRPN parameters had incorrect values. The LFO destination list was not closed when switching tracks.
