What's new in 1.09

This is to give more subtle modulations. CHANGE: The preset load/save changed so that now the last preset to be saved or loaded is loaded on power up FIXED: Routing was not loaded all the time from preset FIXED: Preset Loading Screen flashes to boot screen and hangs FIXED: Randomizer on some list based values was giving out of range values

How to update the Intellijel Rainmaker

Both firmware parts are on the product page (Specs + Downloads, Firmware row). Update the module firmware with the Intellijel Firmware Updater app for Mac or Windows from that row. Update the FPGA image (.jic.zip) with Intel Quartus Programmer v18 (free; installer and video walkthroughs at intellijel.com/support/fpga/), using a USB Blaster or compatible JTAG programmer connected to the module's FPGA programming header. Where the walkthroughs say 'Altera', use the Intel version: the rest of the procedure is the same.
