M7CL V3 Firmware V3.01 (Previous version)

M7CL V3 Compatibility

Please make sure to use the appropriate versions of firmware and software, referring to the following compatibility charts. Using an unsupported combination may result in malfunction.

Compatibility List

Known problem

  • Regarding M7CL-32/48, the following problem has been found. We are currently preparing the fixed firmware. 
    - Audio signal may not be output properly(muted etc.) when the output port delay is used on Slot 1 and Slot 2. 
    The problem does not occur when used on Slot 3.

New Features

  • The following VCM effects that can be mounted in RACK 5-8 have been added in the GEQ/EFFECT page in the VIRTUAL RACK window: 
    - COMP276, COMP276S, COMP260, COMP260S, EQUALIZER601, OPENDECK
  • The send-destination bus can now be selected by pressing the [MIX/MATRIX] encoder in SENDS ON FADER mode.
  • The Stage Box Data Conversion function has been added. 
    The system data using external HA previously was not compatible with that using internal HA; however, now they can be converted in the following combinations: 
    - "M7CL using External HA via slot" and "M7CL using Internal HA" 
    - "M7CL-48ES" and "M7CL using External HA via slot" 
    "M7CL-48ES" and "M7CL using Internal HA" are compatible and there is no need to convert.
  • The version of the firmware which the file was saved with is now displayed in the SAVE/LOAD popup window.
  • ST IN 1L-4R can now be assigned to INPUT TO TALKBACK for the input port.
  • M7CL EDITOR CONTROL - SENDS ON FADER can now be assigned to the user-defined keys.

Improvements

  • The following "recall safe" parameters can now be set individually in the RECALL SAFE MODE window: 
    - Input Channels : INPUT PATCH, INSERT PATCH, INSERT, DIRECT OUT 
    - Output Channels : OUTPUT PATCH, INSERT PATCH, INSERT 
  • The +48V indicators have been added in the INPUT CH LIBRARY popup window, so that the +48V settings can be checked before recalling.
  • The INPUT PATCH and OUTPUT PATCH buttons were renamed INPUT PORT PATCH and OUTPUT PORT PATCH respectively in the PATCH/NAME page in the GLOBAL PASTE window, and also the categories of those parameters have been rearranged.
  • The pasted insert-out is also now automatically patched to the GEQ when performing the Global Paste function with INPUT PORT PATCH on while a GEQ is inserted into an INPUT channel.
  • The pasted insert-in is also now automatically patched to the GEQ when performing the Global Paste function with OUTPUT PORT PATCH on while a GEQ is inserted into an INPUT channel.
  • The insert of an inserted channel is now turned OFF automatically when the GEQ patch is defeated by pasting the patch information concerning insertion in the Global Paste function.
  • The initial effect types of RACK 5 and RACK 6 have been changed to REV-X HALL and REV-X ROOM respectively in the GEQ/EFFECT page in the VIRTUAL RACK window.
  • The initial effect types of RACK 5 and RACK 6 have been changed to REV-X HALL and REV-X ROOM respectively in the GEQ/EFFECT page in the VIRTUAL RACK window.
  • Initial settings of user-defined keys were changed as follows: 
    - [1] SENDS ON FADER - MIX ON FADER 
    - [2] SENDS ON FADER - MATRIX ON FADER 
    - [3]-[8] PAGE CHANGE - PAGE BOOKMARK 
    - [11] HOME - MOMENTARY 
    - [12] TALKBACK - TALKBACK ON - UNLATCH 
  • The parameter PRE FADER SEND POINT in the MATRIX BUS SETUP page in the MATRIX BUS SETUP window was renamed PRE FADER SEND POINT for Input Channels.
  • A message directing the user to close the startup menu screen or select a mode now appears when the initialization of the internal memory is complete.

Supplementary Information

  • Some parameters included in OUTPUT for Global Paste operations differ between those when ALL is selected and those when WITH MIX SEND/WITH MATRIX SEND is selected. When ALL is selected, this includes SIGNAL TYPE (STEREO/MONOx2) and PAN LINK but excludes SEND PAN (from input channels). When WITH MIX SEND/WITH MATRIX SEND is selected, this includes SEND PAN but excludes SIGNAL TYPE and PAN LINK.
  • When the Global Paste function is executed for scenes in which some input channels are linked, the copied parameters are pasted only to the input channels selected as the paste destination.
  • When you load a file saved in M7CL V1 to an M7CL running firmware Version 3, the channel library data of the previous session remains accessible. When a V1 file is loaded to the M7CL V3 Editor, the channel library data of the previous session is cleared.
  • If Administrator user logs in while the connection with the M7CL V3 Editor is online, the Preference settings for Guest will be updated only when you perform the Re-synchronization operation (not updated in real time).
