Flash Memory Update Instructions
Here are some instructions on how to update your M13’s Flash Memory. Please note that
Line 6 does not endorse Cubase, MIDI Ox or Sysex Librarian. We refer to these apps as
examples only, since users report that they often use them to perform firmware updates.
Needed:
• A MIDI interface that connects to your computer via USB (download the current
Driver for it if you don’t have it installed).
• 2 MIDI cables (or a MIDI interface that comes with MIDI cables attached).
• A MIDI sequencer app such as Cubase, or a sysex app such as MIDI Ox (Windows)
or Sysex Librarian (Mac).
Mac users: go to Page B•4 and follow the steps under Procedure.
Additional Info For Windows/MIDI Ox Users:
• Make sure your MIDI interface Driver is installed and working.
• Run the MIDI Ox application.
• Go to Option, then MIDI Devices, select USB Audio Device for both MIDI Inputs
and MIDI Outputs; uncheck Automatically Attach Inputs To Outputs During
Selection; click OK to accept it.
• Go to View, then Port Routing, delete the connection between Input Ports and
Output ports if they are connected; make sure only MIDI Ox Event Port connects
to Output Ports.
• Go to View, then Sysex; In Sysex View and Scratchpad, go to Sysex, then Configure,
make sure you check Delay after F7 and set the Delay (Milliseconds Between Buffers)
to 101; click OK to accept.
Now go to Page B•4 and follow the steps under Procedure.
(NOTE: if the update fails and you’re using a USB hub, please try it without the hub).
