Topic: Anyone know how to update R-09 firmware?

yeah, it looks like you guys used the Roland site with the zip file. On the Edirol site there is an autoextract file where you just click a button and it downloads where you want to send it. For me this option didn't work. I'll get the zip tonite. Thanks.

Thanks guys, the zip file worked fine. +T's to all!

When you unzip the the v1.20 download there is a file in the folder labeled ".DS_Store", is this file needed by the r-09 also or just the .upd file.

thanks

All I did was copy the .upd file onto the r09, then unplug from the PC, switch it off, then switch it back on hlding down rec. Job done.

Yeah,  I used the .zip file from here http://www.rolandus.com/support/downloads_updates/eula.aspx?DownloadId=1817
and used the little 64mb card that came with it to do the upgrade. Smooth as silk.  Even works under Linux (upgrade and regular use).

That's cool, thanks guys. I did copy the .upd file and updated it, it's just that there was an extra file in the folder that said "ds_store" and I didn't know if it was needed or not.
