Question

Hi....

I just updated Universal Control to version 2.3.0.44619 Win x86 (Built on Sep 22 2017).

Now the UC flashes "PLEASE UPDATE DEVICE FIRMWARE!" with a yellow font-color. 

It seems you can click it, but nothing happens when you do? 

Tried find a solution online, tried different things like restarting, unplugging device and such.

I really find Presonus's applications to be very unreliable and hard to make "just work". 

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

It's on the menu system.

Try "Settings > Update Firmware" and it's easy.


Tip: It's always a win to explore the menu system on every app you use, to get a feel for additional options.

PreSonus is extremely pro active in terms of keeping their stuff up-to-date, so it works across a wide range of configurations, and has the fewest issues possible.

Both Windows and Mac are constantly updating, and PreSonus does an excellent job keeping up. I don't know of any other hardware/software firm doing it better, they are among the best.

Hi again! 

Thanks for the quick response... but...

Problem is that it is greyed out, look here:

Answer 3

I'd verify that you have the latest Universal Controller installed first.

I'm assuming you downloaded the latest rather than using a CD that is with the interface.

As of this writing the latest is 2.3.0.x

That said, on the File menu is a "Check for Updates".

I'd use that to verify the UC is up to date first.

I hope that helps.

Answer 4

Has this been answered?  I have the same problem - Universal Controller asking to "PLEASE UPDATE DEVICE FIRMWARE" but that menu "Settings/Firmware Update..." is greyed out and unavailable.

Meanwhile I'm getting Window messages saying Limited or No Connectivity to Audiobox.
