  • firmware-20250116.zip "1601" Updates volumes correctly when switching between 2.1 and other profiles. Otherwise the same as "1301".

  • firmware-20250113.zip "1301" Restores the latency of 0.x modes to ~5.5ms (no midrange correction, no higher frequencies). Adds input CLIP warning (negative side only) in the alternate homescreen view.

  • firmware-20241007.zip "0710" Fixes USB to Analog input transition (broke when USB Audio adaptive mode was added in "0207").

  • firmware-20240803.zip "0308" Fixes transients in low-rate-only correction mode (C:LOW selected in the CORR menu) (sounded like an echo). Inadvertently added latency to 0.x modes.

  • firmware-20240702.zip "0207" Audio processor fixes, reset just the current profile to create an empty profile to be used with e.g. headphones (instead of the OK button, keep the profile button pressed in the RSET factory reset menu), fallback to USB Audio adaptive mode for hosts that do not read the feedback endpoint. If this crashes in your unit, let us know the serial number and update back to the previous version.

Firmware

  • Updater.zip Updater can be run on WIndows to upload a firmware file.

  • dualcore-2019-01-23.zip Supports a different display module, otherwise the same was 2019 Jan 14 version. You must unzip the package before using it with the Updater.exe .

​

STOP! Your unit probably already has new enough firmware.

Check the version date of the currently installed software before updating. You might already have new enough version! You can see the version from Main Menu > Settings > System Info. If you don't use the digital output, you're probably fine with the May 12 2014 firmware.

  1. Download Updater.zip and the firmware package and decompress them to the same location.

  2. Connect the Dual Core and your PC with a USB cable.

  3. Please detach USB devices from the PC that are not required during the update. Connecting Dual Core to an external USB hub during the update is not recommended.

  4. Turn on Dual Core and choose Main Menu > Settings > PC Link using the remote controller.

  5. Ensure that "PC Connected" is shown on the screen.

  6. Run Updater.exe by double-clicking the "D" icon. The updater program will require administrator rights to execute. On an older system, you may need to specify administrator privileges manually: right-click on the program icon and select "Run as administrator".

  7. When Updater detects the Anti-Mode 2.0 Dual Core, a small dialog window appears. Click the "Update" button.

  8. Open file dialog appears. Select the correct firmware file and click Open.

  9. The automatic update process should begin. Please wait patiently until the process finishes and Dual Core boots itself. Interrupting this process may cause the update to fail.


If the update fails, don't panic, it's possible to perform a rescue. You can find the instructions using the Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/20210518140711/http://www.dspeaker.com/en/products/20-dual-core/firmware-update.shtml
