This is a software update to fix a problem updating software? Korg has gone metatextual.

The E2 / E2S don't look very alive.
Looks like they are now just trying to fix the hack and the workaround for the hack lock. 7 months later and there's not even the simplest of bug fix or feature that make people want to update. Last time they atleast covered their hushup version lock-in with pad calibration and some *audio-in mode and noise* issue.

I thought the last update was rumored to be the hack lock. (the existence of which is an unconfirmed rumor.)
Any hex code comparisons welcome.

It was: They implemented a check if the version number increased. Really cheap fix and ofc people found a workaround to that aswell by just increase the update version of the firmware each time you switch, so the machine thinks it's getting a new update.
Now Korg blocks that too. They are so desperate and getting really low here.

Well, I WAS happy with owning 1 machine that Korg refuses to fix and improve that could run either OS, but now that they locked the OS I suppose I'll buy 2 machines they refuse to fix or improve.
Or a Novation circuit.

Fixed a bug related to “SOFTWARE UPDATE”...ahhhh okay.
Hmmmm maybe, just maybe, there is another update coming around the corner that is so huge that in order for it to install properly this minor update is needed to be installed first before "The Big One".
Downloading but not updating...just in case I'm right on that one.

haha..
I'd like to hear KORG defenders (on this forum) now......
From my point of view :
they are indefensible.
Quite simply.
this was my first device that I bought from Korg
Last device that I will buy from Korg
