Aktualizace systémového programu syntezátoru Roland JUPITER-Xm není nic složitého a při postupování dle originálního návodu je to otázka pár minut. Potřebujete k tomu USB klíčenku, nejlépe naformátovanou přímo v přístroji. Já jsem použil normálně naformátovanou ve Windows na FAT32 a zafungovalo to zcela bez problémů.

Z této stránky si stáhněte jupiterxm_sys_v103.zip, resp. nově jupiterxm_sys_v110.zip. Soubor, který je uvnitř - KY023_UPA_up.bin - zkopírujte do rootu USB klíčenky.

Pak už stačí klíčenku zastrčit do vypnutého syntezátoru, přidržet tlačítko FUNCTION a přístroj zapnout. Téměř ihned se objeví "JUPITER Updater…", čímž se rozeběhne aktualizace. Po pár minutách je aktualizace ukončena a jste vyzváni k vypnutí přístroje "Please power off".

Po zapnutí a kontrole systémových informací se můžete přesvědčit, jaká verze je nainstalována. Pokud jste aktualizovali z verze 1.02, bude změna patrná na první pohled už při stisknutí MENU, a kde dříve byly pouze tři položky, je dnes nabídka mnohem bohatší.

Kromě spousty zajímavých novinek, které budu zkoumat následně, mě na první pohled zaujalo, že byla ve verzi 1.10 přidána i velká sada nových tónů - celkem 45! Vše je detailněji popsáno v doplňkovém manuálu.

  • JUPITER-8: JP105-116
  • JUNO-106: JU108-122
  • JX-8P: JX106-117
  • SH-101: SH097-102
