Caveats

  • Installation of this firmware is at your own risk
  • Presets saved in this firmware will not load with the manufacturer's firmware, and vice versa. Users are advised to run INIT from the main menu after switching firmware
  • Some changes are not documented
  • Some of Yarns' stock capabilities have been downgraded to accommodate new features (e.g. the sequencer holds 30 notes instead of the original 64)

Installation

  1. Download yarns.syx from the latest release's assets
  2. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for installing new firmware
