rox280s Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 I have found out on here that resetting amp will not take firmware from 2.00 to 1.17 on the Spider Valve MKII 212. I am getting the fbv shortboard this week (on its way). My question is do I need to reset amp first, then DL 1.17 off here or can i just get the 1.17? I am not worried about losing anything. I have my main dirty settings written down. Just what's the best way to go about this? I tralked to tech support 2 weeks ago and they told me once in monkey click on upload from file and find 1.17. Just didn't know if I needed to reset first or would amp automatically reset when i get 1.17 back. Thanks anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebluetones Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Reverting to the earlier firmware is very easy using monkey. As I recall, you just click on the firmware version, and somewhere on the screen you will have the option to revert to the earlier firmware. It's very easy. There might be a prompt to ask "Do you want to back-up your presets?" or something like that, but in your case you don't seem to need to. You can click yes or no... I wonder why you want to try the earlier firmware? The Spider's are so much more with the 1.52 and then 2.0 update. You will be missing so many effects! I too was curious what was different about the amp models, and have switched back to the early firmware at least twice a few years ago. I heard absolutely no difference, but boy did I miss all the new features! Hope it works smoothly for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
