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.

Thank you much! I need to hurry up and get the shortboard then so I can download 1.17

I have been researching and have even called Line 6. I wanted another opinion or find someone who has done a factory reset with a spider valve mkii 212 combo. Will it revert it back to 1.17 or will I have to download it off the site? A tech at Line 6 told me it would not. But I thought it would revert the amp completely back to the way it was originally. Any help is greatly appreciated.
