frodebro Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Got mine from Sweetwater about a month ago, had 2.01 on it. Sweetwater was updating the units themselves before they shipped them out a while back, don't know if they still are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WickedFinger Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 3 mos ago mine did not have it. NO big deal to upgrade, did that right out of the box. I am sure on new shipments L6 is loading that in. We may be up for another upgrade very soon, so everything will have to be updated anyway. Important to reload the global s after a firmware update like the instruction indicates. I am not sure if others experienced this but after I loaded my files back, when turning the unit on it goes into this rebuilding preset mode thing which takes about 4-5 mins to boot up. It stopped and went back to normal turn-on fast boot again after I exported a new Bundle file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rd2rk Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 MusicLaw - It was sealed, and I'm pretty sure - tho I can't swear - that it was the factory seal because I'd heard the same as frodebro, and was wondering as I opened it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MusicLaw Posted November 4, 2016 Author Share Posted November 4, 2016 Thanks to all whom have replied. I'll can check with Sweetwater and L6 next week. Yes. Based on DI's recent posts a new firmware release may be forthcoming in the next week or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanbobalan Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 I go mine from Sweetwater about 2 weeks ago and received in a sealed box with 2.01 updated. I think Sweetwater did the updates because on the box, it said 1.0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spikey Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Im sure it depends on how fast the sellers stock has moved. If its sit there a bit its possible to get one with older firmware, but its easy to update so I don't see this as an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
