Since I had no luck with my question on updating problems, let me ask if the two updates are that important to basic functions.

So sorry couldn’t help you Bernie, I have no clue, I haven’t myself updated my Audya 5 since I bought it, hopefully someone will answer your question soon, it’ll be good to know

To avoid any confusion, I am speaking of the SD4, and not my SD40,

Bernie,
A few years back I did a recommended upgrade to my Ketron SD2 and it completely killed the unit. Dan tried to help but to no avail. AJ finally replaced the unit.

I forgot about that. Thanks Deane

SD2 is very easy to kill with the upgrade. I did it myself too

I never heard for now a SD4 killed by the upgrade, because it is done by USB and not MIDI

I haven't got the number for the first upgrade, but, for now I want to know if the upgrade is important for use in vArranger?

I think the latest SD4 update is 1.32 and corrects some bugs with some midi messages over USB or over MIDI

Hi,

Yes,
the last update is 1.32.
You can see it by pressing 0, holding it and turning it on.
Then it will be shown in the display.

Thank you Dan, AJ just told me to forget it. Like you say, it is a minor bug fix, and does not do anything for use with vArranger. I will tell my friend we are good to go with the SD4 as is. He will buy VA2 when he returns.
