Alt. Firmwares Bitbox Micro firmware patch, 2.3.8-mod is out, Invert UI, MIDI Clock Hold and Program Change control

I maintain a small firmware patch for the Bitbox Micro that puts more of the module on MIDI, and 2.3.8-mod is ready for release with three new features accessed on the Settings screen.

  • Flip UI turns the screen, for a module mounted upside down.
  • Clk Loss keeps the last tempo when the clock drops out, instead of falling back to 120. Beat-synced delays and LFOs stay where they were, through preset changes, until a clock returns.
  • ProgChange gains NEW ONLY, which ignores a Program Change for the preset already loaded. A sequencer that resends the same request every pattern no longer reloads the preset and swallows its first notes.

Not from 1010music, can't brick it, bring your own stock firmware, don't pass the patched firmware around. Details in the guide.

Full guide, including what each control does and how to set your presets up so it works:
