LeSchloma · Post by **LeSchloma** » Thu Mar 07, 2019 4:18 pm

After the update on 3.0.0 my rode mic which needs 48V does not work anymore. no orange led at the back of the keyboard. dynamic mics are running.
Could anybody confirm this?

I can also confirm that phantom power is not working with my Behringer mic. I get a buzzing noise when activated but no audio in. This mic worked fine on the previous V2.x.x

That sounds good.

With such a massive bug what is your experience, how long does it take for KORG to react? Thanks.

Korg are pretty reasonable with new version reactions but to answer your question, I have absolutely no idea.
I do not work for, or have any direct connection with the Korg organisation.

Cheers

That's right. It's a big bug. Mine(Sennheiser E865S microphone) is not working, too. I wanted to be sure about that so I downgraded the os to v2 and everything is working fine. Korg should come very quick with an repairing update. I can't understand how such a big bug can came with a new os

Shame on you KORG!

Why shame on Korg?
The bugs were not intended, no one wants this.
There was an enormous pressure and hype in the user communities in "late february" and "early march". A lot of questions, suggestions and rumours. Maybe they released to early in fact of this.
I'm sure, the bugs will be corrected, and we now have to be patient, until the work is finished and tested.
In the meantime I enjoy the new functions, that work fine.
Remember, this was an update for free, the third one for this model, others manufacturers would have sold 3 new devices.
So, I'm a user and no employee of Korg, but I can't join into all that complaining.
Best regards

If tibisor is that unhappy then just roll it back to version 2. Does he/she think only Korg have things slip through on os upgrades. I for one am happy with v3 despite the few bugs. I can’t imagine the thousands of possible things that Korg had to test on this update. So a few bugs getting by is nothing when you look at it that way. Like the majority of users I am sure these things will be sorted out in future updates. There is no need to throw all the toys out of the pram.

Treating this as a light-hearted joke.

+1
Testing software of an instrument like this would be beyond huge.
I reckon they've done a much better job with the major V2 and V3 updates.
The original PA4X V1 was more buggy.

V2 and V3 are new OS's - testing would be massive - think about all the different permutations of usage that would have to be tested.
I am sure Korg will return the Phantom soon.
