MIDAS M32 Firmware Takes a Leap ForwardMIDAS, a console manufacturer, yesterday released its firmware and application software update, V3.0, for its award-winning M Series. Major performance enhancements now await users of the M32, M32R, and M32C digital platforms. With strong focus on networked system control, Midas has gone the extra mile for the milestone update by including new versions of all of its remote control apps, M32-Edit and M32-Mix for all platforms with this consolidated V3.0 release. "Midas is continually enhancing the features of the M32's eco-system so that our customers, and their audiences, experience the best performance available," commented Music conception senior engineer, Jan Duwe. "Open control standards such as OSC, networking, and transparency across a system of components are paramount topics for us. We're on the tip of the iceberg with these latest enhancements, stay tuned for more!" A new feature for V3.0 is the automixing option; output phase inversion for all local, auxiliary, and Ultranet outputs, X-over filter options for main left-right and mono/center bus EQ, new Ethernet or MIDI remote control from compatible control surfaces, providing physical controls for distant mixers, such as M32C. Corporate board meetings, panels, presentations, and worship events will benefit greatly from the automatic mixer algorithm, which provides more gain to the speaker with the highest combination of volume, fader level, and weighing factor, while others are attenuated proportionally. The new M32-Mix for iPad and M32-EDIT for Windows/Mac OSX/Linux/RPi2 feature a completely redesigned touch-optimized and scalable user interface with keyboard shortcuts for fast, elegant operation. With huge functionality and customization of workflows, the apps offer everything on virtually any available platform! The Midas M32 firmware update V3.0 and the new M32-Edit app are available for immediate download at midasconsoles.com. The new M32-Mix app is available for immediate download in the Apple App Store. A compatible MixingStation App from developer David Schumann is available in the Android Google Play Store.
