Midi Fighter Pros...the issues.

[Slettig]

Hey, so I finally got my MFP to work, literally after a little more than a month. I can proudly say that I did most of it on my own through trial and error; error winning mostly. It's been a little more than a week now that I've had it working and I'm just trying to see if there have been any updates on tech support. When I was going through my ordeal, there was honestly close to no help, with the exception of the help from many of you; much appreciated.

I think the main issue is the firmware. I screwed mine up and had to send it to San Fran to get fixed, worst three weeks of my life. I've talked to a few people about their MFP problems, and it seems that this issue comes up the most. PLEASE, let's get something out there that can literally hold somebody's hand and walk them through a brief instruction forum, or a video. In my case, I'm new to the DJ scene, and like all of you, so were you at one time, so it's difficult and extremely frustrating when you can't find help.

Thanks for reading, I'm just trying to help.

I think there's going to be a new firmware release soon,
so you can use the new updater when that's released also
some nice fixes to the menu mode for easier use and a few other nice features

Nice! Any idea when all these will be available?

What issue? Are you talking about flashing the Midi Fighter Pro with the Midi Fighter Classic firmware?

I'm not sure, hopefully very soon...midifidler is the man to ask,
if you do ask him let me know the answer also

I don't want to commit to a hard date as I do not want to release it before it is 100% good to go, however I expect to release it late next week.

[willinfluence]

Yeah of course, looking forward to the release

[basspenetrator]

midifidler.. will there be a update to the MFpro fw? there need to be another name for the pro instead of midifighter.. makes playing with a classic and a pro a total mess..

[willinfluence]

Yeah he said that the new updater for MF Pros will be out in a week or so,
There will be a fix for the correct names showing up in the control manager
also a new firmware will be out inconjunction with the updater

Me personally have had no problems with the MF Pro working along side my MF classic

Cuemaster shows up in the control manager as MF Pro Cuemaster
and my classic shows up as midifighter

[willinfluence]

Oh forgot to say that my MF Pro was from the second batch,
Don't know if that's connected to your problem or not
