Hello, I currently have Akai Force Firmware 3.5.

I'd like to try 3.6 and 3.7.

But I'd also like the option to revert to 3.5 if I'm not satisfied.

My questions:
- Why has 3.5 disappeared? I can't find it anywhere. It was on my InMusic Brands account, but I don't see it anymore. I can't download it anywhere.

- For those who have installed 3.6 and 3.7, could you give me your opinion? Which one is the most stable for Akai Force?

Thank you!

I had more systems shut downs on 3.6. I would just get 3.7 since they fixed so many bugs, like you mentioned.
