Is 2.11.2 available for hardware ? Or is it just software .
In my account the firmware usb download is named as 2.11.1
But the software download is named 2.11.2.
Am I missing something?

Yep, and then there’s my 2.11.0 that Tutor noticed, lol.
I haven’t updated just yet, for various reason.

v2.11.2 on X, I’m noticing every few minutes a 20sec pause when saving a projects.
It doesn’t happen with every save but I have seen it and touch screen was unresponsive for that time.I was looking at the screen wondering if X was about to crash or not, then it starts moving and finishes the project save, it’s never happened before.

This problem isn’t on the Key61 v2.11.0, no pauses at all.

I am stil on 2.11 and it seems all is fine.
So should I install 2.11.1? Or 2.11.2?
So confusing.

You can go back and forth between firmware versions and it's not a problem.
Load older version the same way you load new versions.

On my X my LCD dims like it supose to them ever so often while in a session it brightens for no reason.. the few extra they gave us could have waited and just fixed the laundry list of complaints.. this will be the first to I revert back my firmware..

2.11.2 is beginning to look like a higher level of flowers.
What was the last one that was this jacked up 2.7 or 2.8 was it?

Hah I seem to remember all kinds of trouble with all of them around 2.5-2.7. 2.8 was when it started to finally smooth out I think and we got MIDI interface support!

I tried out that 2.11.0 you mentioned earlier. You can find it on Akai's site, just change the name of the file in the download link to 2.11.0 and it'll come. When I flashed it though, it said it was 2.11.1 in the preferences screen so its probably the exact same thing.

I'm only seeing 2.11.2. The 2.11.1 is not there anymore. To Add...the 2.11.2 isn't defined to Firmware or Software on the Site.

It just says "Update" 2.11.2. I downloaded 2.11.2 but haven't upgraded my MPCs until i fig out what they're hiding lol

If I log in to my inMusic account, I've got 2.11.1 for download, but if I go to the product page and scroll all the way to the bottom, I can grab 2.11.2 from there heh. You can get 2.11.0 too by changing the name of the file in the link.
