Akai Force Forum: Everything relating to the Akai Force, the iconic 64 pad, clip-based standalone sampler/groovebox from Akai.

Hello,
I updated my Force to 3.7 today, and for the life of me, I cant get the midi program changes to work on clip level.
This worked perfectly before updating in all my projects and now nothing.
This feature is absolutely crucial to my setup and makes the force useless for live performance.

What am I missing here?!

Or how do I go back to previous firmware where this actually worked.

Any help is greatly appreciated

However, it seems the issue is present in version 3.6 as well, no change after I downgraded unfortunately.

Any idea where I can find other (older) versions?

EDIT:
I managed to download old Firmware versions here in case any is interested:
