Sound Devices 702T Audio Recorder Firmware 2.67 Description

Fixes:

- Low level File system improvements.
- DC offset removed when HPF is enabled for high sample rate recordings.

Known Issues:

- If a single storage medium (i.e. CompactFlash card) is selected/available for recording and it is unintentionally removed the unit will briefly show that the volume has been taken off-line, but the display will still indicate recording and the record LED will remain illuminated for up to 30 seconds or until STOP is pressed.
- When initiating a repair on an unformatted volume (not likely...but), the unit will begin the process and lock up, requiring a hard shut down.
- FireWire storage volumes with a PL3507 FireWire chipset and hard drive fail the speed test. Threre is a problem reading from these external drives. There are no problems writing to drives of this type.
- These known issues will be addressed in future revisions of firmware.
- Cue Markers are deleted if file is automatically split.

Firmware Installation Instructions:

- Sound Devices recommends backing up any existing audio data that may reside on the recorder. While no data on the storage is changed during the update process, it is best practice to backup the unit. In addition, it is highly recommended to save the current device settings since a firmware update can result in settings changing to factory default.
- Download the 702t firmware file.
- From the zip archive, extract the file within. Copy this .prg file to the root level of a SD or CF memory card. Do not place the file in any folder. Do not place the zip file on the SD or CF card. The card must be formatted as a FAT32 volume.
- Apply Update to 702t
- Power the 702t from external DC. Do not perform the update with low batteries or unstable power sources.
- Power down the 702t if it is already powered up.
- Insert the SD or CF card with the .prg file.
- Power on the 702t.
- Navigate to Setup Menu option SYSTEM > Update Firmware and follow the on-screen instructions.
- When the update is complete, power down the 702t.
- Power the 702t on. The version number will be displayed briefly on the splash screen while booting up. Please note any changes or additions to the Setup Menu (if applicable).

About DJ Mixers:

Updating the mixer’s firmware version can add support for newly developed features (or improve existing ones), enhance audio quality and transition effects, resolve different problems such as those regarding various noises heard in certain situations, and many other related improvements.

However, before downloading this package, go to the unit’s system information and make sure that the currently installed firmware isn’t either newer or matches this release. Moreover, you should know that an update failure might seriously damage the mixer’s software, so it is vital that you are familiar with the installation steps.

As for applying this release, you must transfer the downloadable package (or its content) to the mixer via any available methods, and power up the unit through various key combinations in order to enter update mode (make sure you read the product’s user guide).

This said, if you consider installing this release and you’re positive you have all the knowledge you need for a successful upgrade, download the package, and apply it to your mixer. Check with our website constantly so that you don’t miss any update that can improve your device.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
