WARNING! Installing new firmware destroys your complete patch memory! Make a backup memory dump before installing the new firmware. Modor Music cannot be held responsible for the loss of your work!
WARNING! For NF-1 users with OS009 or earlier: Some MIDI interfaces don't seem to handle large sysex files correctly - thereby damaging your patch memory and making OS updates impossible. Try a Bank dump/receive first to check if all goes well! We'll try to make a list of trusted MIDI interfaces soon - Report your success or problems with OS updates in a mail to info@modormusic.com. This problem does not exist on the Minimodor NF-1m and on NF-1's with OS010 or higher, because it uses an updated sysex protocol.
MODOR NF-1m
The most recent version of the Minimodor NF-1m firmware is OS009. There is no separate users' manual for the NF-1m, but most aspects can be found in the NF-1's user manual too. There's also a video manual on the NF-1m page.REMARK: Users that have OS001 on the Minimodor NF-1m have to use the old style 5-pin DIN connection to install the firmware update. Updating through Midi-over-USB is not possible. This bug was fixed in OS002.
- OS001 was the basic version on the first NF-1m's.
- OS002 fixes a bug in the Midi-over-USB system.
- OS003 adds safety mode, improved MPE support, fixes a bug with selecting modulation sources and adds some handy shortcuts.
- When turning a control while keeping EXIT/NO pressed, you can inspect the parameter value without changing it.
- When turning Ctrls 4 or 5 while keeping MOD pressed in the OSC screen, you can change the FM harmonics without menu diving.
- OS004 fixes a bug in the Midi MPE support, and fixes a bug with Midi Note Nr #00
- OS005 fixes a bug that was created in OS003, which messes up the preset memory in some devices.
- OS006 stabilises Comb Filter Feedback, adds oscillator phase randomization, and most important: adds microtonality.
- OS007 improves stability when using the editor, adds chord memory, hipass delay filter, microtonal 1-note-off-scale option and a number of bugfixes.
- OS008 adds a few extra bugfixes
- OS009 improves SafetyMode and parameter inspection, adds a 'stretched' tonescale, and improves MIDI MTS and MPE for microtonal applications
WARNING! Installing new firmware destroys your complete patch memory! Make a backup memory dump before installing the new firmware. Modor Music cannot be held responsible for the loss of your work!
SOFTWARE EDITOR 
We have a software editor for the NF-1 and NF-1m! Standalone for every OS, and AU/VST plugins for Mac/Win.
Mac OS X: Standalone and Audio Unit, version v6
Linux: Standalone editor, version v6
Windows: Standalone and VST3 editor, version v6
Remark that there are also third-party editors, developed by Sigabort and iLov Machines!
SYSEX PRESET BANKS 
These patchbanks can be uploaded to your NF-1 using MIDI sysex. Instructions on how to import/export patchbanks can
be found in the Modor NF-1 user's manual (§8.9). Your NF-1 needs to be in the SYSEX DUMP-menu on the
'Bank Receive'-item to receive patchbank sysex, otherwise these messages are ignored. If you need a simple
SysEx software, we recommend using one of these:
Linux: Simple Sysexxer, can be found here
Mac OS X: SysEx Librarian, can be found here
Windows: Use the sysex dialog (View menu, Sysex) of Midi-OX, can be found here, or use SendSX, can be found here
Android: Syx-Lib, can be found here
- When using the USB connector, only the new version can be used
- On the NF-1 with OS009 or older, only the old version can be used
- When using the MIDI IN connector on the NF-1m or the NF-1 with OS010 or newer, both versions can be used.
