X1850 update not working

Hi I just want to share my experience updateing for anyone who still need some advice. I had bought my mixer with software 1.6 and hardware version 1.4.

  • for what I’ve read in other discusions 1.6 would brick some older X1850’s.
  • It took me several atempts to update to 1.7, what worked for me was using usb channel 2 (not channel 1 as recomended) -I had a fresh restart from the pc, and I would avoid using it during the 7 min update to avoid my PC from creating any sound and sending it to the mixer while updateing as it is identified as sound card.
  • once software was complete loaded it will take several seconds to auto-restart, so dont touch your unit until it works completely normal again.
  • dont be alarmed if your update doesn’t work first time, as long as you can access update mode you can have another try.
