Information Documents Firmware / Software Compatibility

Information

Latest version info
System firmware V2.14
Drive firmware T.4A, T.0J

 

System Firmware V2.14
  • When the media was set to CD and the PLAY MODE to SINGLE, selecting and playing another track some time after stopping playback of the first track could cause the sound to break up on rare occasions. This has been fixed.
  • When the FILE TYPE in the recording settings was set to MP3 (MONO (2ch)), "Record Error!" would be displayed immediately after recording started, and recording would no longer be possible. This has been fixed.
  • When playing back a file that was only about one second long, the audio at the end of the file could be repeated. This has been fixed.
  • When playing back files in succession, if the first song was longer than the second song and the second song was less than 10 seconds long, the second song would be played twice in succession. This has been fixed.
  • Operation stability has been improved.
  • NOTE
  • First update the Unit firmware to V2.14, then update the FPGA firmware to V0019.
    If the Unit firmware is V2.13 or earlier, the FPGA firmware cannot be updated to V0019.

 

Using the TASCAM SS250 CONTROL(V2.0.0) software
To use the TASCAM SS250 CONTROL (V2.0.0) software, please verify the unit's system firmware version is above V1.30. If not, please make sure to upload the system firmware to V1.30 or higher.
Using the RC-900 control remote
To use the RC-900 control remote, please make sure that the firmware version of the RC-900 unit is above V1.30.
