This is a firmware update for all G-System users and includes support for TC Electronic’s Nova Drive pedal, the new Univibe and Doubler FX, retuned Reverbs , Kill dry feature and several bugfixes.
Users with an earlier G-system software version need to update to 3.0 prior to using this firmware updater. (software version 3.0 can be found on the bottom of this page)
In order to upgrade your G-System to the latest software you need the following:
• a G-System with software version 3.0 installed
• a PC with USB port running Windows XP or Vista (32 or 64 bit)
• a Mac with USB port running OSX 10.4.1 ; 10.5 or 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
• a standard USB cable
IMPORTANT: Before starting the upload procedure, quit any MIDI related application on your
PC and Mac.
For security reasons we recommend to backup your user presets prior to updating your G-System firmware.
Updating the G-System software won’t delete nor alter your user presets, but to play a save game rather backup all your older user presets. Either with the new Vyzor editor for G-System 3.0 firmware or MIDI dump for 1.x and 2.x firmware.
For more information on how to back up your presets via Midi dump, refer to the G-System manual
