Roland G-70 firmware - 12/20/22 05:54 PM

Hello friends,

When I bought my G-70 it was factory loaded with v.3.00.
I noticed "floating" in the web, v. 3.01 and 3.02
Does anyone knows exactly what improvements do they have ?

Thank you so much
Best Regards
Carlos

It’s been such a long time, if a web search doesn’t get you the answer, I'm not sure I can remember. However, I'm pretty sure I updated to the final version, and had no problems.

If memory serves me, I seem to remember the installation taking quite some time. But I might be remembering an earlier update, not sure.

I can’t remember anything significant. Probably just bug fixes. Roland would always document new features if added to an OS, but were often less clear about what possible bugs they may have addressed in a minor update.

On the whole, major new features warranted either a whole new version (v.1.0, v.2.0 etc) and major bufixes got a decimal upgrade (v2.1, v2.2 etc), but usually second decimal updates (v2.02, v2.03 etc) were minor bug fixes that perhaps only addressed one bug.
