Ui12/Ui16 Firmware Announcement

We are excited to announce free public beta firmware updates for Soundcraft Ui12 and Ui16 series of digital mixers, bringing new features and enhancing stability.

In response to customer feedback and requests, we have added more features and functions for both phone and tablet/computer HTML5 browser user interfaces for the Ui family of mixers, as well as general fixes and performance enhancements.

While these public beta builds have had excellent success with our own software team, and external beta testers, currently our internal test team is so busy with other projects, we have been unable to schedule these builds into the official release qualification schedule. To get these improvements out to users as soon as possible, we are offering these builds as a public beta to people who agree to the end user license agreement before the firmware download process.
