DM10 ROM and App updates
« on: August 05, 2021, 02:16:30 PM »
DM10 Studio Mesh Kit.
I've sufficiently confused myself so I though I'd ask for some input. My current OS versions are:
Trig OS: V  100a
Sound ROM: v  1.03
Sound OS: V  1.00s

I downloaded the DM10 Sound ROM Update (v1.03) with App Update (v1.00p) from https://www.alesisdrummer.com/index.php?topic=3.0.
When unzipped the files show as:
DM10_triggers_V1.01a.syx  dated 05/29/2014
DM10_sound_rom-V1.03.syx  dated 10/13/2009
DM10_boot_v1.00h.syx (which I think is the Sound OS listed on the module screen)  dated 10/08/2011

So:
My Trigger OS is older than the downloaded file?
My Sound ROM is the same as what's in the file?
My Sound OS, if that is the same as the file labeled DM10_boot_v1.00h.syx in the downloads is actually newer than what is in the file?

Any light that could be shed on this would be appreciated. It is my understanding that the Studio Mesh Kit was released in 2015/2016. If that's true wouldn't the module be substantially newer than the age of the downloaded files?

Thanks.

That update is from 2009...Mylar Realhead Kits..Do NOT attempt to downgrade...

The Final Versions
DM10 – Firmware Updates [posted 9/22/2014]
DM10 Updater 1.00
DM10_boot_v1.00h.syx
DM10-app-v1.00s.syx
DM10_triggers_V1.00a.syx (use with Real Hat pedal)
DM10_triggers_V1.01b.syx (use with Alesis Pro-X hi hat)
DM10_sound_rom-V1.03.syx

Your module looks to have the final version...the boot file v1.00h and sound rom v1.03 hadn't changed for years..The final version you can see/select 4 kits if you go through the Initializing the Default Trigger Settings(DM10 Studio Kit, DM10 Studio Kit Mesh, DM10 X Kit, and DM10 X Kit Mesh only)The triggers are the one to be careful with...v1.01b is for the Pro-X (FSR) Hi hat...once that update is installed you cannot (not recommended..HIGH risk) downgrade back to the earlier version for the Realhat pedal

Thank you for the prompt response, Chaser. I will leave everything the heck alone. My only remaining question is what is the "Sound OS" listed on my module? I'm not changing a thing with these files but I'm curious which of those downloaded files corresponds to Sound OS?

Thanks again.

"app"=Sound Operating System..
"Sound ROM" = sounds
