Sound Devices recently released MixPre Series Firmware v1.11 update for the new MixPre-3 and MixPre-6. The firmware update will provide new playback functionality as well as other system enhancements to previously released versions.
   

Changes introduced in MixPre Series Firmware v1.11 update include:

New

• When playing back a file, the file's remaining time is now shown in the Status Bar.

Changes

• The File List Number is now editable from 1 to 9999.
• The Current Project name is now displayed in the Menu>Project header.
  
• The Headphone output is briefly muted when Aux In Mode is changed to prevent loud audible pops.
  
• Various system improvements and enhancements.

Fixed

• In some custom setups, ISO Tracks were recorded low level when Tracks L and R were disarmed.
• File corruption when power was depleted mid-recording.
  
• Some custom mode settings were not retained after a power cycle; for instance, 40 Hz Low Cut Filter setting was set to 80Hz after a power cycle.
  
• After a power cycle, channel gain was not set correctly until the channel knob was slightly adjusted.
  
• Channel 5 and 6 did not correctly show limiter activity when Input Source was set to Aux In.
  
• Clip indicator showed twice for one clipping event.
  
• Changing headphone gain while in the Solo/Mute screen caused incorrect monitoring and routing of signals to the headphone output.
  
• Gain and pan controls were not grayed out on channel 2 when channels 1 and 2 were linked as a stereo or MS pair. (MixPre-3 Only)
  
• Engaging record with a full SD card inserted created small files.
• Incorrect message was displayed when attempting to record with a locked SD Card inserted. Now, 'SD Card is Locked' is reported.
  
• Camera Meters (C1, C2) did not display signal activity in Custom Mode with Advanced Headphone Settings.
  
• Camera and USB Meters didn’t show any activity during playback.
  
• USB Audio Routing was incorrect while playing back.
  
• The Open Project Menu list was displayed incorrectly when rapidly scrolling through it.
  
• Audio Delay could have been incorrect after changing sample rate.
  
• A recording's first sample could have been incorrect after changing sample rate.
  
• Improved stability of HDMI Timecode.
  
• USB Keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Z did not perform Undo.
  
• USB Keyboard shortcut F2 did not enter the File List.
  
• The Record/L&R Gain setting incorrectly altered the L&R track playback levels. The setting should only affect the L&R record levels, not the L&R playback levels.
