[QUOTE="Brian jojade, post: 109067, member: 211"] Re: Firmware/software updates There is a difference between rental gear and working with installed gear at a venue. With rental gear, I would expect a fairly recent build to be installed. However, if it's something that just came out a week or 2 ago, that's a little quick to expect all firmware to be updated. If you absolutely NEED the latest firmware for your show, make sure you clear that with the rental house so it can be installed and tested prior to taking delivery of the gear. If you take it and update it and end up bricking the piece for some reason, depending on the rental agreement, there could be ramifications. If it's a venue system, I would definitely NOT update the firmware on their gear without prior approval. There could be a reason they are sticking to older firmware. Also, if you decide to do the update and brick it, now you're the guy that broke the piece of gear. Doesn't matter if it's really your fault or not. [/QUOTE]
