Metal Fetishist F.A.Q.
How do I update the firmware?
In order to update your device, follow the instructions on the Firmware Update Utility page.
How do I know which firmware version is my instrument running?
To check which version of the firmware your Metal Fetishist is currently running, check the two LEDs when powering the instrument on while in Stop mode. A start up blinking sequence shows the major version on the left LED and the minor version on the right LED. If there is no blinking sequence at boot, your device has not been updated since 1.x
The Metal Fetishist can't sync with MIDI.
Connect the provided MIDI adapter to the MIDI input on the back panel of the Metal Fetishist (marked as M▼). While on Start mode, your device can receive MIDI signals Start, Stop and TimingClock. While on Stop mode, your device can receive MIDI signals NoteOn and PitchBend. If none of that works, please make sure your instrument is updated to the latest firmware.
My Metal Fetishist does not power up.
If your instrument has stopped working and seems bricked, try updating the firmware. The Metal Fetishist v2 firmware version includes a fix for an issue that, in rare occasions, made the device enter a state that prevented it from booting successfully.
Is there a plan for a Eurorack version of the Metal Fetishist?
No.
Can you help me find a compatible power supply for my instrument?
We recommend using the power supply included with your instrument. In case you need to replace it, take the following into consideration:
The Metal Fetishist needs to be powered by a 9V DC power supply with a center-negative 5.5/2.1mm connector. That's the same type of PSU used by most guitar pedals. Make sure you get one that drives enough current (250mA or more) and you should be ok.
Does the Metal Fetishist use MIDI-TRS Type A or Type B?
The instrument comes with a Type A adapter, but supports both.
