A fork of joeSeggiola's absolutely wonderful multi-mode firmware for Stages. This fork adds:

  • Polarity control for each segment type (including bipolar LFOs)
  • Re-trigger behavior control for ramp segments
  • Independent LFO (clocked and free) range control for each segment
  • Arbitrarily slow clocked LFOs
  • Track & hold support

Please see usage instructions for how to access these features.

To update, download the WAV file below and follow standard firmware installation procedure.

IMPORTANT: Installation will clear the module settings if coming from a different firmware. Right after updating from an earlier version of this fork, the stock Stages firmware or joeSeggiola's version, Stages may continuously cycle between green, orange, and red LEDs. Turning the module off and on again should restore functionality. This happens because this fork expands the amount of data stored for each segment, so will be incompatible with the settings stored from a different firmware. If you encounter problems, please let me know, either in a GitHub issue or otherwise.
