Fixed Logic X crash which happened when switching presets on the hardware (Glide+VCO1/2) while the plugin GUI was hidden, in OSX.
Also, by a request of user Rene (MR79), the VI components (only) should now change the presets and settings also in the GUI, when sending program changes to the hardware and having Echo Midi set to On. It’s pretty much a “workaround”, as we didn’t want to alter the firmware at this point but it seems to work quite well so far in Ableton and Logic - more on this later. No changes are made to the firmware and drivers.
As usual, we’d like to consider this our final release. Please remove any older components, download and reinstall the full package. Let us know how it works for you.
NOTE: Please do not link or publish this version to anyone outside this beta group, as it may cause different versions of the product carrying the final version numbers to co-exist on-line.

http://www.moogconnect.net/downloads/minitaur/Minitaur-Firmware-Updater-OSX-2.2.0rc11.zip
- Version number will read 2.2.0, with no RC suffix.
Windows Drivers:
Driver v3.30.0 (Windows 7 and up): http://www.moogconnect.net/downloads/minitaur/Moog_Minitaur_USB_DriverSetup_v3.30.0.zip
Driver v2.23.0 (Vista or XP): http://www.moogconnect.net/downloads/minitaur/Moog_Minitaur_USB_DriverSetup_v2.23.0.zip
- The driver allows DAWs to use Minitaur’s Midi ports and an Editor plug-in at the same time.
NOTES:
- Drivers haven’t been changed since the last version, so no need to reinstall if already present.
- Users must first update the Minitaur firmware, and only then install the driver.
- With the new dedicated driver for the Sub Phatty, there is no need anymore for the generic moog USB driver and it should be removed. Uninstall any existing generic moog USB driver from “Programs and Features” (Control Panel) and manually delete the files “moogusbmidi_x64.sys” and “moogusbmidiks_x64.sys” in “Windows\system32\drivers”, before continuing.
- No driver is needed on OSX.
Installation
Updating the Firmware:
- Enter bootloader mode: Press and hold VCO1 Wave and VCO2 Wave switches, and while keeping them both pushed plug the power cord into your Minitaur unit. Keep holding the two switches and press the Release switch, then release all switches. You should see the Glide switch LED blinking slowly, which indicates that your Minitaur is now in bootloader mode.
- Connect your Minitaur to your computer using a USB cable. Please connect it directly and not using any hub. If Windows starts an automatic driver search, let it install the default drivers.
- Run the updater and follow the instructions
- Once completed, run the Editor and check for the firmware version by clicking on “Settings”. Verify it says “2.2.0”.
Installing Windows drivers:
- Power off your Minitaur and disconnect its USB cable.
- If you haven’t done so already, uninstall any existing generic moog USB driver from “Programs and Features” (Control Panel), and manually delete the files “moogusbmidi_x64.sys” and “moogusbmidiks_x64.sys” from Windows\system32\drivers.
- If case you are also using a Sub Phatty, install its new dedicated driver, posted here:
http://forum.moogmusic.com/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=25828
Same goes for Sub 37. Use the production driver provided with the Editor 1.0.0 / Firmware 1.2.0 release package. - Restart your computer.
- Power the Minitaur On, connect the USB cable and let Windows auto-detect and install the default Minitaur driver. This may take a few minutes so please be patient.
- Once detected, install the new Minitaur driver. The installer should load two popup messages, asking to confirm the new driver. Mark the checkboxes and let it complete. If asked by the installer to disconnect and reconnect the cable, please do so.
- Restart your computer.
- Check your Device Manager settings. There should be a separate entry for MTR, SPH and S37 (in case they are present is your system). The entries should appear under the root, with no exclamation mark placed on them.
- Open the Editor, click the Setting button and select “moog Minitaur In/Out” from the Midi Input and Output menus. To sync all preset, click the GET button.
Thanks for your cooperation !
