I just got my SE out of storage after it being a year in a lock-up in London . . I know, shocking but you wouldn't believe what has happened in my life over the last year. Anyway, I want to upgrade the OS to the latest version and just wanted to confirm this before I do it.
I have a factory standard SE#86 @ OS2.5, am I right in understanding that I can upgrade to the latest OS3.2 and all the new operating features will work but as I don't have the v3 hardware upgrade I won't naturally get the extra patch storage?
Is that the only limitation without the hardware upgrade?
In upgrading, will I muck something up that might effect some of the hardware issues of the early SE's? Mine does not suffer from the noise at vol 5 problem, or the touchpad failure . . I think I have a good one (other then the wonky pitchbend which I can live with) . . will I break something by upgrading?
Thanks for your help guys

(studio is now up and running again . . yay!).

yes !... I have a factory standard SE#86 @ OS2.5, am I right in understanding that I can upgrade to the latest OS3.2 and all the new operating features will work but as I don't have the v3 hardware upgrade I won't naturally get the extra patch storage?

I got only a single bank Voyager, but the 3.x OS versions were all running fine here. And all features work fine here. Only 6 banks of sound storage are missing.
We have to thank Rudi for doing it this user friendly way.
Some other might have done it so, that the newer OS features were asking for the new digital board just to sell them better.
keep on turning these Moog knobs

Hi Mal,
Hop over to the SquareWave site and download a copy of the OS 3.2 Menu Reference page. It will show you at a glance where everything is in the PANEL, EDIT and MASTER menus.

Thanks guys.
I have been out of the loop for a bit . . otherwise I would have known all this already!
Updated on Friday to 3.2 and all went fine . . had the random display and noise on the compare function but worked out how to sort it . . . took myself off to squarewave, thanks for that Greg! (and thanks for the organised patches).
Busy servicing all my moogs now as they have all been in storage . . great fun . . really missed playing this last year.

Mal - if you have custom presets on your V'ger, back them up (dump SysEx file to computer) if you can before updating the OS. The update from v2.x to v3.x will scramble the patch memory, as the new OS stores patches in a different manner than before (to allow for the extra banks, you see). If you have no custom patches saved, then don't worry about it, just download the bank of your choice from moogmusic.com or from the Squarewave site and load it in after the OS update.
Cheers,
Amos
