What's new in 0.12

• Microtonal scales: 54 new tunings, for 70 scales in total, including equal divisions,
  just intonation, historical temperaments, maqam models and Bohlen–Pierce. The SCALES browser
  groups them by family, shows full names and note counts, and saves device favorites; the web
  editor adds filtering, search and browser favorites. Chords, ARP and recordings retain scale degrees
• Concert pitch: set A4 from 400–480 Hz on GLO > GLOBAL, saved independently of projects;
  440 Hz remains the default and TUNE still adds a fine offset in cents
• Recording: retain the original note timing and gate lengths, with 1,024 timed notes across
  all 32 pattern banks. SEQ > TIMING > QNT applies reversible playback quantization and defaults OFF
• Recorded-note editing: SEQ > NOTES selects individual synth or drum hits, zooms the original
  take, deletes selected hits and supports undo without changing neighbouring notes
• Native user presets: 64 FM6 voices and 128 CZ-1 tones in separate collections, alongside 64 general
  user presets. Scroll and favorite them in PRESETS; import/export Dexed/DX7 and Casio .syx in the editor.
  Native slots store only the tone, so loading keeps the track's effects and patterns
• FM6 diagrams: MARK I algorithms 4 and 6 show their longer feedback paths
• FX change: the shared delay is retired to make room for expanded recording; THROW now feeds reverb

Upgrading from 0.11 / 0.11.1: existing projects, templates, settings and presets migrate.
Expanded recordings and new scale IDs need 0.12; older firmware cannot reproduce those additions.
Microtonal MIDI OUT sends degree addresses, so an external synth needs the same tuning and mapping.

Install

Connect the FM-1 by USB and open the web installer in Chrome or Edge. The installer saves a full backup before updating. For a local install, run python3 tools/fm1_install.py melodee-0.12.fwsc. The installed release reports FM-1_9012.

Files

• melodee-0.12.fwsc: installable firmware package
• melodee-0.12-app.bin: application image alone
• melodee-0.12-licences.zip: license and attribution texts for the firmware and bundled components
• SHA256SUMS: SHA-256 checksums for the three downloads

Validation

The firmware source passed the full host suite before release, including microtonal pitch rendering, note ownership, recording, migrations, UI, audio, performance and web tests. The 0.12 release package also passed build checks, update-loader and installer simulations, target performance checks, and web protocol tests. The same feature build was flashed successfully; hands-on musical validation of the versioned release remains unverified.
