    RECOMMENDATION

    Update all Microflex® Advance™ microphones and Audio Network Interfaces in a configuration to the same firmware version.

    NEW FEATURE

    • A device-wide, low-frequency filter can now be enabled with a new Low-shelf Filter button on the browser-based web application.

    KNOWN ISSUE

    NOTES

    • This optional update makes installation and configuration more efficient when running independent channels into processing hardware, such as an echo canceller or automixer, to reduce low frequency buildup when channels are summed. This update is unnecessary for MXA910 microphones that are already installed and well-configured, and may require the user to disable the low frequency filter if updated.
