Hologram Electronics releases Microcosm firmware v1.13

May 1, 2022 · 1 sources

Hologram Electronics released firmware v1.13 for its Microcosm pedal in May 2022, according to the maker's firmware page1. The page states that the most current firmware is v1.13 and that pedals ship with the latest firmware1.

The maker says units shipped in June 2022 or later already carry v1.13, while pedals shipped around the release date may also have it installed1. Owners can check the installed version from the pedal itself. Holding the Shift button and the Phrase Looper button simultaneously enters Global Configuration, which the page says is indicated by animating amber lights. Tapping the Reverse button, beneath the Phrase Looper button, three times rapidly then lights LEDs according to the firmware version1:

The Microcosm can receive firmware updates via MIDI1. Hologram directs owners with older firmware and no MIDI interface to contact its support team, and offers a browser-based installer for those who have an interface, plus a .syx file and instructions for users who prefer a SysEx transfer utility1.

The Microcosm is a granular effects pedal; the maker's page does not list further changes included in v1.131.
