About

X0X is a groovebox in the spirit of ReBirth: two acid bass lines with a pattern generator, two drum machines and a breakbeat player, with shared reverb and tape delay sends.

The author publishes an installer, a manual and a browser emulator.

Install and safety

Untested. No compatibility reports yet. Maru has not tested it on hardware.

Coming after hardware verification. Maru will offer installs only after its own installer has completed a full install and restore on a physical M-VAVE FM-1, and only for open-source releases whose authors have been told.

  • Put the unit on stock V15 first, and keep your own copy of the stock file from M-VAVE’s downloads (opens in a new tab) so you can go back.
  • Back up your presets with the current firmware’s own export before installing.
  • Rescue: none documented for this firmware.
  • If something goes wrong, follow the recovery ladder.
  • The author's installer can also put M-VAVE's firmware back.
