Beta. Tested on one FM-1 (November 2026). Test reports from more FM-1 owners are very welcome.
New in this release
- Button lights: all 14 panel buttons (OCT- and OCT+ included) glow faintly so their labels can be read, light fully while held, and light fully to show the open page (HOME, EDIT, ENV, LFO, SEL, FX), drum mode (SEQ, ARP), a shifted keyboard (OCT-/OCT+), running drums (REC) and MIDI clock (GLO).
- PLAY is green while the sequencer runs (the FM-1's green PLAY LED), white glow when stopped.
- PLAY starts / stops the drum sequencer in tone mode too. Hold PLAY for 1 s to switch all tones off (that was a short press before). SEL + PLAY still taps the tempo.
Install
- Back up projects, voices and samples with the firmware that is on your FM-1 now.
- Open the web installer at https://subcity.at/flash/fm1-glider/ (or download FM1-GLIDER.html and open it) in Chrome or Edge, connect the FM-1 by USB, choose Device update. Keep power and USB connected.

- Back to stock: same page, Recovery & force update, Restore original V15.
