What do you use to control the FM-1?

I'm currently driving mine with an Arturia MiniLab 3. It works pretty good - I even managed to get some MIDI CC working by making my own MIDI preset for my Arturia. Still working on making the pads toggle the effects though.

I've also been trying to control it with a Minilab 3 and Minilab 2 simultaneously, but so far got no success as it seems like the USB-C on the FM-1 isn't capable of powering the controller on, so if anyone have any tips on using two MIDI controllers on this thing at the same time it'd be much appreciated. (Does midi through USB even work at all on the FM-1 though?)

Help with updating to firmware v15

Hey guys. I just purchased my second FM-1, the first one came up defective and the seller told me they didn't have a channel for returning purchases. I kept it but whenever I play it it just keeps resetting itself.

anyway, I was able to get v15 on my first one no problem, but I can't seem to update my second one to v15. When I use m-upgrade, it starts the process, shuts down my FM-1 and then it gets stuck on the "wait for device reconnection" screen. Anyone got any clues on how to solve this?
