Okto 8 Owner’s Thread

Firmware 1.6 officially released -> https://mailchi.mp/oktoresearch/firmware-v-16-release?e=8ee31ee491.

Looks like the firmware can currently only be installed with windows.

You think they would have waited until it was available for all platforms. Disappointing.

Disappointing perhaps yes, but at this point I think all Okto fans are quite used to their delays unfortunately.

@mdsimon2 have you heard anything as to when we may expect a multiplatform updater? If Oktos position is 'never' I might put some effort into plugging the DAC8Pro into one of my Windows boxes, but it'd be nicer if I didn't have to bother with that.

Personally, I tihnk I'll stick with Camilla for DSP but I am really curious to see how this firmware performs in DSP duties for others. One thing I like about my CamillaDSP setup is that if my CamillaDSP isn't engaged "properly" for my setup it is likely going to output silence, seeing how channel 1 & 2 are unused. The players in my stereo output to channel 3, 4, 5 & 6 and Camilla makes the magic happen with room EQ and XO.

No idea but it has been only Windows since May 10. I also had to dig out a non-work Windows laptop as I don't typically use one.

Again, I sort of wish that this forum allowed for something other than "likes".

That sucks. Pawel, please give us something better.

I emailed Okto and basically said the same thing. I got a reply back from Pavel a day later saying the mac update would be out in a week....let's hope...
