What’s the difference between 1st and 2nd generation KLANG devices?

The first two KLANG processors, namely :fabrik and :vier used the same hardware platform. These are the first generation (1st gen) KLANG processors and they both use the same KOS update files.

All processors developed after – :vokal, :vokal+, :konductor, DMI-KLANG – use a different hardware platform and are therefore called second generation (2nd gen) KLANG processors. The KLANG:kontroller is based on the same platform and uses the exact same KOS update files. The KOS firmware files for the 2nd generation processors are the same.

KLANG:quelle XDM uses a completely different firmware and hence update files.

KLANG:app has a built-in update system for Over-the-Air updates. It automatically downloads the correct firmware files from the internet and installs it on the device.

Both generations are compatible with the same KLANG:app and Show files can be exchanged between 1st and 2nd generation processors as well.
