Including the 20MHz hardware-upgrade (if needed)!
Finally available also for all 1-EPROM boards!!!
and Replacement Battery!

You are bidding at the original Digitech software "Artist 3.00.a" respectively "Artist 3.00.00.a" for the Digitech GSP 2101 effects processor.
This upgrade works for ANY GSP2101, GSP2101 Artist, GSP2101 Limited Edition, GSP2101 LE or GSP 2101 Artist PRO!
This auction also includes the internal battery for the GSP2101 (all Variants) which should be replaced every 7 years.

First:
Check your software-version!!!
- switch off the GSP2101
- switch on the GSP2101 while watching the display.
- The software-version is shown there while boot up.
- E.g. there is shown: "2.01.01.a." or "2.55.a"

That means:
The "2.01.01" or "2.55" indicates your software-version.
The ".a" at the end of the software-version describes, if your GSP2101 runs with 20MHz cycle frequency or not.
If you have a ".a" at the end of the software-version the Z80 (the Z80 is the main-processor of your 2101) works with 20 MHz.
If you have no ".a" at the end of the software-version the Z80 works with 10 MHz only.

What you will get in this auction:
A complete software AND hardware-upgrade to 3.00.00.a OR 3.00.a with detailed installation manuals and patch-file (zip-file download) with editing software for the GSP 2101!
With the ZIP-file you'll get more then 500 patches for the GSP2101, programmed by the GSP2101 guru. These patches can be transmitted to your GSP2101 over MIDI.
Be careful! Do not buy from sellers which offer the software upgrade for 2ERPOM board or the 3.00.00 upgrade only!!!
They might NOT work for you unit!! Please email me if you are not sure which hardware-version you've got!
In this auction you will get the 3.00.00.a or the 3.00.a upgrade (not the 3.00.00 or the 3.00 upgrade!!!)
If you are not sure which GSP2101 version you have or if you have any other problems just write me!
After the auction has ended I will ask you for your current software-version and depending to this, I will send you the right parts you need to perform the upgrade to 3.00.00a or 3.00.a!
