MOTU M4 Firmware Version?
Is there a way to determine what firmware version is present on my M4? I noticed there was a firmware update posted this week; when I began the process of updating, the installer stated that the firmware on my unit was current. I checked the user guide (RTFM!) but could not find a way of determining this. On the M4 there is no startup screen stating the firmware version. Thanks in advance for your help.

I see the March 29, 2023 M Series Firmware updaters for Mac and Windows. Unfortunately, it doesn’t give any more details. I’ll try running it on mine tonight to see if I get the same result.

- Apple Menu -> About this Mac -> System Profiler
- Hardware -> USB
- Scroll down the USB Device Tree and locate M4
- Click on M4
You should see something like this:
M4:

Vendor ID: 0x07fd
Version: 2.04
Serial Number: M4xxxxxxxx

Location ID: 0x14400000 / 5
Current Available (mA): 500

Version is the firmware version.
Hope this is helpful!
