Today, September 9, 2026, I will be busy applying updates to the database backend used by the web account and editor applications. The goal is to prepare the services for firmware version 5.0.
There may be intermittent outages during this time. I will confirm here once the updates are complete.
Thanks for the warning, @martin ! As per the other thread I can finally connect to the web editor again now that Chrome is on version 153 for the Mac.
All changes completed. I tested everything, it looks ok. If you notice any problems, please report them.
Well, here is the first problem: after firmware update new or changed presets are not shown in E1 Mk2 when I have transfered them (progression dots are correctly shown and disappear, JSON and LUA files are stored in the slot directory!).
No problems with untouched presets…

I am looking at it.
EDIT:
@HDV reload your app.electra.one. Once you do that, it should have the “light-theme with the white background”. It will ask you to update to 4.1.4 firmware. Pls, do that. Once back on 4.1.4, try to transfer your preset to the controller again.
Hi Martin,
thanks for quick reaction. I managed update to 4.1.4 like you have written. A new preset is correctly transfered to and shown in E1. But the changed preset don´t get transfered, E1 is blocked!
Dieter
pls send me the url or project Id of the preset (private message) - I will take a look at it. Thanks.
@martin Here is a test a conducted. I have a preset with midi.onSysex (and onControlChange, onProgramChange) callbacks. I fw 4.14 I cloned the preset. Updated to fw 5.00c. Sent preset to E1 from beta editor. Loaded on E1. But the sysEx callback is not firing.
I see the “MIDI 1 IN” flashing so there is something happening. I rolled back to fw 4.14 and the preset works fine.
Here is the 4.14 preset Electra One App

My electra lost all presets. So I wanted to use the app to reupload them. But it lags terribly on Firefox and Chromium (under Fedora 44).
It always freezes at some point while selecting a preset to upload. The browser tab uses 150% cpu and nothing moves any more.
Update. Firefox doesn’t freeze completely but the send to electra button doesn’t do anything.
Chromium freezes, when trying to select a brand from the search puldown. When searching manually in the big list, clicking on the preset or on the send to electra button does nothing.
There are no errors in dmesg it doesn’t look like midi is sent at all, but i can’t say for sure.
Update:
I found a workaround for now: Using firefox, I can send a preset if right-click on it and select open in new tab. This opens it, while clicking on it does nothing. In the new tab the send-button works.
Editing is still impossible, since it doesn’t work in firefox.
Update:
Or does it? I was, in spite of the warning pop up to use chromium,able to open the editor in firefox but i didn’t dare to send any edits to the electra out of fear of breaking someting.
Tried my E1 MkII today (FW 4.1.4, HV 3.0) in Google Chrome 152.0.7977.83 on a Win PC, so far so good.
Edit: while I was writing this message, Chrome updated to 153.0.8010.37))) But still doing good.
@HDV @xopbos @SV_huMMer @kiwigrass thank you for the feedback. Everything is reflected, aiming for an updated beta tomorrow.
Is the beta website offline? I can’t get past the Authorizing .. screen on start up.
I am working in that area but it looks ok from my end. I will review it more.
Got past that my starting at beta.electra.one instead of beta.electra.one/account/. But having trouble getting the E1 connected. It found the controller
Scanning ports it blew by port 0: Electra Controller Electra CTRL. (Windows 11)
After several reboots and holding of tongue at different angles I was finally able to get on the beta editor with fw 5.0.0c.
Let’s just say .. Windows.
I just saw that you got in. I was not able to replicate that 
It just worked at my end.
Liking the new editor features so far. I’ve craved dials for the mk2 for a while. And the case sensitive labels. I’m playing around with a preset to see what other new features there are.
One thing. In the editor the group name shows in colour. I think that is great! But when sent to the controller they always shows in white. I guess that is because if you use the highlighted top border the text will be the same colour as the background. But then perhaps you could have the option to set the border to a different colour?:
Also, is there a way to change the font size of the displayed list items? Didn’t see it in the editor, so I guess maybe lua?
DIALS!!! We have dials for the E1 ))))
