Please people, could you help us to developing a new firmware update to fix the DSP AMP simulations for Code 25/ Code 50?

If you could make a fast research on web, you are going to see that this is a very common issue for all Code users. Probably the last firmware updates is affecting just a part of the DSP boards, not all, but in my case and many other people, we can not use the AMP simulations anymore, and the Distortion and Overdrive FX are not ok too.

At least,  could you make the older firmware versions available for tests? I'm sure that most part of the users prefer to have the original and very nice tones than bluetooth running better, better connection with the App, or any other improvement.

Thank you, and please, consider our beg.

So, I have had this problem on my CODE 50.

I turn it on, plugged my guitar in it, everything normally, but after some seconds or minutes playing, it just get muted on! 

 

The funny thing is that the Bluetooth keeps working on... I tried to eliminate some bad connection but I never found one. My cable is good, my guitar is good too... I don't know, it maybe could be a board problem or a electrical/power supply fault... 

 

The Amp and display are up to the date, firmware 1.47.

 

Please any advice is welcomed

The Gain and Mid knobs on my Code 25 are unable to reach 0 or 10 despite being turned all the way down and up; the gain's range is 3.7-8.1 and the mids are 1.9-6.1. Resets and reinstalling firmware have yielded no results.

After selecting a Preset, and after playing a song when I go back to the Gateway app I see a message saying, "Amp Disconnected, Connection with your CODE amp has been lost. Please check your amp and try to connect again." When I select "OK" it reconnects then I can select a preset. This seems like a new"bug" since the Gateway app has been updated to the current version. My iPhone is on a stand close to my CODE 50 the entire time. (about 1 or 2 feet at most).

Please advise. Thanks!

iPhone 13 Pro, iOS 16.4.1

Hi everyone, 

I bought the new DSP module and plugged it into my Code 25. Everything seemed to be fine,

However, when I turned it on the code went into bootloader mode and said "chk usb". I inserted a cable and my PC saw it saying "connected". Still neither the marshall site not the PC application provide with possibility to update. The site shows no information and the PC app says that the last firmware version is installed and cannot reinstall it. When press reinstall button nothing happens.

I tried Mac, MS Edge and other browsers, nothing works

Any ideas?

I've brand new Code 50 with latest firmware (1.47).

From time to time, the speakers output turns off. I do have to poweroff OR activate bluetooth detection then exit button.

Clearly, this is a Bluetooh issue - and I need a way to turn it off while playing.

Actyally, I've bought the amp and the original pedal switch because I cannot use phone bluetooth while playing.

Please, this is a MAJOR issue, I really need your help on turning bluetooth off.

I have an incomprehensible problem with the code, I try to connect to the combo via bluetooth connection, but the device is not displayed in the list of bluetooth devices, even after pressing REV + POWER the device is nowhere to be found (I checked on different smartphones) and throughout the whole time the code emits strange sounds of knocks from the speakers that are not solved in any way, I updated the firmware several times, this did not help in the end. Has anyone had the same problem, how did you solve it?

In case Marshall decides to do another round of Codes, or for people that want to buy one, here is my bottom line after dealing with this thing for a few years. I had Line 6 experience and wanted a simpler all-in-one modeling combo with a bluetooth app that could do hard rock. The Katana looked like a toy so I bought this.

PROS: Solid construction. Looks great. Good range of amps and effects. Bluetooth app is very good and can tune every parameter. Tones can be downloaded and backed up to/from Marshall site. Amp can sound very good (after a lot of tweaking). The Plexi, American OD, JTM Crunch and Acoustic amps are good. The Guv’nor, Compressor, Chorus, noise gate and all the delays and reverbs are useable. Marshall has done sufficient software updates to correct early issues (bluetooth, tones, bugs). Can be used at bedroom volume with Master on ‘1’. Optional footswitch gives good control. Documentation is good. Updater software on PC works well.

CONS: Other than those mentioned above, all the other amps and effects are bad. This includes the JCM800, JVM and Silver Jubilee. All the cabs are bad. None of the stock patches are usable. You have to make your own. There are user uploaded patches you can try but very few are usable. Learning curve is significant. The amp is too loud. When you turn up from bedroom level to louder, the sounds change and become very boomy which should not happen with a modeling amp. No effects loop. The ‘out’ is a mini USB. Connecting to a computer requires a mini USB to USB or Lightning cable, which is not included. I tried to use the USB to record to Garageband and sound came out but I couldn’t make it sound good. The footswitch also has a learning curve, and like other people I had to have mine replaced. 

ADVICE: Don’t buy it. I bought my Code 50 new from Sweetwater for $299 and now the same version of the amp is $399. If you must have a Code, get the 25 instead. It is cheaper and still absurdly loud. The higher volume available in the 50 is useless because it sounds bad. The extra hundred bucks just gets you painfully loud solid state power amp watts. 

If you do get a Code, upgrade all the firmware immediately. You need to connect to a computer to do this, but first you have to find the cable on Amazon. This is unforgivable.

BOTTOM LINE: I have spent too many hours tweaking the Code. This is what I hated about Line 6. But the Line 6 tones were superior. I never got a good JCM 800 sound out of the Code, after hundreds of hours of work. It’s only “great” amp sim, oddly, is the American OD. Marshall’s own Classic Metal patch uses this, not a “Marshall” sim! The Code is marketed as Marshall technology with amp sims created by Marshall, but it is not. Softube created the software and tones. This is not a Marshall amp. Line 6 Marshall sims are far better.

I have now bought a tube amp. I am keeping the Code because I have mastered it and can practice on it but I would not buy it again, certainly not for $399.

Recently updated the firmware for my code 50 and it stopped short of complete firmware installation when I received a pop-up to restart the installation. The amp is stuck at ready to update but now the firmware won't install again. Tried a factory reset but now the amp will say USB not connected...until I reconnect....then it will read... ready for update. Which won't update anymore or resume where it left off. Can I get the original firmware or another way to factory reset? Buttons will not activate anything anymore.

I recently got a Code 50. After a few weeks of using it and learning the my.Marshall website, I realized it did not have any of the newer firmware updates. I updated it with v. 1.47 and now I do not get any guitar sound. I get sound from my phone when it's connected via bluetooth. How can I install the previous version of firmware?

I tried using the foot peddle cable to see if it is a cable issue and strange things happened. I hear some strange music broadcast. Not sure if some neighboring device connected to my amp via bluetooth. Is there any way to turn bluetooth off and on?

I tried doing the factory reset and it does not reset the firmware. Is it supposed to reset the firmware with the factory reset function?

 

Thanks.

 

UPDATE: I got this resolved. It turned out to be an issue with the guitar.

Hi Marshall, 

Since your latest firmware update to v1.47 on 1st September and your update to the Gateway app my sounds for my settings have changed.

For example the 00 setting for JTM Chill that should be using the Marshall JTM45 2245, clean setting is now distorted and despite trying to modify it I can no longer get back the lovely clean sound it had as want to be able to use cleans, crunches and distorions for the various modeling offerings so have now lost one of the three types of pre-amps.

Can I roll back to the previous firmware v1.46 which did not have this issue or is it your Gateway update that is causing this change?

Kind regards

Mick Lawson

As stated above, I'm trying to update my Code 25 to the newest firmware update, but no matter what I do, I can't get it to connect. I have MIDI allowed through Chrome, also tried Microsoft Edge, but both are telling me that my Code isn't connected at the bottom right.

 

Only thing to try next is to buy a Midi Mini USB cable to see if that fixes the problem, does anyone have any input on this?

Hey, is there like a list that shows all of the updates and what the changes were?

I just updated my Code and in the MCU it said something bout a new Codec?

After updating it was not shown anymore.

So does the Code sound better now?

 

Thx for helping out :)

After upgrading my Code50 this morning (forced to do it as the new Gateway app does not connect to it anymore),
the pedal acts weird.
Every time I hit one of the three switches, it seems to randomly select a Setting and ignore the Setting that I linked to it.
And with Randomly selects I mean it continues to do that every time I hit the switch..

Did I do something wrong or?

Quelqu'un pourrait il m'aider s'il vous plaît je n'arrive pas à connecter mon ampli code 50 sur l'application Marshall gateway il me met ce message: CONNECTION REJECTED You may only control amps you are already connected to for audio output.

Je précise je suis sur iPhone 13 dernière version d'iOS.  Le téléphone lui se connecte sans problème à l'ampli je peux joué de la musique mais c'est tout 

j'ai au préalablement supprimer et réinstallé l'application gateway, reset l'ampli, mis à jour le firmware de l'ampli, déconnecté l'ampli du téléphone et oublier l'appareil Bluetooth, essayer sur un autre iPhone (7)... bref je suis perdu du coup je ne peut en aucun cas faire mes préset depuis mon téléphone et c'est frustrant enfin bref si quelqu'un a une solution miracle je suis preneur et merci d'avance 👌💪
