M-VAVE SMK-37 PRO

About

SMK 37 Pro is a MIDI keyboard master controller with a FM engine sound source compatible with Yamaha DX7 tone generator.

ATTENTION: There are some variations of SMK 37 Pro: SMK 37 Elite, MKE-P37 and Donner Starrykey 37 Play. Inspecting their v15 firmwares, I've found different binaries.

Alternative Firmware (CFW)

Coming soon

Known bugs and errors/issues (to review after v15 FW)

Wheels stop working after factory reset
minor error in Scale World II
BUG MIDI channel Seq Drum mode
Some latency found and appears to be related to power saving (not fixed until firmware 1.10 (v13)

Hacking (Thanks to probonopd)

The firmware update file has the extension .fwsc and contains strings that make it seem probable that it uses a scheme similar (or identical) to what is described in https://kagaimiq.github.io/jielie/datafmt/newfw.html.
