Controller help

Return your Intuitive Instruments Exquis to normal mode

Controller apps take over the Intuitive Instruments Exquis over MIDI; they do not replace its firmware. This is not a firmware recovery procedure.

A controller app does not change Exquis firmware. An app that took over keys or lights should send the Developer Mode exit command when it stops. Maru has not yet verified this on a physical unit. Firmware updates use the manufacturer's own updater.
