NOtes not retriggering

Postby Computer Controlled » Wed Jun 29, 2011 12:39 pm

So now i'm finding that the notes on this god forsaken unit decided they didn't want to start re-triggering. Sort of like Slide was always on. My friend is coming down from Vancouver tonight to pick this, so the last thing i need is for something to go wrong. Anyone know what could be causing this?

It seems like the 1st note is just being held down over top of all the others. Also, when it Edit mode, shouldn't the pattern play through? Its not.

Something must have happened to the uC, as when i put the chip that actually came with the unit in, it all works. Not sure if something happened to the OS while trying to upgrade to SokkOS or not.

could be, that sounds like a micro problem. You dont happen to have an AVR programmer?

something going south with the flash can screw things up. Forgot to mention this in the other thread but did you try FTDI's official drivers? http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm this helped me get it going on vista

is the env jamming with the first note beeing struck aswell?

could you measure voltage on r146 and see if it jumps up and down when notes are hit and released?

I'm almost positive it was a failure of the uC. I switched uCs and it works. Must have gotten jammed up some how when trying to upload the new firmware.
