Please read the steps below for updating the main and panel OS on your Take 5. YOU MUST LOAD THE MAIN AND PANEL UPDATES SEPARATELY AND POWER CYCLE AFTER EACH INDIVIDUAL UPDATE COMPLETES.
1. Load Take5_Main_v2.0.0.13.syx
2. Follow prompts on the display and power cycle when the load is complete. The Take 5 will boot, but the OLED will halt on the splash screen.
3. Load Take5_Panel_v1.0.6.syx
4. Note the text on the segment display. It will read "PrG" when the OS is writing to memory; do NOT power cycle yet. When the segment display changes to "rSt", power cycle.
The update process is now complete.
Note: The currently installed Main OS is displayed in the OLED from the Global menu. The currently installed Panel OS is displayed on the segment display when the CLK SYNC button in the Effects section is held.
ALWAYS BACKUP YOUR IMPORTANT WORK VIA SYSEX DUMP BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY OS UPDATES!!
Not that we're expecting bad things to happen, but always better safe than sorry. Just remember, you're never going to say to yourself "Man, I wish I hadn't backed that up..."
We do not recommend using the following MIDI interfaces for sysex transfers as we have had multiple users experience problems with them:
Native Instruments Maschine
Digidesign Mbox/Mbox2
Digidesign 001/002
CME U2MIDI
To check if the OS update was properly installed, press GLOBAL. The OS version is displayed in the upper left hand portion of the screen.
If your OS update failed:
1. Update your MIDI drivers for your MIDI interface to the latest or last known stable version
2. Try alternate speed settings: transfer speed settings as low as 25% and as high as 100% have worked for some users when 80% did not
3. Try an alternate MIDI interface. The M-Audio MIDI Sport Uno works well here and is relatively cheap
4. In Windows with MIDI OX on Windows XP: Try doubling or quadrupling the Size setting to start, and halving/doubling the number of buffers
5. Search google and/or forums for the company that produces your MIDI interface to see if other users are having similar problems with Sysex transfers and whether there is a solution specific to your interface
6. If you are on Windows XP, try another OS or machine. Although it's not ideal, we have had less problems with Mac OSX and Windows 7. Windows XP has known issues with sysex transfers
**INSTALLATION NOTE: It is recommended to reset globals after updating**
