I am the "other guy" that has an upgraded tribute which is locked up after an attempted upgrade. I still have not gotten the problem fixed. Amos sent me a sysex file but I get the same result. Any ideas anyone?

#96 is at home in Stewartstown, Pennsylvania.

I got my Phatty back today and all is well. Apparently, the Phatty had a bad reset crystal that needed to be replaced. So, it was just an isolated incident of a bad component. Everything works great now! Moog even replaced the headphone jack with a newer, in-spec version and they installed the ...

Carbon,
I thought you were going to wait for the "performer" editions in order for the early production bugs to get worked out? What changed your mind? The Phatty is great obviously (even though mine had a boot up bug, which is now fixed--should get mine back on Wednesday!)--just curious.

Well, I spoke to Amos and as others have mentioned he was very helpful and great to deal with. The consensus of the engineers at Moog is that there is probably a faulty "reset" switch that is not allowing my Phatty to boot up properly (so you were on to something rachel). Amos said to send the ...

Thanks Nick for the reply,

Hello, I recieved my Little Phatty (sn #96) yesterday. After unpacking it and plugging it in, all the lights on the front panel lit up--and just STAYED lit up for a good 2 minutes or so. This concerned me because I have seen the bootup sequence on YouTube and I knew what bootup should look like ...

Recieved #96 from AudioMidi.com yesterday. What a beautiful instrument!!! I love the sound! I have a concern about bootup though (see my other post).

No problem stimbox! I had read both yours and CTRLSHFT's messages awhile back and I knew you guys were in the same boat as me--which is why I posted. A few other online stores had claimed to have the Phatty in stock during the last couple of weeks, but everytime I called to order--all of their "in ...

AudioMidi.com has little phattys in stock that are not "on reserve." I just ordered one from them, it will ship Monday. I had a little phatty on order from American Musical Supply since early July which I cancelled because 2 projected ship dates passed by and there has been no update as to when the ...
