Re: My Slim Phatty is dead

I guess I could sell the debugger as I only bought it to use on the Phatty.

My symptoms were just a few buttons lighting and a blank but lit LCD, sounds very much like your Slim.

Yes, debugger connects to a windows PC via USB and a ten pin connection inside the Phatty. Run the flash software and ...

Re: LP Stage Firmware upgrade synth died.

Hi Amos

Tech support contacted me with a suggestion of holding the "Master" button down when switching on. This didn't work.

Many thanks

Hopefully this will ...

Re: LP Stage Firmware upgrade synth died.

Thanks for your suggestion Waza.
I've just tried that but have the same result. I tried changing the transmission speed as well but to no avail :-(

LP Stage Firmware upgrade synth died.

Hi There

I just tried to upgrade the OS on a stage 1 Phatty to V2.21. The screen stated that there was an error and to cycle the power.
I switched it off but when I switched it on again the screen is lit but blank and none of the controls work. Is there a fix for this please?

Many thanks
