My LP is dead

I attempted a firmware update last nite. To make sure I had good midi cables I sent my sounds to my laptop, reset the board, then sent them back to the unit. Everything was ok.

Use MIDI-OX to send the Stage 2.2 OS and walked away. Came back to a Cycle power error. Cycled the power thinking it would ask for a reload, now all I have is a blank screen.

Amos to the rescue! Contact Moog Support, it should be fixable without returning it to the factory.

I called and spoke to Ryan today. He suggested I return it., then mentioned something about a $35 debug adapter.

Ryan is talking about you doing this…

good luck :open_mouth:

Another one? Why? What is causing these errors?

That’s pretty sucky, but glad they have an alternative to a factory return.

They should offer an external debug port mod. :laughing:

In all seriousness, sorry your LP died.

and a free debugger… :slight_smile:

did you make sure to set the buffer size correctly in MIDI-OX before doing the transfer? That could have caused this error.

I followed the instructions, setting MIDI OX to 1024 or something to that effect, I have the instructions on my other laptop…I used a MIDISPORT UNO…I downloaded the file and instructions directly from the moogmusic site.

My Little Phatty also died THIS VIDEO i made may give you an idea how easy it is to use a debugger.

Hi, my debugger arrived today and I have this message appearing ‘communication could not be established with the specified adapter. Please confirm the current adapter and cable connection’. Can anyone help, I do not know what to do next - any advice please? :frowning:

Sorry I meant to say I normally work on an imac and this is what I used to perform the update for my stage LP to version 2.2. WhenI got the debugger I was told to use a PC I have tried it on two different PCs and had the same message I describe in the above post…

What should MIDI OX be set for?

Did you download the ‘Flash programming utility’ from HERE ? (bottom of the page)

You need to install the ‘flash programming utilitys’ on your PC before you can use the debugger.

Hi, thanks v much for the reply. No I did not download that - I downloaded the USB Debug Adapter Reset Utility and the IDE installer from Silicon Labs, do I need to download the Flash programming utilities first? then it should work?

As a mac user I am not familiar with pcs which has been more difficult.

(Great video by the way, bought the de-bugger after watching it)

Feel pretty lost now, have tried using the ‘Flash programming utility’ as suggested by Cane Creek but I still have the same message coming up along the lines of ‘communication could not be established with the specified adapter…’ The debugger lights up and everything looks promising but there is no way it will connect it seems. Is there any options for me to try? :cry:

Locky have you been intouch with Amos ?

I could print all the instructions here , however i better not as i dont think its something moog want people to do as a standard procedure as im sure they’ll be lots of cock ups.

If you havn’t already then i suggest you get intouch with Amos as he has a set of instructions you must follow to debug.

When i debugged my Little phatty i didn’t install Reset Utility or IDE installer ive never heard of them ? i only installed the Flash programming utilities and that is the only thing i installed on the PC.

Hi Cane Creek, thanks for your help.

I have sent a PM to Amos so hopefully he will be able to help, after reading into it a little more I am wondering if I should have done the update at all via my mac, although there is nothing on the moog site to say macs are incompatible. But when I was in touch with Ryan from moog he said the debugger software only ran on pc so not sure if that means the update should be on pc too.

I really hope I can get it sorted, I had only just got it when I did this :frowning:

I have updated the Little phatty OS before using my MAC no problem , however when using the debugger its PC only.
