I sent an email to Moog, still waiting.
BTW, when Sub 37 is ready to update, (after turning filter cutoff and fine tune all the way down) is it right that midi button is red?

I send an email over a month ago and got no reply Andy... not impressed.

I use "bricked" very specifically, because I've tried three computers and none of them recognize the Sub37... "unknown USB device". So no - with no connection, no way to fix. I'd call that bricked.

Ok, I've made some progress, but it's still broken.

After finding another thread, it turns out that Step 1 on the update breaks Windows device drivers. Nice. So first part of the solution: find a friend with a Mac. That got me through a Steps 1 and 2. Then it broke again on step 4. And now it's stuck despite many manipulations, resets, etc.

On December 7, someone posted the exact same thing: start=30#p137311http://forum.moogmusic.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=22484&. The only reply was Amos saying (effectively) that Moog was too small a company to get its software act together. C'mon.

The hours & timezones that I can troubleshoot the device with a borrowed Mac don't generally overlap with the phone hours over at Moog (and I travel alot, not with the Sub37 in tow).

I sure don't mind re-arranging my schedule to do a call, but it's difficult enough that I don't want to arrange it and then cold call at a time they can't help me! As long as he's offering an email address, an email reply leading to a set-up call time would be dandy :).

And I'll also say, having seen the same issue on two unanswered threads, that it might be nice to put a solution up publicly...

Hi Squidfood,

What is your email address??? It may have gotten sorted into spam by accident. I will be happy to look into it for you.

Thanks,
