bosone Posted August 1, 2003 Report Share Posted August 1, 2003 i have just burned SID latest version on pic16f977.everything works fine (even with jsynth), but when i mount the bankstick the following things happens:- i'm not able to play anything- the SID outputs a short impulse note which pitch is constantly rising- even if i upload the preset bank with jsynth nothing happenswhat can be the problem? i checked the connections a lot of times!

TK. Posted August 1, 2003 Report Share Posted August 1, 2003 Hi Matteo,so, you hear a short tune when you connect the BankStick - this means that the EEPROM has been regognized.even if i upload the preset bank with jsynth nothing happens...what should happen? Did you select the Patches via Program Change? Note that Patch #1 is the internal patch stored in EEPROM, patch #2-128 are the external patches stored in BankStick.Best Regards, Thorsten.

TK. Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Alright, this explains everything :)Your BankStick has not been formatted yet, the firmware tries to do this - a "beep" can be heared after every formatted patch, so you have to wait for 128 "beeps" until the BankStick is ready for use. It takes about 3 minutes.During the formatting procedure all other SID functions are disabled. When you interrupt the formatting (by removing the BankStick or Power-Off), the firmware will try it again so long until it has been completed.Best Regards, Thorsten.
