bleeptor Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Something's wrong with my banksticks. I had a 24LC512 and uploaded the SID app (6581.hex). I had all the patches for a while and everything was fine, until I tried connecting a new chip for the ensembles, then the patches erased from the 24LC512. I reuploaded the SID App from MIOS studio but I still can't access any sound except LEAD PATCH and A003 TECHNO 5th. I have my banksticks(24LC512) connected as A=0. I also tried with another chip(24LLC256) and same thing happens. In both of the cases after the 064 empty patch it reads "no bankstick". How do I get the patches on the banksticks again?

TK. Posted November 1, 2011 Report Share Posted November 1, 2011 Could it be, that two (or more) BankSticks are assigned to the same CS configuration, so that they can't be addressed anymore? Best Regards, Thorsten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleeptor Posted March 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I only have one banksticks connected, so there's only one possible address. I've tried connecting it to other than A=0, but same thing happens, and most of the time it just keeps "Launching CS" during startup. ¿Could it be something else? I have the banksticks connected like this: Pin 1,2,3,4 and 7 to Vs on J4 port on CORE. Pin 5 to SD on J4 port on CORE. Pin 6 to SC on J4 port on CORE. Pin 8 to Vs on J4 port on CORE. Here's a pic of the project: http://i123.photobucket.com/albums/o290/8bitvic/c64mar28.jpg Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nILS Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Pin 8 should be Vd - was that a typo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK. Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Here a quick&dirty trick - I think it's the most simple solution in your case: 1) upload the MIDIbox FM application-> this should reformat your BankStick. Wait until it's finished (messages will be print on the LCD) 2) now upload the MIDIbox SID application again -> the BankStick should be reformatted again, but now for the full size Best Regards, Thorsten.

bleeptor Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 I uploaded the MIDIBOX FM app, then uploaded the SID app, but still no patches on my banksticks. I went and bought a new banksticks, uploaded the SID app and after it uploaded it just kept stuck starting up. Same thing has happened since I uploaded the patches for the first time. It seems almost impossible to startup most of the time. I usually wait a few minutes, connect to power again and it starts up. So I did that and it initiated, but yet no patches. I re-uploaded the SID app and then it just got stuck rebooting again(Launching CS). I can't really figure out what's going on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleeptor Posted May 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2012 But hey, I noticed it now reads <empty> on the different patches instead of <no banksticks>. I guess it means now it can notice the banksticks, but still is not able to put the patches into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
