[A6] SRAM problems

[Kyle Jarger]

Hi List and Yannis,
 
I have a similar problem too, with a new PreTec 2MB card (I don't have any other cards, so I have no idea if my A6 could use other cards successfully).  In my case it seemed to not save to the card even though I never unplugged it from the slot or turned the unit off.  I haven't really had a chance to play with it and figure out the behavior, but I did follow the steps in the manual and I am familiar with the use of PCMCIA and Smartmedia cards.  All I can say for now is that I did what I thought would initialize and place a memory bank on the card, and later when I accessed the card I was told it was not initialized.  Could it be that our OS's are out of date?  Mine is 1.40.02.  The card is seen by the A6 upon boot-up (it flashes on the display that the card is there, and is 2M in size).  Someone who was over visiting noticed that my A6 seemed to take a much longer time than his to boot-up and get going; maybe that has something to do with it.  Any assistance from the list would be much appreciated.
 
Regards,
 
Kyle Jarger

Hi list,

I have recently bought a Pretec SRAM card (2MB), initialized it, have chosen to put both Programs and Mixes. However, every time I switch off the Andromeda or unplug the card and then plug it again I keep getting a message that my card is not initialized! What's wrong? Any suggestions before I buy a new battery?

Other than that, can anyone describe how to send/receive patches via sysex with MIDI-Ox. I have set it up properly, MIDI ports and everything, have checked the A6 for relevant parameters to be on and no luck. :-( When I load a sysex how does MIDI-Ox know where to send it?

Thanx in advance.

Yannis
