Memory issue

Memory issue

25 Nov 2007, 08:18
I had some problems with my GT. Last week when I started it most of my user patches were not here, but my user tones were still there. I had to re-create them (not too hard since the big work is on tones, not on patches). Last friday on bootup my patches were in place but the tones lacked !

As I didn't want to program them one more time, I mounted the V-Synth GT on my computer via usb, and there I saw that the tones were at their place, but with errors in them (I couldn't copy them to my local hard drive). A checkdisk fixed the V-Synth's internal project, but one of the tones (using 2.0kb of memory instead of 5.4kb for other tones) seemed to block the entire loading process. After deleting this particular tone, everything was ok again and I recovered all my patches and tones.

Just a suggestion: I back my work up whenever I add something to the project. Whenever there is a problem, I do a factory reset or re-format the external card or USB drive and place the projects there again.

That's what I will do know, but it's a bit disapointing from a brand new machine : I've been using synths for fifteen years and this is the first time my work disappears without any reason.
