Yes, another EMS instalation thread, sorry chaps .
My backpack got stolen after a gig this weekend, including a Drag n Derp and an EMS (http://www.sadtrombone.com/). All in all about 300 euros worth of gear, because luckily I don't use any Korgs, pedals, laptops, or anything. So as far as a performer/musician getting robbed goes, I'm on the luckier side.
I have some spare time on my hands right now, so I'm getting my two spare EMS carts from 2012 set up.
I've used 2xaa's tutorial for the EMS installation. That video is great, I've been doing that installation wrong for months and months on end.
At this point, I'm pretty close to actually flashing those empty carts
I have a few questions still, because it's soooo close, but not yet working.
1) Are the EMS drivers, linked on Kitsch' site the most recent ones?
They're from 2010, and 2010 forums talk about upgrading a lot. I can't find any newer EMS systems.
2) Does the error code give any real info?
Transferring works, until the load bar is 99% Green, the device is disconnected, and an Error Code 31 appears. http://gbatemp.net/threads/ems-gb-usb-s
em.318543/ mentions the possibilities, but with all those options, I don't think you need another error code.
3) Does Test Mode have to be active to install the drivers AND use BG_USB, or only to install the drivers?
If I disable test mode with dseo13b and restart the pc, BG_USB won't find any connected devices. The Link Cable will show in Device Manager (with a yellow alert sign) , but not in my system tray icons, and BG_USB will show "device disconnected".
4) Is cable size still an issue?
The hubs and the giant cable are bugging me.
Extra info: I have a 64 bit, WIN7, with nvidia, and ASUS, all my usb ports are hubs.
Thanks for bearing with me.
