Another SD1 user just mailed me, telling his SD1 is working fine after a new OS4.0b reload.

Good news for other users ?!
Please write your experiences on this forum or directly to me.

I remember one (but perhaps important) fact of my SD1 after my first attempt to upgrade to OS4.0b : The rave-sound (pad group) did not sound OK because the sample was not correctly looped.... the end was not well fitted to the beginning.
Mr. Sandro sent me a fix, but I forgot to use it because I never use the sound.
Please check your RAVE !

Friends.

I have been reading your posts with regards to the note drop out but I am very glad indeed that Roel did make a break through.

Looking back at some of the variation we did between OS 3.0c and 4.0, we instead INCREASED the number of polyphony and so since this problem was brought up on the forum, I have been trying to reconstruct the problem on the keyboard and failed (even when I use the specific examples mentioned above). It's only when I say press 8-9 keys using heavily-noted program voices (like STRINGS) that I do notice some drop out.

Given the situation above, I would advise that all who are experiencing this reload the OS4.0 a/b - sometimes during download, it is possible that some of the binary files in the OS were mis-transfered. Hopefully on the 2nd try, this doesn't happen.

Thanks,

AJ

Roel,
where the heck did you find the energy and will to test the impossible!?
This is great news. If it is errors in download as A.J. suggests, than it seems like problem is gone

Roel,

I had already made this installation at least some twice !!!
Saturday I did again an OS4.0b´s complete download and install again all the files at folder Standard ….
After a new reload (OS3.0b to Os4.0b) my SD1 is working fine,even using the harmony function.

That is a mistery of computer programs.

I work in the computer world, and when you are create an new version of a software, you must create a program to update old versions... I think there is a bug in the Update in the SD1 from the 3.0 to 4.0a, and the 4.0b don't fix this bug (if you only install the upgrade). You must reinstall the 4.0b entierely with all disks...
This is just a supposition... I m not sure ...

Voilà.

After I have done that, my SD1 work´s fine.

DAN2000 :
You probably are very right !!
I'm in computing too and that is why I don't think errors occurred in file transfers either.
If they would have happened there is NO chance at all it would cause the same 'defects' with similar symptoms in these different SD1's.

It's great to read that you all 'repaired' your SD1's !
