Korg Monotribe Version 2 (1 of 5): How to Video

[TheSocialistKane]

For those that are using Windows 7, left click the speaker icon in the notification area and left click 'Mixer.' Mute 'System Sounds' and, if needed, adjust volume to 100%. Open WMP, adjust volume to 100% and play the update file. Make sure repeat isn't on. I had to mess with the volume control until I figured just crank it all the way up. Worked like a charm. :)

@TheSocialistKane Tried that, absolutely no variables of volume for WMP/system sounds provides anything more than a failure ten seconds into it.

Whoa. That is cool.

It's just... I want to do this, but is there a way to salvage the Monotribe if the update fails?

[Longuncattr]

@Longuncattr Did the update, it went through without a hitch. After reading more about what the Monotribe does internally during the update, it turns out I had nothing to worry about if the update had failed; the checksum would be wrong and the unit simply wouldn't flash the firmware.

It works until the file finished playing, my monotribe keeps on flickering, and doesnt stop after the wav file is ended?

[Naitsirk1313]

@Kaputnik24 I had the same problem, until I fed it volume loud enough to blow up my house.

[Kaputnik24]

@Naitsirk1313 Haha okay, i will try it again, connect it to my mixer..



[Kaputnik24]

@Naitsirk1313 Did try it, folume all the way to the max, and in between..really looks my input is just messed up.

@megabot80 got the mp4 too, was not working on my win 7 laptop. I did get it to work on an older XP desktop though so the file works.

[megabot80]
