Hello all, first post here. I ran into the troubles in this thread, but found a new USB drive that works with the ME1 out of the package. This has been confirmed with two identical drives, one new and one formatted on a Win10 machine. I was able to upgrade the firmware and save configurations with no problem. If you just want to go out and buy a drive that just works, you might try this one.
Samsung MUF-32AB FIT Plus 32gb
I’m having the same problem with our ME1’s. We’re on firmware 1.17, and I can’t get them to recognize any of the drives I have on hand. I’ve tried 32GB and 1GB FAT32 drives both as-is, wiped, and with an empty folder named “ME1.” I’m trying to copy the config over to an ME1 we recently got back from warranty.
The 32GB drives aren’t recognized at all, and the 1GB drive is recognized, but the ME freezes whenever I try to save anything to it (preset or congig).
This is really frustrating, especially since this has clearly been an issue for many firmwares and hasn’t been addressed by A&H, even though it sounds like the solution is in-hand with the QU software.
My USB works well in importing my configurations to 6 ME1s.
However, when I inserted into the 7th one, the mixer just freezes.
Tried hard reset several times but it still didn’t work. Decided to configure manually.
Anyone has similar experience?
