USB Memory Stick for ME-1

What is the preferred/recommended USB memory stick for compatibility with ME-1? I’ve tried a couple off brand USB sticks that are formatted FAT32 but not having any luck getting ME-1 to recognized I have any USB stick inserted. Can’t backup config or update firmware.

TIA.

Even though I’ve set up a few I have never backed up an ME1 to USB.

Try formatting the USB stick in the mixer first.

I have found all versions of the Kingston Data Travel series USB sticks work
in any Allen Heath mixer old or new I have used them in.
Try one of those, take it straight out of the package and plug it into the ME.

@Aaroj

The stick to use is one that works.

Many, NOT ALL, Kingston data travellers will work and that is your best chance these days.

I have tried all available formatting of 256MB thumb drive will no luck!! I wonder if these USB ports on the ME have ever worked? I have 10 of these ME-1 mixers and all of them freeze up when storing presets to the USB. ALLEN & HEATH!!! PLEASE PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

The only fix is to find a working usb memory stick.

USB2 improves your odds, else like @MikeC the Kingston Data Travellers have the best odds of working after a usb2 device.
