I am having the worst damb time trying to get the OS upgrade into my SuperN. I
know that I have the midi connection right, I have the S/N prepped properly and I have the midi file in my sequencer
PLAYING...And the S/N justs sits there saying "waiting for OS update". Do I have to turn down the sequencer's tempo or is it Emagic's sequencers that just dont work with SuperNovas. Why does it have to be so tough to get all these system perks. Fellas, SAVE ME!!!!!!

Dude yer a dumb ass!!!You just unplug the power cable from the back of the Super Nova(while connected to the wall socket)Hold Down "global" "Part Edit 8
and "latch" and Stick the loose end of the power cord IN YOUR MOUTH. It will remedy and issues you might be having with the Super Nova.

I don't have the manual in front of me and I don't remember how I did it. Big help huh? I do remember that I couldn't get Cakewalk to do it twice but SoundDiver worked for me immediately both times. You're not stupid. I seem to remember something about global and part 8 as our friend mentioned above, but I'm not sure dude. Comb the manual.

Tired, friends ? Please reread Mike's question and you'll see that his Supernova actually sais "Waiting for O/S update"... so I'm pretty sure he found the magic part button. So, to help with the original question: If you have a MIDI interface with traffic LED's: Does Logic transmit SysEx data ? If not, check its preferences. Which O/S are you running, which MIDI interface do you have ?

Funny how sometimes the obvious just goes right by unnoticed.

I am trying to perform the upgrade on a windows based system. My interface, the Creative Labs AWE 64 Gold , is set to transmit SysEx data through My Emagic
Logic program. I have turned my sequecer's tepmo down to 80 BPMs. Now the only thing left to happen is my
Supernova needs to receive the new OS.

What are you talking about???? Another TRICK question? What is that supposed to mean. I didn't ask a second question.
I am just praying for tips!

Mike,

If this is not too complicated to do, try disconnecting _everything_ else you may have connected via MIDI _except_ the SN, then verify that Logic is outputting to the same MIDI channel the Supernova is receiving on (you can do this in non-sysex mode, just do some sequencing from Logic to the SN and see if the SN is responding), _then_ try going into boot-up/waiting for OS mode connect Logic (boot up the SN _first_, _then_ launch Logic) and see if you can transmit properly.

Let me know if this gets you anywhere.

Very sorry Mike. I was following through on my previous mistake. Thought you were playing off of it. I wish I knew the answer, but unfortunately I don't. I hope Realtrance has it for you. If not, you'll find it.
