if you press k2 on the SELECT/SYSTEM/SLEEP screen, does it say 201029?

if not and if UPDATE says you’re up to date, hold k1 and press k3 on UPDATE to refresh and populate the 201029 release

next person with a shield who updates: please open maiden when you run the update so you can capture the status of the update.

note that if your shield doesn’t boot, you can still access all of your files by inserting your sd card into your computer and looking at the rootfs drive under /home/we/

Thank you very much
Ok so this is weirder - went again to update with your instructions, previously it said it was 2310 but when I did you button combo it said 2310 available so I chose that and it updated. It hung on the reboot screen but thankfully has rebooted

Slight update - still can’t record to tape and then .json files are still visible

I haven’t got time right now but I’ll do it connected to maiden when I try the 2910

I’m having a world of weird here

Ok so I seem to be in a loop of some kind - i updated again to 2310 and it came up with 0 fw in the screen where your ip and fw are and wouldn’t boot into any apps but did show the splash screeens and instructions for them

Sooo maiden it is - went to maiden and attempted the install and it’s maiden - it checks GitHub and keeps referring to /norns/releases/download/2.4.4/fates201023.sha256
Then another file with all the same but with tgz at the end

So presently I can now play all apps that I’ve tested, still showing .json files and I can’t record to tape (it will play the audio though)

link has been corrected, here it is again: https://github.com/monome/norns-image/releases/download/201029/norns201029-shield.zip

@Dogma, sounds like something is definitely strange with your shield software – can you confirm if you have a fates or any supplemental software like ORAC or sidekick?

ah, this update + the images posted above are for norns and norns shield only – fates has its own update cycle, repository, and images. more info here: Fates - a DIY norns DAC board for Raspberry Pi

Really sorry for wasting your time

unsure, but perhaps there’s some additional management @okyeron handles to make the magic happen :slight_smile:

i’m updated and things seem to be working well!

i love the waveform visualization - it is so wonderful on this little screen. i can’t wait to add it into some scripts!

i started playing around with the waveform ui and i’m having a little issue implementing a zoom. basically i’m pretty sure i’m using the right set points but the waveform visualizes a lot of what i think shouldn’t be in the zoomed-in window:

its 100% possible i messed up the code but in any case i need some help (pinging @csboling if you have time). here is the relevant code:

that repo should be functional (just turn E2/E3 to the right to get it to work and then K2 to zoom in/out)

@tehn

hey ya!
ok…i just updated the shield norns!

  • started with a flash of: norns200106-shield.img
  • ran the SYSTEM > UPDATE
  • stuck on the screen “shutting down” for a long time
  • unplugged it (wasn’t sure if it was stuck or if that was normal behavior on a shield norns. i guess they just don’t actually shut down all the way)
  • powered up and booting
  • looks like i’m on 201029
  • :stuck_out_tongue:

no worries about any lost files.
i normally back up all of the norns but the shield norns is only being used as an effect box so there really wasn’t anything in there to lose. heh!

thanks so much for the help!

now to go and update the rest of the horde.

small update…
i was installing all the scripts and one kept hanging on me: norns/circle/01 drone in three worlds

i left it “installing” for quite a while and then finally hit the “X” on the pop up in maiden.

looked back over at the shield and the screen was off.
pushed K1.
i had maiden still open and this is what i got when it woke up:

Summary

(process:21674): GLib-GIO-WARNING **: /build/glib2.0-F5w919/glib2.0-2.50.3/./gio/gdbusobjectmanagerclient.c:1585: Processing InterfaceRemoved signal for path /org/freedesktop/NetworkManager/AccessPoint/23 but no object proxy exists

not sure what that is all about.

Thanks for the update. Crow is back up running and the midi devices are no longer duplicated. I egt another strange behaviour though. My Grid gets unresponsive and after disconnecting / connecting Norns freezes. This happened two times. Anyone else having trouble with Grid?

#74

just replying to myself: lack of sleep made me dumb. i can see now my mistake: the rendering should be with a startpoint and a duration and not an endpoint. i just had to read the docs more carefully.

render_buffer (ch, start, dur, samples)

everything works for me now. a new script is in progress!

Great, glad you got it sorted out! If it’s helpful I wrote a little script for (mono only) waveform debugging that I used to help me develop and verify these new softcut features. It has basic zoom / jog / play / record controls.
