i tried my first TT scene backup to USB last night, without any luck. i’m guessing TT doesn’t like my generic novelty swiss army knife brand thumb drive. can folks share drives they’ve confirmed to be working (preferably with TT v1.1)?

thanks!

Teletype v1.1 Issue with USB flash drive scene read/write Monome

So still no news about the USB issue of not being able to load/save presets? This silly issue has got me very lazy with the Teletype. Waiting for it to get fixed, I’ve given up writing new scripts. Has anyone else with a Teletype been able to get a USB memory stick to work with it? I can’t believe only four or five people have tried it, or care about the issue, if we were going to believe the amount of people who have reported it in these threads. That’s why I’m creating this new thread, to kee…

i’m planning to revise the USB read/write method-- basically do a read/write any time the drive is inserted, with a minimal interface. this will also mean TT will boot up much faster-- because it’s pretty much just waiting around doing nothing.

New event handlers for MSC? e.g. kEventMSCConnect and kEventMSCDisconnect

exactly. just looked at the code for sensible ways to “pause” TT execution while this is happening. pretty much stop the metro and mute the trigger inputs.

Or disconnect some of the event handlers and suspend some of the timers if you want to go lower level.

Definitely a good idea though, it would make it a lot easier to use memory sticks in other firmwares.
