hbannis Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 i am trying to update a hammond sk1, and when i put the usb drive in, the display went blank, and won't return. I am checking to see if anyone else has had this problem, and hopefully a fix. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMcS Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 What version OS is in the SK-1 now? There are 2 types of memory that USB drives can be made with. Early SKs were not compatible with one of them. That was resolved in one of the updates. There is more information about that in the SK-1 Tips and Tricks topic. What brand and size USB drive do you have? A small size drive from a well known mfgr. may work best. If you take the drive out and power on what happens? If you power off, insert the drive and then power on what happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hbannis Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'm afraid to say I don't know which version it has. I received the SK1 from Hammond this past year, and was at namm last week, and Scott Mays informed me I could upgrade it, so I followed the directions from webpage. I have tried turning it off and on, with, and without the drive, with no luck. The display screen lights up, but nothing on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMcS Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Scroll up through the menu to Page E and arrow over to System. (Pg.104 in the new version of the manual, close to that in the old version) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
