To upgrade to version 3.1.xxx from 3.98 you first need to install the
bootloader update.
That will change the Sysex ID used for the dumps to the official Sequentix
ID.

You'll find the necessary files in the Yahoo files section, Bootloader
folder -
p3-bootloader-v3.1-T89.syx and p3-bootloader-v3.1-T89.txt

I'd guess it's a problem with the data file - perhaps it was  
corrupted when you downloaded it?

I use Macs as well - Max/MSP has a Standard MIDI File playing object,  
so I just lobbed the SMF dump into that...

Colin and folks;

Bad Data whatever I do...  I even changed the midi cable....

I got a midisport 8X8 and the P3... I don´t have installed logic now.. just trying with sysex 
library 1.1... always bad data..

My P3 is a kit made early version as Colin knows..

Any Help please?

Thanks;

Hans

If it wont accept p3-bootloader-v3.1-T89.syx make sure you haven't got a
MIDI loop back to the P3.
Its own ACK message will cause a BAD DATA, as it shouldn't see it coming
back.

I thought about that.. I happen to me some years ago..

I just can´t remember how can I know or how can I solve it.. 

I got no midi out cable on the P3... and just one cable from the midispost 8X8.. 

Thanks

There's a small possibility your MIDI input stage is marginal, and large
blocks of data don't work.
You could check that by doing a dump of your pattern data, and seeing if it
can load back in without showing any errors.

Have you checked for a MIDI feedback loop?  Maybe the P3 is echoing back to 
the MIDI interface or vice-versa.

Hi;

I have reminded how the P3 worked after two years stopped...

But I can´t get any tie effect with the 13 lenght thing..

May I got some further explanation please?

Thanks;

Hans

A length of 13 tells P3 to hold the note on a step until the next active
step comes along.
It holds the note over any inactive steps between the length 13 note and the
next active step.

The TIE setting still works as before - if TIE is active on a step, the note
on that step will overlap the following note.
That is, the note-off for a tied step is not sent until after the note-on
for the following step.
With length = 13, a TIEd note will still overlap the following note, though
that note may be several steps later.

.... that the P3 doesn't just do "aeolian". <G>

It could be around 15Mb I think. Told you it was self-indulgent. Very 
high quality MP3(tm). Song only lasts 16 seconds too. Amazing technology 
when you think about it. But I shan't and you can't make me. And to 
answer your question yes and yes.

A little self-indulgent noodle, warts 'n' all.

Wooooooo
