Re: [elektron] Crashing Sidsation

2006-05-16 by Joseph Melnyk

steven,
this happened to my first sidstation.  the power connection was bad  
or weak
or something.  just moving it slightly would reset the machine and lose
all the memory in it.  i also did that once by sending it a control  
change
message higher than 99 (that gave me weird characters on the screen
and corrupted the memory).

i'd say talk to elektron about it.  it may need to be repaired.
