PiFromBRC Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Issue: Turned on Helix and scribble strips got all wonky. 1: Strips were either blank or way out of order (eg Bank was on FS8, Tap on FS2) 2: Strips were doing the Fade In/Out of Death 3: Labels were superimposing and switching on individual strips. I did a FS9/10 reset and tried to import my slaved-upon User setlists 1: Several of my saved and imported presets were blank. 2: All of them were contiguous. I keep blank 'New Preset' patches in every set of 4 for future tweaks. 3: Reimports of custom presets were blank or several iterations earlier I figured out that I can drag new presets in to place. Hence the edit of this post. Question: 1: How can I straight up DELETE a preset off the unit so I can start from scratch? Not a happy Pi right now :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaminjimlp Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 did you try reloading the 1,06 firmware? delete all the blocks and start over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 You 'delete' a preset by copying another preset over it. Use the New Preset to start from scratch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fledisma Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Issue: Question: 1: How can I straight up DELETE a preset off the unit so I can start from scratch? Not a happy Pi right now :( The way I do it is to open any empty preset, make no changes to it and save it to the preset location that you want to delete. Hope this helps!

BINGEWOOD Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 The Helix App is at 1.03, the fw is at 1.06. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean 1.06. Yes. The Helix App is at 1.03, the fw is at 1.06. As BINGEWOOD pointed out the latest firmware and Helix App have different version numbers. The pattern so far has been that if you do not have the latest Helix App version after a firmware upgrade, you may/will have problems saving and restoring presets. This is probably working as designed, new firmware updates may require new versions of the Helix App. I always check for the latest Helix App when doing a firmware upgrade.

Well...ignorant at least. I'll check it later. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeOK Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 FWIW, I tried to upgrade to the 1.06 firmware with the 1.02 app and it did not go well at all. Failed in fact. The Helix indicated that the update failed. Weh I rebooted the Helix, the welcome screen showed firmware 1.06 but then crashed; the Helix tried to reperform the update--which it could never complete. It was a brick. I installed the 1.03 app and tried the upgrade again and it worked. Don't know if this is your issue, but I was in a panic for a short time...

PiFromBRC Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 I marked this solved, but did open a ticket because the scribble strip issue still has me a little freaked out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
