Hello everyone
I just recieved a used minimax asb yesterday (which I probably overpayed a little for, but thats another story). Played around with it a bit - and loved the sound and especially the feel... I couldn't run the remote software on my Mac, so ran on a PC. Seeing the box was running v. 1.02 i found the 2.0 firmware, saw the keycode in the readme - and the rest is (catastrophic) history... After 20mins of use, my minimax just stands there, blinking at me:

"E1"

I thought that the keycode was generic - and if not, the sw would not be installed, but, alas... After reading this forum, I see that I've made an almost classic error.

I've written support at soniccore with the box's serial, and also 'Ralph' - but no one is responding... (off course, it's summer, so things might have slowed down in Germany., ).

Does anybody here have any ideas at what I can do?? I'm devasted over having jst had 20mins with this very promising baby....

(also, i've figured out a wy to hack the remote software to run with a few glitches on mac osx - but thats another story...)

Crossing fingers for good hints or solutioms....

first, don't worry.

be patient. Ralf has many emails to slog through and Creamware made the synth, not Sonic|Core. he'll get the keyfile to you, but it'll take a minute.

you shouldn't write multiple emails, though. it's makes the list of emails bigger. if you don't hear anything by monday evening(German time) you might make the request again, but i don't think you'll need to.

nope, no holiday at all for Ralf(good thing he loves Scope)....

Thank you for your calming words

I'll spend the weekend hoping that someone from soniccore will have the time to help me out next week. Nothing has happened yet...


have a great weekend.

I got the code today from Ralf

...and all is peachy

My box still says that it's v. 102 - but I guess its "codespeak" for 2.0? (Or??)

if the controls aren't "steppy", then you have the correct firmware.

congrats on getting it going.
