Patch: No display after first upload

Getting Started
1

I just got my Patch out of the box and wanted to upload my first code with the USB Programmer. The Programmer told me:
“Wrote 53868 bytes
Manifesting new firmware
Done!”

But now the display is dead and I don’t get any sound out of the patch. The only sign of life is the LED on the seed. Btw, that never started nor stopped blinking like it is foretold in the Wiki.

Tried some other code als well, no change there.
What do I do now?

Which example program did you upload?

It’s possible that the firmware you uploaded doesn’t use the display.

I tried PluckEcho, Patch3Test and vco in that order.

The versions of those examples on the programmer don’t use the display. This should be updated soon. Try flashing QuadMixer in the meantime.

Hi, similar problem here. is my first day with Daisy patch. i followed the Daisy web programmer. After installation seems everything is ok but machine is locked. I can’t see anything in the screen (completly black) and just the reset light on the left side is on. if i try to reboot it responds to me and I can connect to web programmer, but after installation have always same problem. if any helps really thanks

Hi @embryonaler, sorry to hear you’re having some issues. Which example did you flash?
Maybe Noise would be a good one to start with.

Is your eurorack case powered on? The daisy can be powered over USB, but it won’t power the whole module, so the oled won’t work. You can use the USB with your case powered on no problem.

If that doesn’t work we can go through some other troubleshooting steps.

Thanks everyone for your support…i’m new to this and i realize maybe i shouldn’t give up, so i saw this video on how to upload a program. so instead of clicking on Flash Blink, i was suppose to click on the program and now it works…My 1st upload was the Multi-Delay…This is an awesome Module…i absolutely appreciate the work that went into this Technology.
