*SOLVED* - Cannot load hemisphere suite into o_C Aug 31, 2022 8:22:15 GMT

I'm having trouble loading the latest o_C hemisphere Suite into the AE Ornament&Crime module:

1. I've downloaded the Teensy Loader (1.52) and HemisphereSuite-1_99Repeating.hex file.
2. I start the Teensy loader and open the hex file. The Teensy loader indicates 25% used.
3. I click the 'Auto' button on the Teensy loader. The Auto button appears 'lit.'
4. I connect the module to my PC (WIN11) using the USB connector. The LED on the Teensy is lit and the module appears to boot up with the screen eventually displaying a single horizontal line at the bottom.
5. I press and hold the button on the Teensy
6. Power on the Ornament&Crime Module from the bus (via MASTER I/O module)
7. Release the button on the Teensy - as shown in the SynthDad video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dg_acylaMZU).
8. Nothing appears to happen.
9. After disconnecting the USB cable and powering on again, I get the original firmware displayed.

Note: If I click on 'Operation', both the Program and Reboot options are greyed-out with Auto on or off.

What am I doing wrong?

Hmm, we are doing it as following:

- I use version 1.55 of Teensy loader; don't know if this makes a big diffence
- Connect the Teensy via USB
- Load the HEX file
- Press short the button on Teensy (don't hold it)
- I assume "Auto" was enabled, but I'm not sure (I didn't made it by myself for a while now, and have no Teensys any more at hand

)
- Also no need to power the module from the AE, while programming it gets it's power from the USB bus.
- The program and reboot buttons should be enabled with the Teensy connected.

Maybe it's a Windows 11 issue? The official guide for Teensy Loader is here: www.pjrc.com/teensy/loader_win10.html

Here my complete set of files (HEX and Teensy Loader): 1drv.ms/u/s!AiNLX43Ton7dkZsVAgnsGnZeG2dWsg?e=OgkBis (PLease copy-paste the link; it doesn't work/is clipped here)

Please let us know the outcome!

Many thanks Robert for taking the time to help with this problem.

I tried again using your referenced loader and hex file with the same result. So, I booted up my laptop to see if I could get the loader to work from there. But, just before connecting the o_C module, I searched GOOGLE for 'o_C teensy loader' to see if there were other instructions or help out there and, voila! I found a solution at MOD WIGGLER (https://modwiggler.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=211661).

I started the Teensy Loader, opened the latest o_C Hemisphere hex file and clicked the 'Auto' button. I then swapped the USB cable I was using to one I'd previously used with my Atruria Keystep (which I knew was always recognised by WIN11). I pressed the button on the Teensy and heard the 'USB connect' sound from WIN11 and saw the Teensy Loader display the program load and reboot messages. Following that the o_C module displayed the ADSR EG app!
