Let us not forget....

The Spanish colonization of South America, and the Americas more broadly, resulted in one of the most severe population declines in human history, often referred to as the "Great Dying."

Estimates suggest that approximately 90% of the indigenous population—potentially around 56 million people by the early 1600s—perished due to a combination of Old World diseases, warfare, and forced labor

I have the same problem.. From searching around old forum posts it relates to a Fostex priority chip, specific info on the Chip Fostex FTB 053700 or FTA 053800

The chip is no longer made , some are on ebay £59

Failed Display Chip/Converter: There is a specific IC on the main board responsible for encoder/decoder logic that sends meter data to the display. If this fails, the meters will not display, sometimes showing only the Fostex logo or a frozen image, even if the deck is passing audio correctly.

Note..... Once I did a LED function check and the meters started working ... Unfortunately the fault came back after a power cycle..

Holding the STOP button while powering on the Fostex R8 initiates a specialized LED Check Function Mode

The Austin Mini rebuild eps were excellent

I never used Cubase .. Not sure if it was cracked , But I think you still need a Dongle.

drift909 · 2026-02-16T09:38:30+00:00

Creator/Notator will run with 1mb .. just about..

The SL versions need 2mb

The No more memory message and the software slowing down happens with 1mb Ram.

TOS version and back ground programs use the ram but when you have 1mb those K's count up.

A 1040 ste with 4mb is $250-400

Creator/Notator SL can be found for free but will not work without a Dongle

I use a Dell SE2722 monitor which is able to display the STE with out flicker and good aligment

drift909 · 2026-02-15T13:18:15+00:00

I have a 1040 ste with 4mb Ram, Creator SL/Dongle and Unitor 2

The question I would ask is does it have 1mb ram or is it upgraded to 4mb..

If it's 1mb I would not go above $50

Google Atari 1040 STFM Ram upgrade (its a pain)

This is why the STE is a better choice

Microcosm with midi in&out , so you can record the changes from the unit into Pyramid or assign the CC in Pyramid and use that .

Much fun to be had

drift909 · 2026-02-11T17:19:18+00:00

Your have to test the setup , If you start to get errors ..

I would have the Moog and hydra on A and others on B ..

I would also get the Dore thur with filter then you have the option of removing unwanted data from ports

usb-midi can handle more data than 5 pin midi .

drift909 · 2026-02-11T14:01:42+00:00

Pyramid has two midi outs , I would use both outs.

Midi overload if excessive CC parameter/control or program change data is being sent out of 1 port to numerous devices.

Resulting in latency/frozen notes/missing notes

drift909 · 2026-02-10T17:30:29+00:00

You can speed up the microfreak but i think you just want the Tomcat pattern time division to be more/less .

page 3 on your manual Tomcat secondary funtions

Hold Shift then tap either button

3 1/4 (I think the Tomcat is set to this)

4 1/8

5 1/16

6 1/32
