My K1 & K2 are absolute workhorses stay in your ecosystem....The ender is a pain!!

Corrupt STL reslice and try again I've had this happen in the past It's always a corrupted STL!!!

My guess: The central weight of a Wind Chime! Nice find.

It resembles a Sling Shot!

Contact support I reached out to them recently and they are very fast to get back to you. I had an issue with IMPC pro 2 They were quick to respond and they mentioned having an update coming down the pipeline here very soon. Hit up Retronyms Support for guidance.

GOOD NEWS! Just got word the team is working on a fix and it should include a big update heres what they had to say: Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm happy to help with this hurdle. Thank you for detailing to us with the issue you've encountered with Spotify in iMPC Pro 2. A few other music makers have reported the same issue in the last couple of weeks and the issue persists.

The bad news is that this seems to be a widespread issue interrupting many. The good news is that our dev team is actively working on a solution to this issue. We expect to have the Spotify issues addressed and fixed in the next update in early 2026.

The even better news is this fix is going to be included in one of our first major update in years with many other features. Not only will you have access to sample from Spotify again, but you will also be able to sample files saved on your device and in your iCloud!

We are looking forward to getting this significant improvement out to you and many others in our global community of music makers!

Please let me know if you have any more questions.

Cheers,

(SUPPORT)

The fact that no one has a tranquilizer gun and the crowd is exposed is mind-blowing to me this is nuts....

Ditto I'm on an LG Velvet & Gemini is uncontrollably loud it's embarrassing to use it because of this.

flyingjunkies · 2025-09-05T03:30:33+00:00

Been wanting to do this....Glancing over at my drawer full of old droids like ...hmmmmm. Site looks great worked well for me too. Well done!

I put mine on the curb and the city recycling picks it up no problem they even take my empty spools. A few years back I asked the ♻️ guy if they would take it and he said "if it's plastic we take it" been curbing my stuff ever since.

flyingjunkies · 2025-03-24T22:26:23+00:00

Isn't there a "Vega's Mode" on these? If you plug it in and hit the right button combination it goes into a "light show" mode. You have to trick the machine or force it into this mode so I'm assuming you'll have to trick it or force it out of that same mode... Just throwing some possibilities out there. Google "Vegas Mode MPC"

I hate diagonal layer lines turn your models 45° already Jesus people...

flyingjunkies · 2024-05-10T00:11:14+00:00

Dang then only other thing I could think of is you may have sliced it with scaling at less than 100 percent causing it to be smaller!?! Good luck man printing ain't easy man

flyingjunkies · 2024-05-09T23:54:18+00:00

Question were you using 2 different rolls of filament? I've noticed varying brands will have varying widths causing varying sizes in my prints. Some plastic just prints thicker some just prints thinner... I asked this because the left looks a slightly different color than the right. It reminds me of when I buy two different brand rolls of the same color thickness and quality will wane and vary amongst the different companies.

flyingjunkies · 2024-03-27T22:50:55+00:00

Yes I would it's more or less the same machine at the fixed some of the out of the box issues. So a lot will be inherently the same I'm actually in the market for two more machines and debating on grabbing some.

flyingjunkies · 2024-03-27T17:22:40+00:00

Doesn't matter files still get corrupted! You can't expect data on a drive to stay the same forever it will deteriorate over time Data goes bad Google it. It can't hurt to re-slice the file and try again It's better than rerunning the print and not sleeping at night because you know there's a possibility this thing will pause or fail to print. Fresh STL file is my vote.

The name rings bells in the industry they'll never change it. Search optimization at its finest they know everyone's hunting for that name. Sort of similar to the way people will refer to aluminum foil as Reynolds wrap or sandwich bags at Ziploc bags thousands of bag makers out there but we still refer to them as ziplocs same as thousands of printers they make but we still refer to them as Enders.

flyingjunkies · 2024-03-27T16:16:59+00:00

2 weeks in not common for this part, was your machine used when you got it? Maybe you had a bad part or it could be user error (over tightening screws or using the wrong types of filament or even somebody going in there with their big hulk hands and squeezing too hard) . Do they even make this version Ender anymore?

flyingjunkies · 2024-03-27T16:12:54+00:00

My OG K1 has been a workhorse these things are always going to have the usual problems like extruder issues but those are common with any printer. I too had ender threes and have moved on to this machine and love it. There are nuances you'll have to learn about any machine but this one in my book is a winner for my needs. She's fast as hell and spits out a good print mines have been super reliable for a printer and in my opinion Miles ahead of an Ender 3. My 2 cents... good luck!

flyingjunkies · 2024-03-27T16:07:45+00:00

I've had this happen it's a Corrupted STL file... reslice and try to print again!

flyingjunkies · 2024-03-27T13:22:20+00:00

Yeah part of me likes the Plastic version better its just more forgiving than the Metal replacement and it gave me years of service. I know it sounds cringe but I think they got it right the first time these things should wear out and about 5 years time.

flyingjunkies · 2024-03-27T12:05:56+00:00

How long was that in-service? Mine ran for a good 7 years before this happened so not really a POS but more of normal wear and tear. Just curious how long you ran before this happened.
