13.8 SYSTEM
The System menu contains USB CONFIG, OS UPGRADE, DRIVE, CALIBRATION and VERIFY
FACTORY SAMPLES options for the Analog Rytm.
13.8.1 USB CONFIG
To use the Analog Rytm as an Overbridge device (see “OVERBRIDGE” on page 11), you must set it to
Overbridge mode. Do so by selecting the OVERBRIDGE MODE menu item and ticking the box by press-
ing
[YES/SAVE]
.
Should you, for some reason, wish to disable the Overbridge integration functionality, select the item
called USB-MIDI ONLY and press
[YES/SAVE]
.
13.8.2 OS UPGRADE
This menu option is used when upgrading Analog Rytm OS. To send the OS syx file, use our free SysEx
utility software C6. The OS syx file and the C6 software can be downloaded from the Elektron website.
Press
[YES/SAVE]
to make Analog Rytm start listening for incoming OS SysEx data.
If you wish to cancel the waiting state, press
[NO/RELOAD]
.
For the transfer to be possible, the device sending the OS syx-file must be connected to either the MIDI
IN or USB port of Analog Rytm.
Please note that the Analog Rytm will not appear as an icon on your computer desktop.
On your computer, download the OS syx file, open the C6 software. Click “Configure” and select Elek-
tron Analog Rytm for MIDI In as well as MIDI Out. Drag the syx file to the C6 main window, then highlight
it by pointing and clicking on it with the mouse pointer. Point and click on the “send” button in the top left
corner of the C6 window.
When receiving the OS, a progress bar will be visible on the Analog Rytm LCD screen. Once the bar has
been filled, the message “ERASING FLASH” will be shown on the screen, shortly followed by the mes-
sage “WRITING FLASH”. This takes a short while. When this process is successfully completed, the OS
is updated and the unit reboots.
If the Analog Rytm is receiving the OS upgrade through the MIDI ports, use the
Elektron TM-1 USB MIDI interface for up to 10x transfer speeds.
13.8.3 DRIVE
You have the possibility to erase all content of the +Drive. Once you have made your choices using the
[LEFT]
or
[RIGHT]
arrow keys and confirmed by pressing
[YES/SAVE]
, a prompt will appear asking if
the formatting procedure should be executed. Press
[YES/SAVE]
to proceed with the formatting.
