I have an Octatrack – long out of warranty – that is neither sending nor receiving audio. I am unable to play samples through the main or cue outs from CF card nor record audio to buffers through inputs A-D. The headphone jack is also silent. I ran the device in test mode and received a “battery fail” status, and with the LEDs lit on MIDI trigs 11 and 12. The Record LEDs are also always lit.
Anyone encounter this issue? I am assuming this is a battery related issue. If so, has anyone serviced the battery themselves?
Open a support ticket. I remember reading (in the manual, I think) that the internal battery needs replacing about every six years, though some may make it longer?
Replacing the batteries (there are two of the same type stacked, CR2450 iirc) isn’t very difficult; I did it on mine an age ago after getting the “Battery Low” message on start.
There’s a few threads on here that detail the process; Battery LOW for example.
hey there guys , a while a go my octatrack started to show wile starting mode’ the msg “low battery” meanwhile a page that i should insert date( day/ year) appears. anyone knows whats going on? what shoud i do? should i replace the battery where is it ? do i have to open it to get it changed ???
