Need assistance backing up A4 C6 Mac

Hi all

I just bought some new sound libraries thanks to the forum.

I am trying to back up the A4 using C6 and Mac 10.8.5

This is the order I do things

plug in USB cable to both ends ( A4 and MacBook Pro)
Open c6 hit receive
A4 Sys dumb set to send - Full dump.

A4 flashes SENDING but the C6 in receive mode isnt getting anything?

I have tried 2 USB cables and I know it did once work because I have a back up from July.

I noticed in C6 config

MIDI in and out are set to A$ but its not using MID.

Anything I have missed?
Thanks

have you checked that on the A4 GLOBAL > MIDI CONFIG > MIDI PORT CONFIG > OUTPUT TO is set to USB?
in c6 config, you may also need to click “Elektron Analog Four” in the input/output device so that it’s marked blue:


it is using MIDI via USB for backups!

Thanks for the reply

Just to be clear I set the output to MIDI as there is no USB oprtion?

A4 GLOBAL > MIDI CONFIG > MIDI PORT CONFIG > OUTPUT TO is set to USB?

Ah I got you now :slight_smile:

Thanks. Better write this down so I remember for next time.
