I have an Octatrack that was working fine until now. All of a sudden when I boot the machine it freezes completely and no button will operate. I am running the latest OS 1.25H. Prior to this problem, I performed 2 file transfers via usb. I checked the CF card and could not get it to work with an external CF card reader. I checked the pins of the CF reader in the Octatrack, they look fine. I have hardly ever taken the card out and when I have taken the card out, I did so very carefully. I have tried to use another blank CF card formatted to FAT and the Octatrack also freezes on boot up. When I boot the Octatrack without a CF card it seems to be fine and it is “operational” i.e. the sequencer works, all menus are accessible and all Function button combinations work. The moment the CF card is inserted it freezes. I purchased this machine to finish projects and I am now stuck and cannot do anything. What went wrong? How can the machine change the behaviour from one minute to the next without anything else happening except powering it up or powering it down (always after the Project save was completed!) I am very disappointed and I find this hard to believe. Does anyone have any similar experience or tips to correct this issue?

You should ask support and also have a look through these threads for possible solutions / explanations
I closed this thread because you’d already started the enquiry on an existing thread on the exact same issue. It may help if you provide more details on that thread about the exact operations you were doing and on which platform prior to the Card becoming unresponsive
