Super confusing activity of CF Card?

Hey all, i’ve only had my OT Mk2 for a couple weeks now, and i’m super confused about how it’s handling data on the CF card, and if I really only have 500mb left. Looked through the manual and past threads and didn’t see anything that clarified this.

I’m using the 32gb octacard that came with the octatrack, and so far have removed some of the factory sounds I didn’t think I would use, and added some drum breaks (about 7gb of breaks). On my computer my card is showing that it’s almost full, even though logically I should be absolutely nowhere near 32gb. Disk Utility shows the card as 32gb, but there’s a child mount that’s only 15gb that says it’s almost full, and that’s the one I have access to from USB disk mode. attached some pictures for clarity




also: It said it was almost full earlier today, before I deleted about 3gb of the factory loops. deleting those seemingly created no more space.

That elektron branded CF card is well known to be unreliable at best.

Get yourself a sandisk one.

Im still using the same 16gb sandisk CF card that came in my MK1 OT. Never had any problems.

Weird, seems like there is a partition.

I’d make a backup of the stock files I want to keep, then format the card.

Mount a set, place audio files in AUDIO folder.
