Hi,

I’m trying to update the firmware on my Sub 37, but the process consistently fails and the unit is now stuck in bootloader mode.

Current screen shows:

“Firmware Update – Flash Erased, Ready for Code”

and during transfer I get:

“ERROR: Proc. Buff”

What I’ve already tried:

- Multiple firmware downloads (fresh files from your website)

- Different computers (Mac and Windows)

- Different software (SysEx Librarian, MIDI-OX, C6)

- Extremely slow transfer speeds and increased buffer delays

- Different USB cables and ports

- USB direct connection (no hub, no MIDI DIN)

The update always fails before completion and returns the same “Proc. Buff” error.

At this point I’d like to know:

- Is this a known issue?

- Could this indicate a hardware failure (flash memory / main board)?

- Is there any alternative recovery method?

The unit is currently unusable as it has no firmware installed.

Thanks in advance for your help.
