Count To Five

So, full instructions for people:

• Install Xcode and the Xcode Command Line Tools (available in the mac app store or via the mac developers page if you need an older version to run on your mac. The download is like 5GB and will take like 10GB of space once installed
• Open Xcode agree to Apple's terms
• Agree to the command line terms by typing the following command into terminal and then scrolling until you can type "agree"

  Code: Select all

  sudo xcodebuild -license

• Install macports (available on their website)
• Open terminal, install dfu-util with the following command:

  Code: Select all

  sudo port install dfu-util

• Finally install the update with the final command, replacing the path with the Ct5 Update:

  Code: Select all

  dfu-util -a 0 -D /path/to/dfuse-image.dfu

Simple, but a little time consuming if you don't already have xcode installed.

Also, i just realized I need to upgrade my Ct5 since I have a revision j and I'm just now realizing I won't be getting all these k, and l updates.

Trying to follow these, and none of the options you described came up for me in xcode... Are you using El Capitan and all the latest versions of eveything? Mine is asking to open an existing project or start a new one. No code entry area????????

Sorry, I should have specified. All code is typed into terminal. You just need xcode for terminal commands to work. If you wait until late tomorrow, I'm going to try and write a script to make it even easier.

I'll just wait in that case then. Much appreciated. It keeps saying that it can't open the firmware file...

[DRodriguez]

Are you changing the /path/to/dfuse-image.dfu to the actual firmware path? If you copy the file and paste it into terminal, it should fill it in for you. Or you could manually do it like ~/Downloads/filename.dfu.

I begin to follow this tutorial but discovered I had a rev j board :/

Me too. But there is an update for the J board that gives you the transcendence mode. We just don't get the other goodies.

I'm hearing quite a bit of hiss from my CT5 (rev. j) and just found some posts that mention a trim pot. Is there a chance my pedal can be quieter by adjusting this, and if so, how would I go about it?

I did, but I might have missed something else along the way. All else fails, a friend has a PC

So wait, is an h/i board capable of transcendence, or LPF on mode 1, or separate volumes on mode 3?

I haven't found it on the website. Link?

There is no update like that. The most recent update for h/i/j is 0.931. You can read what was changed/added in these links.

At this point the signal is completely cut when i engage it on. Ive been using the same setup power wise for a few months and had no issues up tot his point.

You can follow the return procedures on this page if you need to send it in. Make sure you have your input/output connected properly. Since it is true bypass it will pass signal when bypassed even if you have the inputs and outputs backwards.

There is a trimpot that says "gain" beside it. You can try adjusting it. Pre rev k boards ar only 12 bit though so they will never sound as clean as the newer models. The original demo vids are of 12 bit units though so you shoudl be able to achieve similar results.

I would also make sure you have the most recent (0.931) firm for that board.

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

Ignore me, that's the update I did. I was getting so excited to try out the new feature too.

[multi_s]

it's all good.

the good news is we haven't made this product confusing at all.

How's the script going?
