Hi,
First time i hooked up my axe fx to a computer was with my brothers laptop. I had never done anything like this before and had low expectations. Surprisingly everything just worked. I used the editor to upload presets to the axe fx and all seemed good. When I tried the exact thing at home I started getting bad checksum. I read the "How to: Bad Checksum errors & other transfer problems" and I've done everything except trying another midi interface. Since it worked the first time, why shouldn't it work on my computer, which is a lot better than my brothers laptop...with the exact same cables and the exact same interface and driver.
I tried to update the axe fx firmware. First when I pressed enter and the axe fx was waiting for file, when I started the transfer, nothing happened. I tried like 4-5 times and the last time I tried, it suddenly worked. The progress bar was displayed on the axe fx, but when the transfer was at 100% it just said bad checksum again....
SO I'm pretty sure that you guys are gonna tell me to get another interface. I just wish there was another solution
There's plenty of other stuff I want to purchase rather than spending all my money on trying different midi interfaces
I actually originally ordered the Midisport 2x2 but since I'm from Norway I had to wait like forever to get it, so they suggested to accept the Cakewalk instead. They claimed it even was a little better than the midisport, but I have no idea.
