Brad Saucier Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 That is a surprise. Okay, so here are the instructions on this update.... CT-X5000 Update Manual V1.07. Carefully read those instructions before proceeding. It says that all user data will be deleted during the update, so be sure to make a backup of your user data.

Brad, do I back up the user data to the root of the usb stick or to the Data file? I am gonna up date my CT-X5000 tomorrow (Sat).

Chandler Holloway Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 @RickyLee Go into the Media menu and choose save, then select the “All Data” option and press enter. You’ll be prompted to name the back-up file, so name it something recognizable for archival purposes, then press enter and yes to confirm the save. This should create a file with a .DAL extension inside the MUSICDAT folder on your flash drive which contains a full back-up of every piece of User Data on your X5000, such as Rhythms, Registrations, Tones, Phrases, etc all in one master file. Performing the update shouldn’t delete the data off of your flash drive (only the data in your keyboard’s built-in memory), but you should copy the .DAL file to your computer’s hard drive just to be safe. Download the new firmware update and place the .UPD file directly inside the root of your flash drive (not in the MUSICDAT folder like the rest of your User Data). The X5000 will not recognize the update file if it is inside a folder, it must be in the root directory of the drive. Follow the rest of the instructions until the new firmware is installed. When you reboot the X5000 with the new firmware for the first time, all your User Data will be gone. Go back to the Media menu, select Load and All Data and choose the .DAL back-up file you created earlier. Once it finishes loading, all your data should be restored. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Muscara Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Huh. Thanks for letting us know. I wonder what it fixes beyond that generic description. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 According to this page, it fixes a rare data loss issue that occurs when main power is interrupted instead of turned off with the power button, like pulling the plug or a power loss.

With your help, I was able to get it installed and files re-installed. Good to go! Thanks a million. RickyLee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerBannister Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 This update conveniently came out just before I bought my CT-X3000 so it was the first thing I did once I got it home 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinesh Tak Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 What new in CTX 9000in ver 1.07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Saucier Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Just posting here to add some newly discovered information on this update. Version 1.07 adds the ability to convert MIDI recorder system track data to SMF. It does this automatically when you choose Media>Save>MltR SMF. Version 1.05 and prior does not convert system track data to SMF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gp1 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 That does sound interesting. So basically if you create your own style and make a song with chord changes and everything you can export the midi into a daw? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gp1 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Not sure I understand the concept of a system track yet - but I'm thinking that is everything? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r_1159 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hello everyone I am going to upgrade my ctx3000 to 1.07 version. Do you know if upgrading the firmware will add system track conversion to SMF in CTX 3000 too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r_1159 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 oh seems no CTX3000 users here ! I ll do this and will update you here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerBannister Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I have a CT-X3000 but don't use this feature. I would assume it would work. No real downsides in updating anyway, as long as you backup your data first (if required). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
