        Hi,

         

        I’m trying to connect my Pitchfactor to update it and save my preset on H9 Control.

         

        I plugged it and then launch H9 Control. I have an error message that reads :

         

        “A communication error occured while communicating with your stompbox. A stompbox cannot be registered unless it’s connected to and communication with the app.”

         

        And then a second one :

         

        “An error occured while communicating with the Pitchfactor device ” PF-XXXXX “

        The stompbox is not responding. Please verify it is still connected. (Error code MessageConstants::sm_response_timeout)

        Error code (sm_response_timeout)”

         

         

        My pitchfactor got the firmware 5.0.0[4].

         

        I downloaded and installed the lastest version of H9 Control & it’s doesn’n work.

         

        I can launch Eventide Direct Updater. With another USB cable it works. But the Pitchfactor is named “Unknown” and it only suggests me to update my PF to 5.2.0[6].

        By the way, the 5.0.0[4] seems to be compatible with the H9 Control.

         

        I don’t want to update it to the 5.2.0[6], I lost my preset (last year) doing this. And I can’t save them with H9…

         

        I tried severals USB cables & all of my Midi Ports.

         

        Have you got a solution ?

         

        Thank you in advance,

          Are you on Mac or Windows?  We wrote down some tips on trouble shooting connectivity problems in the H9 Control manual.  The section on connecting to a device is at the start of the manual:

              Hi,

               

              I read and tried everything in the doc, nothing worked. I also tried a third cable, and on a second computer. And it doesn’t work.

              The USB outlet on my PF moves a little. Could it be the reason ? I never hit my stompbox, it never falls… It’s always protected in my pedalboard.

               

              I saw on your doc that I can do the same things I want with MIDI ports. Could you confirme that ? I just want to save my preset and reorganize them.

              I have a Midi to USB cable :

              It works great with my Strymons. I know it is in good conditions.

              I will go to pick it up to my studio next week if you confirm me I can save my preset with MIDI connections.

               

              Thank you in advance!

                Yes, it should work with MIDI as well.  Please try that instead.

                  Hi,

                   

                  I tried with MIDI, it still doesn’t work.

                   

                  I connected it manually. H9 crashed one time in two. The other time, it recognizes the stompbox as the USB does, but crash a few second after with the same message.

                   

                  Any idea ?
