Until we are, if you experience this issue upon updating firmware on your classic mixer we request that you submit a technical support ticket so that we can collect the data on your situation and use it to find the cause and cure.

Hi,
Our church just opened a support ticket on this issue. We went from UC 3.5.5 to UC 4.2.0, upgrading the board from 1.13 (did not have to do the step up process as we were already on 1.13.) Currently it is stuck at the "Starting ... Please Wait" screen like everyone else here on the forum thread. Any help would be appreciated as it's our only board for the church.

Thanks!
Aletheia Church, Cambridge, MA

Dear Presonus... I too have this issue.

I have 2 of these 16.4.2 boards both with the following.
Firmware version: 1.50a
Build: 190

I use one for live sound the other for my studio. These are early versions and have been running great for 2+ years... on a positive note.

I wanted to start fresh with the live sound board and did a factory reset from the UC.
It is now bricked with the same message "Please wait...".
This took place immediately after the message on the screen said complete, restart the device and click OK.

New Mac with Elcapitan, downloaded latest UC. All was well and syncing fine until trying the factory reset.

Slightly different than others bricked devices with trying to update the firmware but still...

I submitted a support ticket earlier today and will await your response.

I assume the unit will have to be sent in as there is no real user serviceable area to perform a flash like the Ai series. Honestly, a big oversight on Presonus's part.

If there is a process and the unit needs to be disassembled I am more than happy to do so :+1

Hello :( I have a problem with a firmware upgrade in the 16.4.2 presonus studolive console! I wanted to upgrade the firmware 1.13 more like a multi-channel recording and everything I did as instructed by the official website using the MacBook Pro axis to El Capitan ver 10.11.3 or the console brakes every time you turn on me startup please wait. . I can not subject myself to the factory riddles using the Universal Control and every time I try again tells me the attached hardware is already up-to-date? Could it be that someone had this problem and how you solved? I need an answer as soon as possible to try to osposobim Console until tonight because I live performance :( Thank you in advance to everyone for your help?

Just adding fuel to the fire at this point, but this just happened to me as well. I'm somewhat relieved that I'm not the only one who ran into this issue...

My firmware was originally 1.12 and so I used an old MBP running Snow Leopard (10.6) to update the firmware to 1.13 as the step-up plan indicated. From there I installed Universal Control on my current MBP running Mavericks (10.9) and upgraded firmware. Initially, it seemed that the firmware update was successful and UC prompted me to reboot my machine (not sure of the exact wording, but it was ambiguous enough that it seemed I needed to reboot StudioLive). I was skeptical to reboot so went to check that the firmware was actually successful and StudioLive showed the latest firmware version. I rebooted StudioLive and ended up with this issue. When I try to factory reset or check firmware from UC, it now just says that "This hardware is already up-to-date."

Frustrating to say the least... Opened up a case with Tech Support immediately, but I'm guessing I now have an expensive brick until I send it in to get repaired...

Luckely me! I am already on 1.90 firmware for the time it's available, and I have my laptop the same for this years with Studio one.2 producer. I have blocked internet completely on the laptop and am using it only with the 16.4. I have the 16.4 for 5 year now, and it never failed me!

So, for me is the ultimate solution: Have the last firmware on the 16.4 and the appropiate versions on the computer, and then NEVER do a upgrade or windows change EVER.
Then your configuration will run forever....................... :D

Open a service ticket with PreSonus. No other options I'm afraid.

I have opened a ticket. I am in the middle of a project and this has really put me in a bad position with my client. This is outrageous! How quickly are these issues being resolved with support? To the other who have posted here, or in other threads -- what have your experiences been?

I'm hoping PreSonus will work with me to make things right. I like their gear... when it works.

thanks

Hi, are PreSonus able to provide an update of this known issue please? As it's a known issue, I'm reluctant to send the unit off for repair at cost when it's possible some information or a fix may be released sometime soon. Thank you.

And I am starting to see that Sierra is worse in some areas. No longer as bullet proof as when Jobs was around I'm afraid.

I have the same Problem must be a way to fix it because looks like even if we fix it could happen again and again, how we can reset to factory defaults with no communication with the computer? thats why in the new version (AL) they add a usb port in the mixer

Cheers

The USB port does not help if the (AI-)board is irresponsive. To answer your question: If the board does not boot, there is nothing you can do any more. Something is defect inside (probably the DSP board), so it needs professional care. A factory reset helps (while the board works), if functions do not work propperly or presets are lost. Your mixer obviously needs a repair, so open a ticket and send the board to the hospital in Baton Rouge (or wherever your service is located).
