![]() ![]() This is what I get at power on:īoot_recovery=if ext2ls mmc 0:$,ERROR_FS_MOUNT_SCRATCH false fi I used a Sparkfun “beefy” serial/USB adaptor () to hookup the RX, TX and GND pins at J17. J17 is a read-write serial console attached to the 1st-stage bootloader, U-Boot. J15 (not marked on the image above) is a read-only serial debug log at 115200 8N1 There are at least 3 UART debug interfaces onboard. ![]() The boot loader (U-Boot) presumably boots a Linux kernel off the SD-card, which loads the pedal’s control software. My guess (to be confirmed) is that IC1 (64k serial EEPROM) contains a boot loader that’s executed by the MX283. The ISP header is exposed but unpopulated. ![]() There’s an ATMEL ATtiny48 microcontroller, too. It turns out to be powered by a small NXP i.MX283 ARM9 system-on-chip. A bricked X4 and a small workshop full of electronic toys. Like most of the TC support encounters I’ve read about, it wasn’t helpful. I tried repeatedly to get more technical information about debugging the issue, but didn’t get anywhere. I filed a ticket with a detailed bug report of the problem, but they just referred me to a repair shop in Texas and closed the support ticket. Turns out they’re neither technical nor supportive. If I put a blank SD-card in the X4 instead of the one it came with, it never boots past all of the lights coming on – it doesn’t get as far as turning on the LOOP1 red LED. When power is applied, all the lights come on in red and green (people call it orange?) A few seconds later all the LEDs go off and the single solid red LED at LOOP1 comes on and stays on. I’m just an annoyed customer with a bricked Ditto X4 and some technical know-how. Create a set list and use as many presets as you need during a performance.I am in no way affiliated with TC Electronics or anyone/anything to do with them. NEW – Improved App – Send presets instantly and silently via USB cable.NEW – Manual mic gain – Direct user control of mic gain.NEW – Dimmable buttons – Adjust brightness for a variety of lighting conditions.NEW – Backing Track Routing – Send backing tracks from the ¼” outputs while sending vocals and/or guitar from the XLR outs for easy FOH mixing. ![]() NEW – Enhanced Looping – 50 Loop slots (up from 10), external footswitch control, improved sync.NEW – USB Audio – Stereo USB audio I/O for easy recording to computer.NEW – MIDI Sync – Slave to incoming MIDI tempo to align delay, looping and rhythmic effects to external sources like drum machines or DAW. ![]()
