Unusual Event occurred with BeatBuddy

Strange indeed. Lots of very small anomalies happen with the pedal and most of them are easily solvable. Since you’ve resolved your issue, most of the bullets below won’t apply to you but they could explain the initial source of your symptoms and might help others with similar symptoms:

  • When this happens, it might be one of the patch cables is either not making a solid connection or one or more cables is defective
  • Some users somehow plug a TRS (stereo) cable in instead of the mono cable
  • Depending on the kit, some of the user-created drum sets require both left and right output cables.
  • Some user have reported that the left pedal output does not sum as expected Outputs - L(Mono), R ....Something Doesn't Seem Right
  • Sometimes the Export or Synchronization from the BeatBuddy Manager (BBM) does not transfer all of the data to the SD card or it gets corrupted during the data transfer. This could be because the SD card might have been locked or the USB cable connection method was used. Verify that the card is unlocked and try using the computer SD slot reader or an external SD card reader
  • Other times a power surge or interruption might cause the firmware to not work properly. The fix is to download, unzip and install the firmware files to the SD card using the computer SD slot reader.
