Cheers for that

Mike from Frontier Designs finally got back to me. They've been swamped with emails this past 2 weeks. As a result, I've edited post #15 in this thread where I had previously said they hadn't replied. Fair's fair.    Cheers Mike.

The consensus is that the screen is toast and I've been advised to send it back to the retailer for a new one. Like I said in earlier posts, there's a fat chance of this as it was bought quite some time ago. It's th eonly thing I've ever bought and stored without testing. That'll teach me....lol. Also, this was the retailer's last one so I can't exchange it anyway. To be honest, I'm quite happy to  hang onto it given that it works fine for remote wireless recording - albeit minus the LCD screen.

Like I said, I've another one on the way from Oz. At least I'll have a back up for when one dies. I'll let ya know if the new one works - fingers crossed. However, there's no reason why it shouldn't as my issue seems to be an isolated incident.

Hi Again.

Well...I received my new Tranzport today from Australia and it works as it should. Therefore, I'm totally happy about that. I now have a fully working one and a back up unit for a rainy day which functions okay, albeit with a broken LCD screen.

Thanks again for all your help. It's you good folks who make this the lovely place it is.


Cheers

Zipps.

Great news, Zipps! You're gonna love it, esp. since you can see what it's actually controlling now!

@Dave- I can't imagine what they were thinking, either. I guess the obvious answer is there wasn't enough demand, but if that's what it was it really surprises me, since it does what it does so well (with a bunch of different apps) and seems to have a very loyal following. I'd feel lost without mine, too.

Hate to dig up and OLD thread , but my tranzport stopped working and wont bind, also..
 
did all the usual suspect steps, battery, driver, etc.
 
the only thing I can think of is a recent win 10 update, maybe ..
 
but seems more like a radio issue since it wont bind
 
I dont think Frontier does service anymore, but I will reach out and see

Thank Nigel., for the comments and wishes, it was working when I first installed win 10, but somewhere on the road it stopped, so I don't know if it is a result of a win 10 update or equipment failure, I tried your steps to no avail.
 
So I will continue to tinker with it.

Hi all, I have been using my Tranzport for years and absolutely love it. I can track my drums and vocals and the time it saves running back and forth to the control room is priceless. My problem is I just upgraded to a Allen & Heath Qu series board and windows 7. I am using a old version of Sonor 4 Producer series. I installed the win 7 drivers for the Tranzport and Sonor recognized it in the midi and as a control surface. The Tranzport screen lights when I hit a button then nothing shows up. When I hit play or different buttons on the Tranzport it triggers a midi note. Different notes for different buttons. I plug it back in to my old system and it works fine. Is my version of Sonor to old for Tranzport to work with win 7 ? Or am I missing something ?

Thanks, ZippSinc. I got mine working with the display working as well.  Your revision made the difference.
