Hey, I know this is a blast form the past but I just picked up an Operator 192 that was in a show room for all its life. I have a question about the back up of programs. It say the USB stick is a proprietary device and the u link cable can be used. You need to have a program on your PC to save and restore the files. It won't load on my not too new PC , I think XP is maybe the required version. Seems odd in this age to now be able to plug in a stick and save your files. Any body have...

You have the cable and the program? Try running it in windows compatibility mode? It's so old i don't think we can make any promises.

I don't have the cable or the USB, I'm going to try and load the program on a laptop with XP. I see the cable is still available from some supplies. I'm in Canada and the shipping for something that small can be real stupid lol

Ok, well go ahead and give that a shot and keep us posted here. and yes, Canada really has some crazy shipping and import stuff going on.

One thing after another lol. I have a laptop, old, Had XP on it and upgraded to 7, Wanted to load the U link software so down graded to XP, now it won't copy some files during the install. WHAT? it was install previously. What would be a more current controller in the same vein as the 192 that can be backed up by a simple USB connection. I have been using the original MyDMX on the old laptop. Part of the reason for the change is i want to have Audio triggering, not all the time, just for...

Seems like a lot of hasell just for a silly old back up program.... I would try MyDMX 3.0, that has the ability to let scenes run according to a beat or a pulse and you can chose per scene how it runs too.

UPDATE: I got the U-link cable that I ordered off Amazon, won't scare you with what it cost. I was able to get the software installed on both Windows VISTA and 7. Getting the drives installed was a bit of a pain on 7, but it worked and I was able to down load and back up my work. So I'm happy.
