So I've seen that it was in the works for TE to support the ostrich(which I have), but then it went open source. Is there a file that I can d/l somewhere to make it work? My problem is I'm using a PM6 so uber and chrome and all the other programs on pgmfi are not an option for me.

Thanks

TurboEdit has supported the Ostrich for over a year my friend.

I believe all version 2.5.2 and higher have correctly working functionality...and the open source guys have taken this to actual working AUTOTUNE

so what am I doing wrong. actually, I'm having trouble getting the ostrich set up on my computer. How do I change the comm ports. Craig had a write-up on his site, but it's not for the computer illiterate= me. I got to the device manager and then I was lost I do have version 2.5.2 though

Thanks for the help

Use 2.5.5.. or later.. I haven't kept up on the open source edition, but I know my last release was 2.5.5 and it was working fine 100% flawlessly in that one.

alright i'll try that one, thanks

don't I still need to setup the ostrich with my computer so that when I plug it in to the comp, the comp recognizes the ostrich and can communicate with it?
I think this is where I'm getting, lost, but when I get home I'll try plugging it up and see if i can upload some roms from TE.

Well I plugged up my ostrich to my comp and everytime I click Real time programmabilty in TE w/ a bin open, it says

run time error '8002'
invalid port number

I keep going to tools, then options, then changing my port number and get the same error message everytime
I also do have ostrich selected under tools, options.

Thanks for the help

Go into Device Manager, make sure your Ostrich is installed correctly. If so, it'll create a device entry under "Ports". I can't remember exactly what it's called. Something like USB to Serial, or some ----. You'll see it... Then next to it, it should tell you what port it is.

If you can't get that far, then, well, you have other issues. Consult Craig on getting your Ostrich installed.

yeah I think my ostrich isn't even recognized by my computer. When I go to device manager, nothing comes up under serial/usb.

It'll show up under Ports. Look for a serial/usb or something lable... it won't be the Comm port or Printer port... If your computer isn't seeing the Ostrich... make sure you've installed the Moates usb drivers... and get that working properly first... Once its up... TE does RTP flawlessly.
