I have downloaded the firmware update 3442a1_9194 on to a Sandisk USB drive. I tried it several times to make sure I did it properly. I keep getting the same error message from the mixer. I even tried a different thumb drive. Can you help?

I'm using a Mac Mini with OSX version 10.8.5

Make sure the files were extracted from the ZIP file you downloaded.  The firmware files need to be on the ROOT directory of the drive in order to be seen and loaded by the process.

For OSX 10.11 users, make sure you have selected the right USB drive Icon and selected the Master Boot selection from the options, and (for all OSX versions) be sure to select FAT, FAT16, or FAT32 format.

You can try a new or different Flash drive.
