Losing Memory (Patches/Patterns) from Multiple Hardware Devices??

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>I lost memory on my Prophet Rev 2 and Arturia Drumbrute at the same time. I'm wondering if others have seen anything like this happen before - I'm looking for theories or past experience on what might have happened. </p> <ul> <li>Prophet Rev 2: my user presets all were reset back to the factory</li> <li>Drumbrute: all patterns, both factory and ones I had edited were erased</li> <li>I don't know exactly when this happened - I suppose there is a one or two day window</li> <li>They are connected to cakewalk sometimes over laptop using USB - wondering if there is anyway some weird command could have been sent out</li> <li>They are connected to SL MK3 over midi all the time - again wondering if there is anyway some weird command could have been sent out. </li> <li>I have several devices plugged into a powered ~10 port USB hub (basically always plugged in), and then I connect and disconnect that USB hub to my laptop for cakewalk (or other software like the midi control center for Arturia).</li> <li>I do not take any special care when disconnecting USB.</li> <li>I do not take any special care when powering down.</li> <li>I do have a tendency to sometimes leave the devices on overnight from time to time and I believe that was the case here.</li> <li>I don't know of any power outages - we did not have any clocks lose their time over this time period.</li> <li>I'm new to this - I've had this hardware for maybe a month.</li> </ul> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/stringmusicreddit"> /u/stringmusicreddit </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/kags85/losing_memory_patchespatterns_from_multiple/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/kags85/losing_memory_patchespatterns_from_multiple/">[comments]</a></span>
