@@jobaps2248 You may have missed a step, copied the entire folder (or not the right files) into the Katana instead of the two files or you may have used MK1 files. I would start over using the linked video in my pinned comment and try again.
I had this all messed up trying to do it on my own. Mainly because lack of patience. You simplified this for us by clearly conveying step by step how to complete from start to finish. You have done us a great service. Thank you very much!
@@risingpower3658 It works for plenty of other people. See all these other folks that got it figured out? Download the right software and install it the correct way.
thank thank you...been pulling my hair out not being able to get katana working properly. came across your video, followed step by step....and BINGO! its all working...many thanks
Dude thank you so much, I was so sad because I love the Boss Katana and the Tone Studio software, and I couldn't getting it working. but now it does! I appreciate it!!!
A huge thank you brother as l was really struggling to get my mk2 set up. This was a clear walk through without all the jargon. I am truly grateful and appreciative.
Finally! After 5 gours of torture trying to get this set up i watch your video, thanm you for this step by step guide, other youtubers skip this step and im left confused. Thank you!
Brother, I want to reach through this internet and shake your hand! Like a few comments below, the Boss instructions were not very clear, and other sources were equally confusing, and I was not getting anywhere. I'm glad I found this video, as it was the clearest, most direct way to do it, where I was unable before. THANK YOU!!! I'm all set, finally! Thanks again!!
@@TheLithGH good deal! I have a new video for the latest update but this old one still gets a lot of views, so I wasn't sure. Thanks for letting me know.
Got a used Katana 50 MK2 spent 4 hrs trying to connect it to my desktop commputer ,sir you are wonderfull for putting this video out.Followed your instructions and had success,Thanks for getting me up and running
I can't thank you enough, man. wasted a day trying to get my amp connected to the computer. turned out it needed an update. thanks again. long live UA-cam!
I did too. I'm glad you got it going. I'm about to get an Artist 100 MK II and I'll probably do a video on that one as well. We'll see. Thanks for watching!
Hi I do not post comments but I had to say thank you. All tips and tricks did not work for error message ( mid-audio) until I saw this video with step by step to install firmware to my Katana 50 MK2. thanks again and I subscribed .
So I have windows 11. Nobody has instructions for windows 11. I'm not that computer savvy and what I learned the past few years I've mainly forgotten. Between your video a little guessing and a little luck I somehow managed to get it all installed and working. Your video was spot on but windows 11 is different so I couldn't exactly follow step by step hence the guessing and luck. Anyways thanks, I think yours was the easiest to follow as I watched a few others that I couldn't even figure out.
Very much appreciate the time and effort to make this video. You do an excellent job of demonstrating and explaining, making easy what is otherwise confusing. Thank you!
Wow. Great tutorial. I was so confused as to why I couldn't get tone studio to work across my laptop and desktop and gave up for months until I found your video. Now I finally fully unlocked my Katana 50 MKII. Thanks!
Thanks for the video dude. That has got to be the biggest amount of instructions I've ever seen to update anything. The tone studio installer didn't want to open for me at all. So just a tip for anyone that has this problem, click on run as administrator and it worked straight away using that option :)
Thank you so much for sorting this out for me. I'm not very good with computers and this solved my problem. Boss should just send a link to this video for the update. Cheers!
Guitarnivore The process is not very intuitive at all! I sent them feedback stating that it really is much more difficult than it needs to be. I wonder how many people just give up? Anyway, thank you again! God bless
Thanks so much man. The amp sounds muffled and shit stock. Now it sounds amazing after finally accessing the tone studio which IMO shouldn’t take this long.
Kept getting an error. Looked up why watched other videos nothing seemed to help. Until I saw this video I was able to see what was wrong. Very easy to follow, great detail from beginning to end! Thanks man!
Thank you so much i’ve been struggling with this all day and you helped me do it in 20 minutes i was about to return the thing until i found your video off a guy on reddit
Hello very informative video, just purchased the KT 2, l was unable to install the drivers, now with this video l think l will be able to download the drivers, thank you so much my friend,
Thanks for a "GREAT" Video my friend; your time and efforts are greatly appreciated. My Katana 50 MkII will be here in a couple of days so I'm excited to get it up and running. I do have a question. I, also, have a Yamaha THR 30II Wireless on order also and will be running both of them off of my Laptop. Will (both) programs run, on one Computer (one at a time of course) without causing a problem/glitch for each other? I know it's an "off-the-wall" question but it's the 1st time I've done something like this and I was hoping for some information. Thank you, again, so much for all of this...
Was curious about if you can use the tone studio with the amp without internet? I have internet to download everything but I usually jam in my garage and wifi doesn't reach. Will I still be able to edit things in tone studio with no wifi?
@@joshuagoudie2849 it should load it. You won't see anything about it, but like I showed in the video, you can see it in the control panel when it does.
Hey, I am completely new to this so sorry if it is a stupid question. I am going to buy this AMP next week, so I am just looking through for now. Lets say that my soon to be AMP will be up to date with the firmware, so it will give me those green and red lights that yours had in the beginning of the video. Do I still need to go through the process of firmware upgrading? I am asking this because your firmware was already up to date.. and you did it anyways. I don't know if you did it for the sake of the tutorial, or if you actually need to do it. Thanks.
Sorry for the delayed response. I'm not getting notifications from UA-cam. So yeah, I did it for the sake of the tutorial If yours is already up to date. No need to try to upgrade it.
Thanks for this, i have a question though. On the manual and other online videos on the tone studio there is alot more than what you and i have.. The 6 livesets starting with liquid tones etc.. Ive seen other videos with a hell of a lot of other stuff but apparently just owning the tone studio should automatically download everything there is availaible.. How do i get all this other stuff??
The six live sets are the only ones available for the Mk II. I know, there are a bunch that I would have loved to check out too. However there are some Facebook groups with free patches created by users. But with the live sets, it doesn't automatically download them to your library. You have to do that.
Brother Man, I've been going over the instructions a few times and found out I missed a sentence which you directed me to. You're awesome! Subscribe!!!👍
Hi, I happened to come across your video while trying to use Tone Central. I just bought the katana mkII and it does not want to connect to the software. Is the update operation necessary to use Tone Central correctly? Thanks to you
Its good. I launched into the update and effectively the katana could not connect to Tone Studio without it. Thank you for your demonstration, this is more reassuring than following a paper procedure.
Thank you so much for this!! One question, I bought this same amp a few days I ago and now I know which firmware my amp has. However, since I didn't know until today, I downloaded the driver and the BTD ver.1.02 to my computer, plugged my amp to my laptop and it worked perfectly. Do I need to delete BTS in order to update my Katana to the 1.02 version?
I factory reseted my amp in order to update its firmware and it worked perfectly!! I only have one doubt. I noticed that when you hold the TAP button and turn on the amp, your effects' leds flash red and then stay lit, and after that only the green and red led stay lite like in the video. However, in my amp, before all the effects' leds flash red and stop, the booster led lights up ORANGE and the reverb led RED. The amp works fine but I don't know why that happens in my amp and not yours.
This update video is outdated. Please refer to this video for the latest update instructions: ua-cam.com/video/7kOdWBHUJHU/v-deo.html
