So I managed to get it working properly! :)

I was using the ftdi driver recomended by the manufacturer of the cable (the one I linked to above), but when I uninstalled that one and had Windows go look for the driver on Windows Update suddenly everything started to work.

So a suggestion to other new users is to start by installing the Arduino IDE, then plug in the FTDI cable and let Windows get the driver for you.

Now off to some composing....

Hi!
I recently bought the Atmegatron but haven't been able to upload any new software. I checked the other posts about it, but still couldn't figure out what's wrong (ie I checked that the cable is correctly inserted, I've flipped the programmer/midi switch to the left etc..). So far I've tried the Delayertron, the Odytron and the Atmegadrum software but no luck.

This is the cable I am using:

With the VCP drivers from here:

This is the error messages I keep getting:
