After some sound tweaking the AWM2 sound module is not working any more. FMX sound is working, even audition for a factory sound CFX and FMX only the FMX sound plays, no AWM2.
I did a factory reset and again an Upgrade to os 2.5. The error occured under 2.5 which i updated on 31.07.2018 and which was working properly until this morning.
Any Advice?
Kind regards
Chris

If you are certain you reset the unit, there is no amount of tweaking that would shut AWM2 off through a reset. You should have the instrument looked at by an Authorized Service Center. Contact Yamaha for the Service Centers in your area.
Sorry you are having an issue...

Hi Christoph
When i first loaded OS2.5 my AWM2 engine was only able to play some sine waves on every preset. ( i didn't check what FM was up to, i was too busy panicking).
This was cured on my machine by reloading OS 2.5. Is this what you experienced?

Thanks, i already contacted my Dealer.
One Question: How do i perform a reset?
Is a reset done by updating the Firmware? And will this be done by „updating“ from 2.5 to 2.5?
Tranks again for your Support, i keep you informed..
Regards
Chris

There is a button in the Utilty -> System area which also to initialize everything. That might help.

Yes, I would agree. I guess it is some repair center for it as BM also proposed. Sad but happens.

The "Initialize All" feature is not the same as re-installing firmware. Since this seemed to work for someone else - it may be something to try. Installing the same version over your current one should do no harm assuming you have everything on the instrument (user content) backed up -- as you must have if you're already doing full factory inits.

Current Yamaha Synthesizers: Montage Classic 7, Motif XF6, S90XS, MO6, EX5R
