no voices & failed calibration after upgrading to 1.1.0

no voices & failed calibration after upgrading to 1.1.0
« on: September 15, 2023, 10:08:51 AM »
I upgraded the os to 1.1.0 with sysx from the way it looked succesfuly.
However suddenly i don't get any sound from the osc's, only the noise generator seems to give sound.
After multiple rounds of full calibration i consistently get:
OSC voice fails
3320 voice fails
SEM voice fails;246
VCA voice fails


What should i do? i'm a bit worried now.

Hi,

I would make sure you updated to 1.1.1.0 https://oberheim.com/support/

After any OB-X8 update, you will need to run through 3 steps listed in the OS zip file and on the update page of the OB website.

RESETTING THE GLOBAL PARAMETERS

You must reset the Global parameters of the OB-X8 after you update the OS.

- Press the Global button.
- Use the Scroll Knob to select Reset Globals, then press the Write button.
 

CLEAR CALIBRATION

You must clear calibration and run full calibration after any OS update.

- Hold Transpose Up + Down and press the Global button.
- Select the first option to Clear Calibration and press Write.
- From here, run full calibration following the steps below.
 

RUN FULL CALIBRATION

Please run the full calibration Global option after you update the OS.

- Press the Global button.
- Use the Scroll knob to select Full Calibration, then press the Write button.
- The synthesizer performs its auto-calibration procedure. Do not turn off the power while it is doing this.
- When finished, the front panel controls return to normal, and you can play the OB-X8 again.
