JohnH Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 FYI, if you have an MODX+ please do not attempt to install the MODX firmware to it. These are two different instruments and you cannot install the MODX firmware to the + it will not work. Only install MODX+ firmware when it appears on the + download page. https://usa.yamaha.com/products/music_production/synthesizers/modxplus/downloads.html This is the same as trying to install Montage firmware to the MODX or MOX firmware to an MOXF. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnH Posted December 13, 2022 Author Share Posted December 13, 2022 It just generates error messages. The firmware update window shows a little red "ns" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberGene Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 That's good to know, so they implemented some guards. I've heard of instruments which won't prevent that and then you will end up with a bricked instrument. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnH Posted December 13, 2022 Author Share Posted December 13, 2022 Yes it won't damage it thankfully. Yikes, bricking w the wrong firmware that's not good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokely Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Have there been any updates to the original Modx in a while? Just curious. Good to know they put in those safeguards, I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bookmark this page. Click on it everyday. Load the firmware the day you see it. There's no "trouble" here. You are trying to get something that doesn't exist. There's no firmware to load. https://usa.yamaha.com/products/music_production/synthesizers/modxplus/downloads.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
