       The advanced sequencer mode has
 an bug which I've tried to track down for many months
 but I've not been able to find it yet. Just reflash the
 software and you should be good to go.
 
 When you reflash the software you will lose any sequences
 that you had in memory but your patches should be OK.

       hello Hawkers, last night i had a sequence
 running on my hawk when the whole thing crashed. i am hoping
 that someone here can help me troubleshoot what happened and
 how i can go about fixing it.
 
 
 
 what happened was i was playing around with the advanced
 seq. mode, which i havnt really done yet.  i had a sequence
 going, which was clocked externally.  I hit "Bank
 Hold" and "Write" at the same time, (thinking
 that i could change the sequence.. i was really just playing
 around with it) then it started flashing a bunch, and reset.
  after the reset, it goes through the self check, and gives
 me "error 4" (no error 5 or 6) which i understand
 is a hardware issue, and after that it just loads a
 "1" or sometimes an "A".  the strange
 thing is that i had it had a total running time of about 20
 hours with no trouble, and it hadn't moved from its
 spot.  i can still access the tools function, but there is
 no sound or patch banks anymore.  everything up until this
 has worked flawlessly.  Did i erase everything?  if so can i
 just re-flash the operating system back on it and reload the
 patches?  im not sure how i can check for hardware
 problems...  and if i
 
  re-flashed it, do i need to change around the positions of
 the IC's first?  any advice that's offered would be
 greatly appreciated. 
 
 
 
 thanks much,
