No sound
• Reconfirm that the power to the AR-200 or connected
device is on.
• Reconfirm that the volume control on the AR-200 or
connected device is turned up.
• Reconfirm that there are no shorts in any connector
cables.
There is a scraping sound coming from the AR-
200
• In situations such as when control signals are input
continuously, the movement of the internal relays may
make a scraping sound, but this does not indicate any
malfunction. To prevent overuse and failure of the relay,
you may also switch to Interval Playback in order to
have the relay move only once.
→ " Interval Playback" (p. 34)
The volume of the device connected to the
output connector is low
• Are you using a connector cable that introduces or adds
resistance? Use a cable that does not add resistance (such
as Roland’s PCS Series).
Card made on the AR-3000
Operation cannot be synchronized
• Are the MTC “Sync Source” and “Sync Out” set
correctly?
When using the AR-200 as a slave, check to make sure the
settings are correctly made for the conditions.
• If using MTC, are both devices set to the same MTC
type?
• Check the AR-3000 to confirm that the MIDI device ID
settings are correct.
Phrases are not played back (PLAY indicator is
flashing)
• Is the MTC “Sync Source” set to “MTC?”
When not synchronizing playback with MTC and using the
AR-200 as a slave, set “Sync Source” on the AR-3000 to
“Internal.”
Pattern phrases and song phrases are not
played back as intended
• Phrases composed from pattern phrases or song phrases
will not be played back properly unless they are saved as
actual phrases (if the composed phrase is not saved, the
next phrase is sought and then played back). Check the
AR-3000 to confirm whether or not the composite phrase
has been saved.
The start of phrase playback is delayed when
playback is controlled from an external device
• Has the “Delay Time” been set for the phrase?
Try playing back the phrase by pressing the AR-200’s PLAY
button (manual operation). If the start of playback is delayed,
check the AR-3000 to confirm whether or not the delay time
has been set.
If the playback is correct when you press the AR-200’s PLAY
button, check the control signals being sent from the external
control device, connections and so on once more.
