Troubleshooting
In the Audio Recording function, an error
message appears and audio cannot be
recorded to the USB flash drive.
Make sure to use a compatible USB flash drive.
The USB flash drive may not have enough free space. Check the available space on the
display called up via [MENU] [Utility] [Storage]. (page 108)
If you are using a USB flash drive to which data has already been recorded, check first that
no important data remains on the drive, then format it (page 108) and try recording again.
Mixer
The sound seems strange or different than
expected when changing a rhythm Voice
(drum kit, etc.) of the Style or Song from the
Mixer.
When changing the rhythm/percussion Voices (drum kits, etc.) of the Style and Song from
the VOICE parameter, the detailed settings related to the drum voice are reset, and in
some cases you may be unable to restore the original sound. You can restore the original
sound by selecting the same Style or Song again.
Microphone/Vocal Harmony, Guitar
The microphone or guitar input signal cannot
be recorded.
The microphone or guitar input signal cannot be recorded by MIDI recording. Record by
using Audio recording (page 85).
(PSR-SX900) Harmony can be heard in
addition to the microphone sound.
Vocal Harmony is set to on. Turn Vocal Harmony off (page 50).
(PSR-SX900) The Vocal Harmony effect
sounds distorted or out-of-tune.
Your vocal microphone may be picking up extraneous sounds, such as the Style sound
from the instrument. In particular, bass sounds can cause mistracking of the Vocal Har-
mony. To remedy this:
• Sing as closely to the microphone as possible.
• Use a directional microphone.
• Turn down the Master volume, Style volume, or Song volume control (pages 20, 80).
(PSR-SX900) The Vocal Harmony effect is
not applied even when it is turned on.
In the Chordal mode, Vocal Harmony is added only when chords are detected. Try one of
the following:
• Turn on the [ACMP ON/OFF] button and play chords in the chord section during Style
playback.
• Turn on the Left part and play chords in the left hand section.
• Play back a Song which contains chords.
• Set the “Stop ACMP” parameter to something other than “Disabled” via [MENU] [Style
Setting] [Setting]. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.
FOOT PEDAL jacks
The on/off setting of the footswitch connected
to the ASSIGNABLE FOOT PEDAL jack is
reversed.
Turn the instrument’s power off, then turn it on again making sure not to press the foot-
switch.
Connections
Sound input to the AUX IN jacks is inter-
rupted.
The output volume of the external device connected to this instrument is too low. Increase
the output volume of the external device. The volume level reproduced via this instrument
can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] dial.
The Wireless LAN and Time icons are not
shown in the Menu display even though the
USB wireless LAN adaptor is connected.
Disconnect the USB wireless LAN adaptor and connect it again.
The Bluetooth-equipped device cannot be
paired with nor connected to the instrument.
Check that the Bluetooth function of the Bluetooth-equipped device is activated. To con-
nect the Bluetooth-equipped device and the instrument, Bluetooth function of both devices
need to be turned on.
The Bluetooth-equipped device and the instrument need to be paired to connect each
other via Bluetooth (page 104).
In case there is a device (microwave oven, wireless LAN device, etc.) that outputs signals
in the 2.4 GHz frequency band nearby, move this instrument away from the device that is
emitting radio-frequency signals.
