Troubleshooting
Wrong pitch or unexpected pitch
Is the Tune parameter in the Utility mode set to a value other than “0”?
Is the Note Shift parameter in the Utility mode set to a value other than “0”?
When the Voice produces a wrong pitch, is the appropriate tuning system selected from Micro Tune parameter
in the Voice Edit mode?
When the Performance/Multi produces a wrong pitch, is the Note Shift parameter of each Part set to a value
other than “0”?
No effect is applied
Have the REVERB and CHORUS Knobs/Sliders been turned fully to the minimum?
Have any or all of the effect types been set to “thru” or “off”?
Is the EFFECT ON/OFF parameter of each Effect set to OFF?
When this occurs in the Performance/Multi mode, check whether the Insertion Switch (Ins Effect Sw)
parameters are set properly or not.
Vocoder does not work when selecting a Vocoder Voice
Is the output of the A/D Input Part set to “vocoder”?
The Edit Indicator appears, even when parameters are not being edited
Keep in mind that even though the Edit mode is not active, simply moving a Knob/Slider changes the current
Voice, Performance, or Multi, causing the Edit Indicator to appear.
Some Arpeggio types include MIDI Control Change messages. When you play back such an Arpeggio type, the
sound of the current Voice may inadvertently be changed and the Edit Indicator may appear in the top right of
the display.
