Troubleshooting
If there are problems during operation of the MRS-8, check the following points first.
Problems during playback
■ No sound, or sound is very weak
• Check the connections to your monitor system, and
the volume setting of the system.
• Make sure that the [MASTER] fader is raised.
• Make sure that the status keys in the mixer section
are lit in green and that the faders are raised. If a key
is out, press it to make it light up in green.
■ Playback sound is distorted
•Lower the faders of recorded tracks so that the level
meter 0 (dB) segment does not light.
• If the EQ gain of the mixer is set extremely high, the
sound may be audibly distorted even if the fader for
the track is lowered. Set the EQ to an appropriate
value.
■ Operating the fader does not affect the
volume
• On channels for which stereo link is turned on, the
fader of the even-numbered channel will have no
effect. Either turn stereo link off (
→
p. 60), or
operate the fader of the odd-numbered channel.
• The [RHYTHM] fader controls only the sound
(drum kit or bass program) currently selected for the
rhythm section. Press the [DRUM/BASS] key in the
rhythm section repeatedly to select the desired
sound, and then operate the fader.
■ No sound from input signal, or sound is
very weak
• Make sure that the respective INPUT [ON/OFF] key
is lit.
• Make sure that the respective [INPUT] control is
raised.
• Make sure that the record level setting (
→
p. 15) is
appropriate.
• Make sure that the [INPUT 1 SELECT] switch is set
to the appropriate position for the instrument
connected to the INPUT 1 connector.
■ The display indicates “Don’t Play” and
playback is not possible
The recorder will not operate in the current screen.
Press the [EXIT] key repeatedly to switch to the main
screen.
■ The indication “Stop Recorder” is shown
on the display, and operation is not
possible.
The current operation is not possible while the
transport is in playback mode. Press the STOP [
P
]
key to stop the recorder.
Problems during recording
■ Cannot record on a track
• Make sure that you have selected a recording track.
• Recording is not possible if the project is write-
protected. Either turn protect off (
→
p. 107), or use
a different project.
• If the indication “CARD PROTECT” is shown on
the display, write protect is enabled for the inserted
SD card. Slide the write protect switch on the card
up to turn write protect off.
• If the indication “FULL” appears during recording,
the SD card is full. Change to another SD card or
erase unneeded data to free up space. The V-take
currently being recorded will not be saved.
■ The signal from an instrument or mic
connected to an INPUT connector is not
available
While the built-in mic is active, the INPUT 1
connector cannot be used. Press the [MIC] key so that
it is flashing or out. This turns the built-in mic off.
