Troubleshooting When there is a problem with the utility settings • Are the master tuning parameters Coarse and Fine set correctly? (page 195) • Is the MIDI parameter Transpose set to other than 0? (page 200) Cannot record • If you are recording an analog signal, is the REC VOL knob turned up? (page 10) • Is there free memory? To create contiguous free space, execute the Optimize operation. (page 151) • Is the Input selected correctly? (page 155) Cannot save data • Is the write protect tab of the floppy disk, MO disk, or other in the Protect position? • Is the floppy disk or hard disk formatted correctly? (page 177 - 180) • Is the hard disk mounted correctly? (page 173) Other problems Cannot use the AD input function • Is the program's AD Input setting turned on? (page 107) • Is the AD input Output1 or Output2 set to other than off? (page 108) • Is the AD input Output Level1 or Output Level2 set to 0? (page 108) Cannot make fine adjustments to the sample addresses • Is Auto set to other than off? (page 123) Cannot play chords • Is the sample parameter or easy edit parameter Poly/Mono set to Mono? (page 69, 127) • Does the sample parameter or easy edit parameter Alternate Group have a setting other than off? (page 101, 145) Volume or tone differs depending on the pitch • Is level scaling specified for the sample? (page 132) • Is filter scaling specified for the sample? (page 135) Tone, pitch or volume changes cyclically • Is the sample's LFO parameter Cutoff Mod Depth set to 1 or more? (page 144) • Is the sample's LFO parameter Pitch Mod Depth set to 1 or more? (page 144) • Is the sample's LFO parameter Amp Mod Depth set to 1 or more? (page 144) • If an external controller has been set to control the Cutoff Mod Depth, Pitch Mod Depth or Amp Mod Depth of a sample, is that controller raised (or lowered) ? (page 144) Of the incoming MIDI messages, only specific MIDI messages are not received • In the utility setting, are any of the settings Program Change, Control Change, After Touch or Pitch Bend set to "disable"?
