The vibrato effect applied when a Style is recorded sounds different when it is played back. This may occur when you use a Style with certain SA2 Voices which have their own default vibrato value. Depending on the Modulation wheel position, the default vibrato value may be recorded or the modulation wheel value may be recorded, regardless of the actual vibrato sound you have played. To remedy this: Before starting to record the Style, operate the Modulation wheel once and change it to the position of the amount of vibrato effect you want to record. Song Songs cannot be selected. If the size of the Song data is large (about 300 KB or greater), the Song cannot be selected because the data is too large to be read by the instrument. Song playback does not start.

Troubleshooting
Voice
The Voice selected from the Voice Selection
display does not sound.
Check whether or not the selected part is turned on (page 35).
A strange “flanging” or “doubling” sound
occurs. The sound is slightly different each
time the keys are played.
The RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 parts are set to “ON,” and both parts are set to play the
same Voice. Turn off the RIGHT 2 part or change the Voice of one of the parts.
The sound is slightly different each time the
keys are played.
If you are routing the MIDI OUT on the Tyros4 to a sequencer and back to the MIDI IN,
you may need to set Local Control setting to “off” in the SYSTEM Page of the MIDI dis-
play (page 114).
Some Voices will jump an octave in pitch when
played in the upper or lower registers.
This is normal. Some voices have a pitch limit which, when reached, causes this type
of pitch shift.
Style
The Style does not start even when the
[START/STOP] button is pressed.
The Rhythm channel of the selected Style may not contain any data. Turn the [ACMP]
button on and play the left-hand section on the keyboard to sound the accompaniment
part of the Style.
Only the rhythm channel plays.
• Make sure the Auto Accompaniment function is turned on; press the [ACMP] button.
•You may be playing keys in the right hand range of the keyboard. Make sure to play
keys in the chord range of the keyboard.
Styles in a USB storage device cannot be
selected.
If the size of the Style data is large (about 120 KB or greater), the Style cannot be
selected because the data is too large to be ready by the instrument.
Style playback seems to “skip” when the key-
board is played.
You are probably exceeding the maximum polyphony of the instrument. The instrument
can play up to 128 notes at the same time—including RIGHT 1/RIGHT 2/RIGHT 3/
LEFT Voices, Style, Song, and Multi Pad notes. When the maximum polyphony is
exceeded, the least important notes (such as soft notes and notes currently decaying)
will stop sounding first.
Style does not change even when a different
chord is played, or the chord is not recognized.
Play the performance on the left-hand section of the keyboard.
The vibrato effect applied when a Style is
recorded sounds different when it is played
back.
This may occur when you use a Style with certain SA2 Voices which have their own
default vibrato value. Depending on the Modulation wheel position, the default vibrato
value may be recorded or the modulation wheel value may be recorded, regardless of
the actual vibrato sound you have played. To remedy this:
Before starting to record the Style, operate the Modulation wheel once and change it to
the position of the amount of vibrato effect you want to record.
Song
Songs cannot be selected.
If the size of the Song data is large (about 300 KB or greater), the Song cannot be
selected because the data is too large to be read by the instrument.
Song playback does not start.
The Song has been stopped at the end of the Song data. Return to the beginning of the
Song by pressing the SONG [STOP] button.
In the case a Song to which write-protect has been applied (“Prot. 2 Edit” is shown at
the upper left of the Song name):
• The original file may not be in the same folder. It cannot be played back unless the
original file (showing “Prot.2 Orig” at the upper left of the Song name) is in the same
folder.
• The original file name may have been changed. Rename the file with the original file
name (so that “Prot.2 Orig” is shown at the upper left of the Song name).
• The file icon may have been changed. Songs to which write-protect has been applied
cannot be played back when the file icon of the original has been changed.
The measure number is different from that of
the score in the Song Position display, shown
by pressing the [REW]/[FF] buttons.
This happens when playing back music data for which a specific, fixed tempo is set.
When playing back a Song, some channels do
not play.
Playback of these channels may be set to off.
• Turn playback on for those channels that are set to off on CHANNEL ON/OFF
(SONG) (page 62).
• Change the SONG CHANNEL setting to “PLAY” (page 85).
The tempo, beat, measure and music notation
is not displayed correctly.
Some Song data for the instrument has been recorded with special “free tempo” set-
tings. For such Song data, the tempo, beat, measure and music notation will not be dis-
played correctly.
