Troubleshooting Arpeggiator
135
Arpeggiator
The Arpeggiator does not start
□ Is the ARP button turned on (lit)? → p.73
□ If the arpeggiator does not start for a combination or
song, make sure that Run is checked, and that an
arpeggiator is selected for Assign. → p.76
□ If the arpeggiator does not run in the ARP PATTERN>
SETUP–MODE pages, could you have moved from
Combination or Sequencer mode with settings that keep
the arpeggiator from starting?
□ Is the MIDI Clock (G-MIDI> BASIC) parameter set to
Internal? → p.117
□ In the GLOBAL> SYSTM page, is ARP/SS/DT All Off
checked? → p.116
Drum Track function
The Drum Track does not start
□ Is the DRUM TRACK button turned on (lit)? → p.83
□ You pressed the DRUM TRACK button but the drum
track pattern did not start.
• Is the DRUM TRACK button blinking?
Trigger Mode is set to Wait KBD Trigger. The drum
track pattern will start when you play the keyboard or
receive a note-on. → p.85
• Did you select a pattern that does not contain data?
• Could 000: Off be selected as the pattern? → p.83, 84
□ If the drum track pattern fails to start in Combination
mode, is the Output setting appropriate?
If the drum track pattern fails to start in Sequencer mode,
are the Input and Output settings appropriate?
→ p.84, 86
□ Is MIDI Clock (G-MIDI> BASIC) set to Internal or
Auto? → p.117
□ In the GLOBAL> SYSTM page, is ARP/SS/DT All Off
checked? → p.116
Drum Kits
The drumsample’s pitch does not change
□ You have left the Assign check box unchecked, and want
to play the drumsample at the adjacent right a semitone
lower, but the pitch does not change.
• If you’ve selected a drum program in Program mode, and
then want to use the Global/Media mode DRUM KIT
page to edit the drum kit, you should use the P-PITCH>
BASIC page to set Pitch Slope to +1.0 before you enter
the DRUM KIT page. → p.15
Effects
Effects are not audible
□ Have you selected effect program 000: No Effect ?
• Select an effect other than 000: No Effect for “IFX1–5,”
or “MFX 1, 2.”
□ Are the Effect SW IFX and MFX check boxes
(GLOBAL> SYSTM page) selected? → p.116
□ If you are in Combination and Sequencer mode, and
master effects are not audible when you raise the Send1
or Send2 of the timbre/track, does Return 1 or Return 2
from the master effect need to be raised? → PG p.93, 135
Alternatively, has Send 1 or Send 2 for each oscillator of
the program used by the timbre/track been lowered?
→ PG p.91, 132
Note: The actual send level is determined by multiplying
the send setting of each oscillator in the program with the
send setting of the timbre/track.
□ Have you routed the output to an insert effect?
→ p.68, 70 and PG p.216
The program selected for a timbre/track in Combination or
Sequencer mode sounds different than when played in
Program mode
□ When you select a program for a timbre/track in
Combination or Sequencer mode, the arpeggiator and
effect settings from Program mode are not automatically
applied.
• You can use the Copy From Program, Copy Insert
Effect, or Copy Master Effect functions to copy these
settings from Program mode.→ PG p.95, 96, 96,
→ PG p.139, 151, 151
Step sequencer
When a favorite is selected, you can’t save step sequencer
settings
□ This is normal. Access and save these settings in Program
or Combination mode.
Pad sampler
Pressing a sampled pad produces no sound.
□ Have you inserted the SD card that you used when
sampling?
□ Have you selected the bank A–H that you used when
sampling?
In Sequencer mode, the pad sampler performance is not
recorded or played back.
□ In the MAIN or PROG page, is the SMP(PAD
SAMPLER On/Off) turned on? If this is on, the pad
sampler performance can be recorded on track 15 as
MIDI note-on/off messages, and played back.
