Troubleshooting
Playback continues without stopping.
When the [ARP ON/OFF] button is turned on, press it so that the button is turned off.
When in the Song display, press the [J] (Stop) button.
When the effect sound such as Delay continues, check the effect setting or select the Performance again.
When the click sound continues, check the following parameter setting. Set this parameter to something other than "always,"
since this setting always plays back the click sound regardless of the sequencer status.
[UTILITY] [Tempo Settings] Click "Mode"
Distorted sound.
Are the effect settings appropriate?
Use of an effect at certain settings may produce distortion.
[EDIT] Part selection ELEMENT/OPERATOR [COMMON] [Effect]
Are the filter settings appropriate?
Excessively high filter resonance settings can cause distortion.

[EDIT] Part selection ELEMENT/OPERATOR [COMMON] [Pitch/Filter]
Are any of the following volume parameters set so high that clipping is occurring?

Sound is cut off.
Is the entire sound (via your keyboard playback and Song/Part/Arpeggio playback) exceeding the maximum polyphony (128
for each of AWM2 and FM-X) of the MONTAGE?
Only one note sounds at a time.
When this situation occurs, the Mono/Poly parameter in the current mode is set to "mono."
If you wish to play chords, set this parameter to "poly."
[EDIT] Part selection ELEMENT/OPERATOR [COMMON] [Part Settings] [General] "Mono/Poly"
Pitch or intervals are wrong.
Is the Master Tune parameter of each Part set to a value other than "0"?

Is the Note Shift parameter of each Part set to a value other than "0"?
