Troubleshooting
Problem
Chorus effect does not apply
Sound is distorted/cracked
The Bass Range Sounds Odd, or
There Is a Vibrating Resonance
The volume level of the instrument
connected to ATELIER is too low.
Pressing the expression pedal
while playing back ATELIER
performance data produces a
crackling noise
Registrations do not Switch Correctly
Problem
The Rhythm or Tempo does not
change when you press the
Registration buttons
244
Check
Some sounds do not allow the chorus
effect to be applied.
The Part Balance volume of each part
is too high.
The Reverb volume has been raised
when the volume of each Part Balance
button is already raised.
The [Master Volume] slider has been
used to raise the overall volume
excessively.
When listening through speakers:
Playing at loud volumes may cause
instruments near the ATELIER to
resonate. Resonance can also occur
with fluorescent light tubes, glass
doors, and other objects. In particular,
this problem occurs more easily when
the bass component is increased, and
when the sound is played at higher
volumes.
When listening through headphones:
Here, a different cause (such as
resonance produced by the ATELIER)
would be suspect.
Could you be using a connection cable
that contains a resistor?
The expression pedal function is set to
"PEDAL+COMPOSER" during
playback of ATELIER performance
data.
When this setting is used, moving the
expression pedal while playing back
ATELIER performance data may create
a difference between the expression
pedal information in the performance
data and the volume as set with the
expression pedal, which can result in
this kind of sound being produced.
Check
The settings at which Registrations are
recalled (Registration Arranger
Update) has been set to "DELAYED."
Solution
This is not a malfunction.
Press the Part Balance button to lower the
volume.
Either lower the Reverb volume, or adjust
the Part Balance of each part.
Use the [Master Volume] slider to lower
the overall volume.
Use the following measures to suppress
such resonance.
• Place speakers so they are 10-15 cm
from walls and other surfaces.
• Reduce the volume.
• Move the speakers away from any
resonating objects.
Consult your Roland dealer or nearest
Roland Service Center.
Use a connection cable that does not
contain a resistor.
Set the expression pedal function to
"PEDAL" during playback.
Solution
Set the timing at which the arranger
settings are called up (Registration
Arranger Update) to "INSTANT."
