Phenomenon
Storage is not possible.
Setting the time signature is not possible.
The playback timing of the rhythm pattern is dif-
ferent from the timing with which it was recorded.
The Disk Drive produces a noise during recording
or playback.
When the procedure to load from a disk is per-
formed, the contents of the memory are erased.
Data cannot be exchanged through MIDI termi-
nals.
The sound quavers or is distorted.
Noise from a radio or TV can be heard.
The cabinet becomes warm during use.
Remedy
• The remaining memory capacity of the COMPOSER is
0.
• The time signature cannot be changed for a pattern
which is currently recorded in the COMPOSER. If you
wish to change the time signature, first follow the pro-
cedure to clear the memory. (Refer to page 82.)
• The QUANTIZE function was on when the pattern was
recorded and the timing was automatically corrected.
Set the quantize level to a smaller note unit or to OFF
when recording. (Refer to page 84.)
• This occurs when the Disk Drive is reading a disk. It
does not indicate a problem.
• When performing the load operation from a disk, the
memory changes to that of the data loaded from the
disk. If you wish to preserve a song which is stored in
the memory, save it on a disk before performing the
load procedure.
• Match the channels on the transmitting side and the
receiving side. (Refer to page 127.)
• When the USB terminal or both the MIDI IN and OUT
terminals are connected to a computer, depending on
the computer software the received data may be sent
back to the instrument just as it is. Because of this the
sound generated from the keys and the sound gener-
ated from the returned data are both produced, caus-
ing undesirable effects, such as the sounds canceling
each other out, for example. In this case, either change
the software settings to prevent received data from
being returned, or set the MIDI LOCAL CONTROL to
off.
• This sometimes occurs when electrical equipment
such as a radio or TV is used near the instrument. Try
moving such electrical equipment further away from
the instrument.
• The sound may be coming from a nearby broadcast
station or amateur radio station. If the sound is bother-
some, consult your dealer or service center.
• This instrument has a built-in power source that heats
the cabinet to some degree. This is not an indication of
trouble.
