When playing back a Song, some channels do
not play.
The tempo, beat, measure and music notation
is not displayed correctly.
The vibrato effect applied when a Song is
recorded sounds different when it is played
back.
Audio Recorder/Player
Audio files cannot be selected.
Recorded file is played back at a different vol-
ume compared to when it was recorded.
An audio song in the internal HDD cannot be
copied or cut.
In the Audio Recorder/Player function, an error
message appears and audio cannot be
recorded to the internal hard disk drive.
Mixing Console
The sound seems strange or different than
expected when changing a rhythm Voice
(drum kit, etc.) of the Style or Song from the
Mixer.
Microphone/Vocal Harmony
The microphone input signal cannot be
recorded.
Harmony can be heard in addition to the
microphone sound.
The Vocal Harmony effect sounds distorted or
out-of-tune.
ASSIGNABLE FOOT PEDAL jacks
The on/off setting of the footswitch connected to the
ASSIGNABLE FOOT PEDAL jack is reversed.
AUX IN jacks
Sound input to the AUX IN jacks is interrupted.
USB TO HOST terminal/MIDI terminals
When connecting the instrument to a com-
puter, the computer freezes.
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 75).
• Change the SONG CHANNEL setting to "PLAY" via the SETUP window of the Vocal
Harmony Type selection display (page 90).
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.
This may occur when you use S.Art2! 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:
• Select a Voice AFTER you set the Modulation wheel to minimum (down) position.
• If you want to cancel the vibrato effect, set the Modulation wheel to minimum position
AFTER Song recording starts.
The file format may not be compatible with the instrument. The compatible formats are:
MP3 and WAV. DRM protected files cannot be played back.
The audio playback volume has been changed. Setting the volume value to 90 plays
back the file at the same volume as when it was recorded (page 61).
The audio song file name (which contains the file path, internally) in the internal HDD
may be too long. Shorten the song name or copy/paste the file to a higher folder level.
The data on the hard disk drive is fragmented and cannot be used as is. Since there is
no defragmentation function in the Audio Recorder/Player, the drive can only be defrag-
mented by formatting it. To do this, first back up the data to a computer by using the
USB storage mode (page 104), then format the drive, and finally copy the data back to
the drive (using the USB storage mode again). Performing this copy/restore operation
effectively defragments the drive, allowing you to use it again.
When changing the rhythm/percussion Voices (drum kits, etc.) of the Style and Song
from the VOICE parameter, the detailed settings related to the drum voice are reset,
and in some cases you may be unable to restore the original sound. In the case of
Song playback, you can restore the original sound by returning to the beginning of the
Song and playing back from that point. In the case of Style play, you can restore the
original sound by selecting the same Style again.
The microphone input signal cannot be recorded by Song recording. Use the Audio
Recorder/Player function (page 76).
Vocal Harmony is set to on. Turn Vocal Harmony off (page 89).
Your vocal microphone may be picking up extraneous sounds, such as the Style sound
from the instrument. In particular, bass sounds can cause mistracking of the Vocal Har-
mony. To remedy this:
• Sing as closely to the microphone as possible.
• Use a directional microphone.
• Turn down the Master volume, Style volume, or Song volume control (pages 16, 61).
• Separate the microphone from the external speakers as far as possible.
Turn the instrument's power off, then turn it on again making sure not to press the foot-
switch.
The output volume of the external device connected to this instrument is too low.
Increase the output volume of the external device. The volume level reproduced via this
instrument can be adjusted by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control.
The generic driver may not be compatible with the instrument. When data communica-
tion is unstable or some problem occurs, download the Yamaha Standard USB-MIDI
driver from the following URL:
