Troubleshooting
Strange sounds or noises are heard
when playing with piano sounds.
The keyboard has no touch
responsiveness.
Staccato playing causes double
notes when Trigger Mode is set to
Fast.
Sound cuts out momentarily when
selecting a Tonewheel organ sound.
STORE
OctaveShift cannot be stored to a
SOUND memory.
The POWER ON default setting is
different to the setting that it is
stored.
The metronome click/rhythm
pattern does not change when the
SETUP is selected.

The MP7SE stagel piano attempts to reproduce the rich variety of tones created
by an acoustic grand piano as accurately as possible. This includes various
resonances, noises, and other subtle characteristics that contribute to the
overall piano playing experience.
While these additional tones are intended to enhance the realism of the
instrument, it is possible to reduce their prominence, or disable the effects
altogether using the following settings in the Virtual Technician menu.
The noise occurs when the damper pedal is depressed and released.
 Damper Noise
The noise occurs after a key is released.
 Fall-back Noise, Key-off Effect
The sound has a metallic characteristic.
 Key-off Effect, Undamped Resonance, String Resonance
The sound is muffled or too bright.
 Topboard, Voicing
A particular key's level/volume is higher than other keys.
 User KeyVolume
A particular key's pitch is heard as incorrect.
 Temperament, User Temperament, User StretchTuning
Check that the Touch Curve parameter in the EDIT menu is not set to Off.
Check that the Dynamics parameter in the EDIT menu is not set to Off. When
the Dynamics parameter is set to Off, touch response will be disabled.
Check that the Trigger Mode parameter in the EDIT menu is not set to Fast.
When the Trigger Mode parameter is set to Fast/Fast2, touch response will be
disabled.
Some synth sounds such as SynthBass or SawLead etc. are intentionally
prepared not to use touch response. Please adjust the DCA Touch Depth or
DCF Touch Depth parameters to adjust this characteristic.
This is an unfortuante consequence of using the faster trigger modes on a
hammer action keyboard, and not a failure. When staccato playing is required,
please set the Trigger Mode type to 'Normal'.
When entering/exiting Tonewheel organ mode (asigned to DRAWBAR sub-
categories 1~3), there may be a brief loss of sound as the tonewheel simulator is
activated/deactivated. This is normal behaviour.
This is the correct behaviour. Some parameters related to the key range/
velocity functions (OctaveShift, ZoneTranspose, KeyRangeLo/Hi, VelocitySwitch)
are not stored to SOUND memory, but to SETUP memory only.
The POWERON memory will only store the selected SOUND position, not the
individual EDIT menu settings of that SOUND.
In order to memorise EDIT menu settings, please store each zone's sound to the
SOUND memory.
Please store preferred metronome click/rhythm pattern settings to SETUP
memory.
However, please note that if the metronome click or rhythm pattern is running
while a SETUP is selected, the metronome settings will not change.
