Midi Operations - Yamaha AW 1600 Owner's Manual

Troubleshooting
■ Editing results are not heard in the sound
• Have you selected the virtual track that you recorded?
• Are you using the appropriate editing command?
■ Counter display is not 0 when you return to
the beginning of the song
• The display mode may be set to REMAIN (remaining
recording time).
• If the display mode is set to REL (relative time), the start
point may be specified.
→ Go to the SONG screen SETUP, POINT page and check the
settings.
■ Display indicates DISK FULL, MEMORY
FULL, or REGION FULL, and you cannot
record or edit
• There is insufficient free space, or too many recording
regions. Erase unneeded tracks and then perform the Opti-
mize operation to obtain more free space.
• If the "DISK FULL" message appears, erase unneeded
songs, sample libraries, or WAV files located under the
"Transport" folder. The WAV files under the "Transport"
folder can be erased from your computer when the USB
Storage mode is engaged.
■ The display indicates DISK BUSY during
playback
• The recorded data might be so fragmented that the read
speed is significantly reduced. It might be necessary to
backup all hard disk data to your computer and then re-ini-
tialize the hard disk.
Sampler operations
■ When you press a pad there is no sound, or
the wrong bank is heard
• Have you selected a bank to which the waveform is
assigned?
• A bank change may have been specified in the SONG
screen TEMPO page.
■ The sound is not what you loaded, or the
sound is different depending on whether
you are stopped or playing
• If the playback mode is set to LOOP, the sound will play
according to the monitor tempo specified in the SAMPLE
screen SETUP page while the recorder is stopped, and
will play according to the song tempo while the recorder is
playing.
■ The sound you loaded only plays part of the
way
• Have you made trim settings to shorten the Start–End
region?
• If the playback mode is set to GATE, the sample will play
only while you continue pressing the pad.
• If the playback mode is set to LOOP and Slice is turned
off, the sample will play only for the length of a measure.
