If you don't hear this in headphones:
It is likely that there is some other reason (such as resonances within
the unit). Please contact your dealer, the nearest Roland Service Center,
or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the "Information. "
If you set the volume to the maximum setting, the sound may be
distorted depending on how you perform. If this occurs, turn down
the volume.
If you don't hear this in headphones:
Performing at high volumes may cause the speakers or objects
near the unit to resonate. Fluorescent lights or glass doors may also
resonate sympathetically. In particular, this is more likely to occur for
lower notes and higher volumes. You can take the following measures
