Troubleshooting
if the ME-8 does not work properly (such as no sound is heard)
first check through the following items. If you are still unable to
find a solution, contact the retailer where you have purchased
your ME-8, or the nearest Roland Service Station.
(No sound heard / sound very low)
Check that the ME-8 is connected securely and correctly
with other devices.
Check that the volume is not set too low.
Check the volume on the amplifier or mixer connected to the
ME-8.
Check that you can hear sound through the headphones.
If you can hear sound, there could be something wrong with
the cable that connects to the amplifier, or with the controls
on the external device. Check the cable and the controls on
the external device.
Check that the values for parameters related to volume are
not set too low.
Check that the values of parameters that are related with
volume (such as "LEVEL") are not set too low. (p. 9)
Could the level have been lowered as a result of the
Expression pedal?
If ASSIGN (EXP) is setto "4 (FOOT VOLUME)," no sound will
be heard when the pedal is at its original (lifted) position.
Check that the ME-8 is not set to the Tuner mode. The Tuner
mode mutes all the sounds.

specify the Number of a Patch.
