Troubleshooting

Power does not turn on

• Make sure that the AC adapter is correctly plugged into this instrument and into the AC outlet.

Power turns off abruptly

• The Auto Power Off feature automatically activates when you haven't played or operated this
unit for four hours (this is the factory setting). If you don't need the Auto Power Off feature, set
Auto Power Off to "Disable" in UTILITY / Setup.

No sound is heard when the pads are played

• Turn the MAIN VOL. and PHONES knobs clockwise.
• In UTILITY / Setup  Audio In & Out, check whether Sub output and output OFF have not been
enabled in the Out Routing page.
• Check whether any functions have been set using the PAD FUNCTION in UTILITY.

Input/output volume is too low

• Turn the MAIN VOL. and PHONES knobs clockwise to adjust the output volume.
• Adjust the input/output volume on the Setup / Audio In & Out page.
• The PHONES output volume may seem a little low if you are listening with headphones of 80 Ω
impedance or greater.

The sound doesn't stop even when the SOUND OFF button is pressed

• SOUND OFF stops the pads from sounding, but it does not stop the output of the LOOPER, IFX
or MFX.
• If you're using an effect with a long reverb tail, the sound may not stop right away even though
you've pressed SOUND OFF.

Can't hear the LINE IN (MIC IN) and USB Audio IN sound

• Turn the MAIN VOL. and PHONES knobs clockwise.
In UTILITY / Setup  Audio In & Out, check whether the AUX IN Select and the Gain/Level set-
tings for the respective inputs are set correctly from the Input page.
• Check whether the AUX In and USB In for the Out Routing is not set to "SUB" or "OFF".
• When using USB Audio IN, check whether the audio output destination of the computer that's
connected to this unit is set to "MPS-10".

The metronome can't be heard, even when turned on

• Turn the MAIN VOL. and PHONES knobs clockwise.
• In UTILITY / Setup  Audio In & Out, check whether the Metronome setting for Out Routing is
set correctly.
• In UTILITY / METRONOME, adjust the Level setting so that you can hear the metronome.

Can't import SAMPLE files from USB flash drive

• Make sure that you've formatted the USB flash drive on this unit before you use it.
• The files that can be imported into the MPS-10 are as follows:
 WAV files (PCM format)
 AIF files
 44.1/48kHz, 16-bit
 Maximum of 1 hour long per file
• Check whether the file is in the "MPS_10"  "SAMPLE" folder that's created when you format
the storage media.
• Japanese filenames do not display correctly. Use single-byte alphanumeric characters (letters,
numbers or symbols) for the filename.
• Check whether there is enough free space in internal memory to accommodate the file size of
the SAMPLE you want to import.
