Solution
Make sure that (1) the power cable is plugged into the outlet, (2) the cable is plugged into the connector on
the back of the instrument, (3) and is not damaged, (4) there are no problems with the mains.
Is the STANDBY LED turned on?
If the power still does not turn on, contact your dealer or the nearest KORG Service Center.
Press the POWER button again and keep it pressed for a few seconds. At the end, the button's LED will turn
off, and the instrument will be set to standby.
Is the MASTER VOLUME knob of the Pa3XLe set to a position other than "0"?
Is the Spearkers parameter turned off? Turn it on.
Check the connections to your amp or mixer.
Make sure that all the components of the amplifying system are turned on.
Is the Local parameter set to off? Turn it on.
Is the Attack parameter value too high? Set it to a lower value, to let the sound start faster. Is the Volume
parameter too low? Set it to a higher value.
When the SPLIT LED is turned on, the keyboard is divided into a Lower part (lower notes, below the split
point) and an Upper part (higher notes, above the split point). Is the Lower track muted? Unmute it.
Do the USER banks contain modified data? Load the appropriate data for the Song or the Style you wish to
playback.
Has one of the USER Drum Kits been modified? Load the appropriate Drum Kits.
Have the Styles or Performances been modified? Load the appropriate data (Styles or Performances).
Make sure that the Damper pedal calibration is correctly set.
Make sure that the Clock parameter is set to Internal. If you are using the MIDI Clock of another device, you
must set the MIDI Clock parameter to MIDI or USB (depending on the port the Pa3XLe is hooked to the
other device through) and make sure that the external device transmits MIDI Clock data.
Make sure that all MIDI or USB cables are connected correctly.
Make sure that the external device is transmitting through MIDI channels enabled to receive in the Pa3XLe.
Make sure that the MIDI IN Filters of the Pa3XLe do not prevent the reception of messages.
Make sure that the Drum track is set to Drum Mode and the external device has not transposition applied.
This is part of the sound, and not a problem.

old vinyl recording.

the Pa3XLe, it is advisable to remove the device.
