  If you are not getting any sound from your Kohler Musical Instrument, here are a few things to check: * Ensure nothing is plugged into the HEADPHONES connector, as this disables the internal speakers. * If using external amplification, verify the connections and power status of your amp or mixer. * Confirm the MASTER VOLUME slider is not set to “0”. * Check that the Local and Speaker parameters are turned On. * Adjust the Attack parameter to a lower value and the Volume parameter to a higher value.
