      If your Roland Musical Instrument sounds wrong or buzzy, here are a few things to check: * If the volume is at the maximum, it may be distorted depending on your performance. Try turning down the volume. * Performing at high volumes may cause the speakers or objects near the unit to resonate. Locate the unit 30 cm (12 inches) away from walls or other surfaces. Keep the volume down. Move away from the objects that are resonating. * If you hear this in headphones, please contact your dealer or a nearby Roland service center.

      If the pitch of your Roland Musical Instrument keyboard or song is incorrect, consider the following: * Check the Transpose settings. * Check the Master Tune setting. * The notes of a piano are tuned using a unique method (stretched tuning). This is the way an acoustic piano should sound.

    Why does my Roland f-20 Musical Instrument power turn off on its own?
    • R
      Richard WilliamsAug 26, 2025
      Your Roland Musical Instrument is equipped with an auto-off feature. When 30 minutes have passed since you last played or operated the unit, the power will turn off automatically. If you don’t want the power to turn off automatically, turn the “Auto Off” setting to “OFF”.

      Laura JenkinsAug 28, 2025
      If all the LEDs other than the POWER button are blinking on your Roland Musical Instrument, excessive current flow occurred at the USB MEMORY port. Check whether there might be a problem with the USB flash drive. Next, turn the power off, then back on again.

    Why does the sound of the higher notes suddenly change from a certain key on my Roland f-20?
    • J
      James JonesSep 4, 2025
      On an acoustic piano, the approximately one and a half octaves of notes at the upper end of the keyboard will continue sounding regardless of the damper pedal. This unit faithfully simulates this characteristic of acoustic pianos.

    Why is a high-pitched ringing heard from my Roland Musical Instrument?
    • T
      Tina PerrySep 7, 2025
      If you hear a high-pitched ringing from your Roland Musical Instrument, it could be due to piano sounds that have a brilliant and crisp character containing substantial high-frequency components. You may be able to minimize it by decreasing the reverb. If you don’t hear this in headphones, please contact your dealer or the nearest Roland service center.

      Matthew WilliamsSep 12, 2025
      Communication may be unstable depending on the usage of the radio frequency spectrum. Move the wireless LAN access point and the F-20 closer to each other. Change the channel setting of the wireless LAN access point.
