Why is there no sound in a specific range on my Roland RD-700?
The key range might have been set, limiting the playable notes. Check the settings for the LWR and UPR Parts in the MIDI TX screen. Also, some Tones, like Rhythm Sets, bass Tones, or Timpani, might not sound if they fall outside their recommended range.
What to do if rhythm is not sounding on Roland Musical Instrument?
First, check if the System Clock Source setting in Edit mode is set to MIDI, and if you have an external MIDI device connected. You can't set the tempo with the RD-700 when Clock Source is set to MIDI, so if no external MIDI device is connected, the Rhythm won't sound. Also, make sure the MIDI TX screen is not active. Finally, ensure that the Rhythm Pattern’s Pattern setting in Edit mode is turned ON.
How to resolve effects not applied or effects sound wrong on Roland Musical Instrument?
If a Tone Wheel 1–10 Tone is selected, effects are applied differently than with other effects. Also, check if MULTI EFFECTS [ON/OFF] is set to OFF. Finally, ensure the [CONTROL] knob is set to MFX Control.
Why is pitch odd on Roland Musical Instrument?
Depending on the Tone selected, pitches played in certain registers will be changed and played at other pitches. Also, check if Coarse Tune, Fine Tune, or Stretch Tune is set for any specific Part. Ensure the RD-700 hasn't gone out of tune by checking the System Master Tune settings in Edit mode. Finally, verify that the pitch hasn't been changed by pedal operations or Pitch Bend messages from an external MIDI device.
