appear in the screen if the temperature is below zero degrees Celsius (32 degrees
Fahrenheit).

“washed out” at the
edges of the screen
These occur due to the nature of a liquid crystal display, and do not indicate a malfunction.

Reverberation remains
even if you defeat the
Reverb effect
The RD-700GX’s piano sound faithfully simulates the depth and resonance of an acoustic
piano, and this may give the impression of reverberation even if you’ve defeated the Reverb
effect.
The sound of the higher
notes suddenly changes
from a certain key
On an acoustic piano, the approximately one and a half octaves of notes at the top of the
keyboard will continue sounding regardless of the damper pedal. These notes also have a
somewhat different tonal character. RD-700GX faithfully simulate this characteristic of
acoustic pianos. On the RD-700GX, the range that is unaffected by the damper pedal will
change according to the key control setting.
High-pitched ringing is
heard
Piano sounds that have a brilliant and crisp character contain substantial high-frequency
components that may sound as though a metallic ringing has been added. This is because
the character of an actual piano is being faithfully reproduced, and is not a malfunction. This
ringing is more obtrusive if the reverb effect is applied heavily, so you may be able to
minimize it by decreasing the reverb.
Low notes sound wrong,
or are buzzy
With certain tones, the sounds may seem to be distorted.
Turn down the volume. Alternatively, lower the master gain setting.
