Troubleshooting
If the SonicCell does not function in the way you expect, first check the following points. If this does not resolve the problem, consult
your dealer or a nearby Roland Service Station.
* If any sort of message is being displayed on the screen during an operation, refer to Error Messages (p. 191).
Q
The power does not turn on.
A
Make sure that the SonicCell’s AC adaptor is correctly
connected to the AC outlet and to the SonicCell itself. (p.
18)
Q
Moving the SAMPLING RATE switch does not change the
sampling rate
A
he sampling rate will not change if you simply move the
SAMPLING RATE switch while the power is on. You must
turn the power off, then on again.
Then use the INPUT screen or USB Audio screen to verify
that the sampling rate has changed. (p. 140, p. 142)
Q
There is no sound.
A
Check the following points.
• Is the power for connected amps and speakers turned on?
Is the volume turned all the way down?
• Is the INPUT LEVEL knob turned all the way down?
• Have connections been made correctly?
• Can you hear sound through headphones?
If there is sound in the headphones, it is possible that the
connection cables are broken, or that your amp/mixer
has malfunctioned. Check your cables and amp/mixer
system once again.
• Is the MIDI receive channel correct?
Make sure that the MIDI transmit channel of the connected
device matches the receive channel of the SonicCell (p.
177).
• Have all tones in the patch been turned off?
Turn on “Tone Switch.” (p. 88)
• The Part level settings may be too low.
Access the Level parameter, and check the level of each
part (p. 69).
• Are the Effect settings correct?
Check the Effect settings ON or OFF, the Effect Balance or
Level. (p. 75, p. 132)
• Is the Wave Expansion Board properly installed?
When selecting the settings that stipulate the use of EXP-A,
B waves, Patches, or Rhythm Sets, check that the specified
Wave Expansion Board is installed properly in the
specified slot (p. 48, p. 51).
• Has the volume been lowered by MIDI messages (volume
messages or expression messages) received from an
external MIDI device?
• Is USB MIDI THRU set to ON?
When USB MIDI THRU is ON, there will be sound if the
sequencer software on the computer that is connected by
a USB cable is set to THRU (p. 177).
Q
A specific Part does not sound
A
Check the following points.
• Has the volume level of the part been lowered?
Adjust the Level to raise the volume of the part that is not
heard (p. 69).
• Could the part be set to “M” (mute)?
Set this to “-”. (p. 58)
Q
Specific pitch ranges do not sound
A
Has a restricted range of notes been set?
If a specific range of notes does not sound, check the Key
Range settings for the Patch Tone and the Performance
Part.

Key Range Lower/Upper (p. 71)
• Tone Key Range
Key Range Lower/Upper (p. 112, p. 113)
Q
Audio signals from the computer are not heard
A
Could the audio signal from the computer have a different
sampling rate than the SonicCell itself?
Change the SAMPLING RATE switch of the SonicCell to
match the sampling rate of the audio signal.
* If you change the setting of the SAMPLING RATE switch
while the power is on, you’ll need to turn the power off,
then on again.
Q
The sound is distorted.
A
Check the following points.
• Is an effect which distorts the sound being applied?
If the sound for a specific patch or part is distorted, lower
the volume level on that part.
If the overall sound is distorted, adjust Master Level and
Master EQ to lower the volume.
• Use the Sound Parameter in the System to lower the
Output Gain (p. 176).
Q
Pitch is incorrect.
A
Check the following points.
• Is the tuning of the SonicCell incorrect?
Check the Master Tune setting (p. 176).
