Troubleshooting
Q
Effects not applied.
A
Check the following points.
• The “MFX,” “Chorus,” “Reverb” or “Mastering” effect
switches may have been turned off.
Turn the Effect Switch ON. (p. 76, p. 133)
• Are the various effect settings correct? (p. 75, p. 132, p.
144)
• If the send level of each effect is set to 0, the effect will not
be applied. Check the settings.
• Even with send levels to each effect set at 0, effects are
not applied if the Multi-effects Output Level, the Chorus
Level, or the Reverb Level is set to 0. Check each setting.
• If Output Assign is set to other than “MFX,” the Multi-
effects sound will not be output.
• If Output Assign is set to “PATCH” for each Part of the
Performance, the sound will be output according to the
Output Assign settings of the Patch (for each Tone) which
is assigned to those Parts. This means that if Output
Assign for the Patch (each Tone) is set to other than
“MFX,” the Multi-effects sound will not be output.
Q
The Modulation or other controller is always on.
A
Check the Matrix Controller settings. (p. 95)
The SonicCell allows you to use the Matrix Control to
control Patches in real time. The Matrix Control functions
as the control source for the Control Change and other
MIDI messages received by the SonicCell, and makes
changes to the various Patch parameters based on these
messages.
Depending on these settings, the SonicCell may be
responding to MIDI messages sent from external MIDI
devices, and may result the Patches sounding different
than intended.
Q
Raising the chorus or reverb send level for each part of a
performance still does not cause the effect to be applied
sufficiently.
A
Although you can make Send level settings to the Chorus
and Reverb for each individual Part in a Performance,
these values only set the upper limit of the Chorus and
Reverb Send levels for the Patch used. Accordingly, even
when the value is set to the maximum of 127, if the Send
level is lowered in the Patch being used, there will be no
effect. In addition, different Patch Chorus and Reverb
Send level settings can be used according to whether or
not the multi-effects are used.
Q
Using the Matrix Control or other such means to control
the LFO results in noise when the Pan is changed
suddenly.
A
Lower the change in speed (LFO Rate).
Due to the specialized processing used for the Pan, which
alters the volume level in each of the left and right sides,
sudden Pan movements causing rapid changes in these
levels creates large changes in volume, and noise from
this may be audible as a result.
Q
Multi-effect 43: TAP DELAY or other delay time value is set
to the note, and then the tempo is slowed down, does the
delay time not change beyond a fixed length?
A
Such Delay time settings have an upper limit, so if the
upper limit of a value set to the note is exceeded when the
tempo is retarded, that upper value cannot rise any
further. The upper time limit for each is the maximum
value that can be set other than the numerical value for
the beat.
Q
I’ve saved (written) the effect settings of a performance,
but they don’t seem to be applied.
A
Could you be using the effect settings of the patch?
If the MFX 1–3 Source, Chorus Source, or Reverb Source
setting is set to “P1--P16,” the performance’s effect settings
will not be used; the effect settings of the patch/rhythm set
assigned to the specified part will be used instead.
If you want to use the performance’s effect settings, set this
to “PFM” (p. 80).
Q
The Performance sounds different than when it was
written.
A
Check the following points.
• If you have modified the settings of a patch used by a
performance, or if the temporary patch of the
performance has been modified by an external MIDI
device, these patches must also be saved.
If patches used by a performance have been edited when
you write that performance, the SonicCell will display a
message asking whether you want to discard these
patches. In such cases, first save the patch (p. 116) or
rhythm set (p. 131), and then save the performance (p.
73) again.
• The Mastering Effect settings may have changed. (These
settings are not stored as part of a performance.)
Q
Patches sound different than when written.
A
Check the following points.
• The write operation cannot be used to save Patches as
changed in Patch mode using Control Change messages
from an external MIDI device.
Refer to “MIDI Implementation” (p. 246) for more on the
Control Change messages that are received.
• The Mastering Effect settings may have changed. (These
settings are not stored as part of a patch.)
Q
Data backed up to USB memory cannot be restored to the
SonicCell.
• It is possible that the USB memory was not formatted
correctly. The SonicCell can use USB memory that has
been formatted as FAT. If your USB memory was
formatted using any other method, please re-format it
using FAT.
