How to turn on Roland Electronic Keyboard if it doesn't power on?
If your Roland Electronic Keyboard isn't turning on, the AC adapter may not be connected correctly; ensure it is properly connected. Alternatively, the batteries might be exhausted; try recharging them.
Why is there no sound coming from my Roland Electronic Keyboard?
There might be several reasons why you're not hearing any sound. First, make sure the [VOLUME] knob isn't set too low; turn it towards “Max.” Also, this unit doesn't have built-in speakers, so ensure headphones or speakers are connected. Check that the [LEVEL] bar or the LEVEL [ ] [ ] button volume of each section isn't set to “0.” If you're using an expression pedal, make sure its volume isn't set too low. If all harmonic bars are raised, you won’t hear any organ sound, so adjust them. If Transistor Organ is selected, ensure that the [ ] bar and the [ ] bar at the right edge are not both raised. Finally, if you’ve assigned the keyboard to play drum sounds or sound effects, turn the drum sounds or sound effects off or play keys to which drums sounds are assigned.
What to do if Roland V-combo VR-09 sound is distorted or cracked?
If the sound from your Roland Electronic Keyboard is distorted or cracked, it could be due to the volume of each part being too high; use the [LEVEL] bar or the LEVEL [ ] [ ] buttons of each section to lower the volume. Also, check if the overdrive effect is applied; if so, turn the [OVERDRIVE] knob all the way to the left.
Why is the pitch off on my Roland V-combo VR-09 Electronic Keyboard?
If the pitch is off on your Roland Electronic Keyboard, transpose may be in effect. Hold down the [TRANSPOSE] button and press the [?] and [+] buttons to cancel the transpose setting (the [TRANSPOSE] button will go dark). Also, the tuning might be incorrect, so adjust the MASTER TUNE to “440.0 Hz.” If you are playing keys beyond the recommended range while set for an octave, adjust the octave setting.
Why effect won’t apply on Roland V-combo VR-09 Electronic Keyboard?
If an effect isn't applying to your Roland Electronic Keyboard, and you’ve switched registrations, the physical position of the effect knobs may no longer match the actual values of the settings. Operate the effect knob to make sure that the setting is not at the minimum value. When used in conjunction with the rotary effect, use the ROTARY SOUND [ON/OFF] button to turn on the rotary effect if you want to produce the sensation that two rotary speaker units are being used with the “TWIN ROTARY” multi-effect.
What to do if there is no sound from Roland V-combo VR-09 when external devices are connected?
If you're not hearing any sound from your Roland Electronic Keyboard when external devices are connected, ensure that the power of the connected external devices is turned on using the correct procedure.
Why is modulation applied on Roland Electronic Keyboard even when the rotary effect is off?
If modulation is applied even when the rotary effect is off on your Roland Electronic Keyboard, “TWIN ROTARY” may be selected as the multi-effect type. Either turn the [MFX] knob to minimize the effect, or change the multi-effect type.
Why is the device connected to the EXT INPUT jack not loud enough on my Roland V-combo VR-09?
If the device connected to the EXT INPUT jack on your Roland Electronic Keyboard isn't loud enough, you might be using a connection cable that contains a resistor. When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to the EXT INPUT jack may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.
Why can't I split the keyboard on my Roland Electronic Keyboard?
If you can’t split the keyboard on your Roland Electronic Keyboard, the MIDI IN Mode might be set to “KEYBOARD.” Unless you’ve connected a MIDI keyboard and are using a two-manual setup, set the MIDI IN mode to either “MODE 1” or “MODE 2.”
Why is the pedal part sound heard on Roland V-combo VR-09 even though I’m not playing the pedalboard?
If you're hearing the pedal part sound on your Roland Electronic Keyboard even though you’re not playing the pedalboard, manual bass may be selected. If manual bass is selected, the lower part will produce the sound of the pedal part, and pressing the pedalboard will not produce sound. Turn off the manual bass setting.
