Troubleshooting
When the VS-2000 does not perform the way you expect, check the following points before you suspect a
malfunction. If this does not resolve the problem, Contact your dealer or a qualified Roland Service Center.
Recording/playback
No sound
❍
Are the VS-2000 and the connected equipment powered-on?
❍
Is the equipment connected correctly?
❍
Are the audio cables connected correctly?
❍
Could the audio cables be broken?
❍
Are the volume controls of the connected amp or mixer raised?
❍
Are the output jacks to which you’ve connected the same as the output jacks specified in the master section of
the mixer?
➔
Check the settings to verify the jacks from which the signal of each bus is being sent.
❍
Are the master fader and the MONITOR knob raised?
❍
Could one or more channel faders be set to “-
∞
dB”?
➔
The volume levels in the track mixer are controlled by the VS-2000’s channel faders. However, the position of
the VS-2000’s faders may differ from the actual fader values. Check the values in the Mixer Channel View
screen.
➔
The volume levels in the input mixer are controlled in the Mixer Channel View screen.
➔
The volume levels of the effect return mixer are controlled in the Mixer Channel View screen.
❍
No sound from the headphones.
➔
Is the PHONES knob raised? Is the MONITOR knob raised?
❍
The device connected to an INPUT jack is not loud enough.
➔
Could you be using a connection cable that contains a built-in resistor?
Use a cable that does not contain a built-in resistor (e.g., the Roland PCS series).
❍
In the Mixer Channel View screen, could the “MIX” switch be turned “Off”?
❍
Playback does not occur when you press [PLAY].
➔
Could [PLAY] be blinking green?
If the EXT SYNC indicator is blinking, the VS-2000 is waiting to receive MTC from an external MIDI device.
Operate your external MIDI device to make it transmit MTC.
➔
Could the track status be turned off ([TRACK/STATUS] unlit)?
Press [TRACK/STATUS] to make it light green (ready for playback).
➔
Could you be using the Solo function or Mute function?
➔
Could you have selected a project whose Recording Mode is “M24”?
If the Recording Mode is “M24,” the VS-2000 will operate as a twelve-track recorder (tracks 1–12).
Tracks 13–17/18 will be unavailable. However, tracks 17/18 will function as dedicated rhythm tracks.
➔
Are you attempting to play back a phrase that is shorter than 0.5 seconds?
➔
Could the track be blank?
➔
Are you playing back the mastering track?
If the mastering track is playing, conventional tracks 1–17/18 will not play.
❍
Can’t play back tracks 17/18.
➔
Could tracks 17/18 be assigned as rhythm tracks?

❍
Could tracks 17/18 be assigned as rhythm tracks?
❍
Could the track 17/18 (rhythm tracks) [TRACK/STATUS] be dark (muted)?

Could you have selected an empty rhythm arrangement or pattern?
Playback won’t be available if you’ve selected a rhythm arrangement/pattern of a user/project group in which
you have not stored a rhythm arrangement/pattern.
