Troubleshooting
Internal hard disk/CD-RW drive
Hard disk free area
❍
Free space on the hard disk does not increase even if you use Region Erase to erase an unwanted track.
➔
When you execute Region Cut/Erase and Phrase Delete, it will appear that the performance data has
disappeared. However in reality, the erased performance data still remains on the hard disk in order to allow
Undo to be performed.
If you want to increase the free space on the hard disk, execute the Project Optimize operation.
Hard disk data is not saved correctly
❍
Could you have powered-off the VS-2000 without performing the shutdown process?
➔
You must perform the shutdown process to make sure you have saved the recorded performance and turn the
power off safely.
❍
Could you have turned off the power while the hard disk was operating?
❍
Could the hard disk have been subjected to a strong impact?
➔
Reformat the hard disk. We recommend that you also execute a Surface Scan. If an error occurs when you
execute Surface Scan, set “Physical Format” to “On” and try formatting the disk again.
❍
If the hard disk malfunctions, there may be cases in which the stored contents will be lost.
➔
The hard disk is an item that eventually will wear out. You should think of a hard disk as temporary storage
location—not as a permanent storage—and always back up irreplaceable recorded performances onto CD-R/
RW discs.
Can’t use the internal CD-RW drive
❍
Can’t make the CD-RW drive the current drive.
➔
Could you have inserted a disk that the VS-2000 cannot read (such as an audio CD or blank CD)?
❍
Is a CD-R/RW disc inserted?
➔
Insert a CD-R/RW disc before you perform an operation on the CD-RW drive.
❍
Backup data saved on a CD-R/RW disc is not recognized by the CD-ROM drive in your personal computer.
➔
The VS-2000 backup data format is specific to the Roland VS series. This data cannot be used by devices other
than the VS series.
❍
While writing or reading a CD-R/RW disc, error messages such as “Medium Error!”, “Unusable Sector!”, or
“Operation Failed!” are displayed, and the operation is aborted.
➔
It may be that the CD-R/RW disc is scratched or damaged in some way. Try a different disc (a new disc), and
see whether the same problem occurs.
➔
It is possible that the CD-RW drive is broken. The read/write mechanism (laser pickup) inside a CD-RW
drive is something that wears out eventually. If the drive is still unable to read/write correctly, please contact
the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page
(Owner’s Manual).
An audio CD created by the VS-2000’s CD-RW drive won’t play on a
consumer CD player
❍
Did you finalize the disc?
➔
A CD-R disc written using the Track At Once method must be finalized.
Turn the “FINALIZE” setting “On” in the CD-R Write screen when you write the disc, or execute finalization
by itself.
❍
Are you using a CD-RW disc?
➔
Some consumer CD players are unable to play audio written to a CD-RW disc. You can use the VS-2000’s CD
Player function to listen to the disc.
