No power
Check that the POWER switch on the back of the
PSD340 is in the ON position. Check that the power
cord is securely plugged in. If the STANDBY light is lit,
slide the POWER switch to the right.
The chromatic tuner does not show the
same note I am playing on my instrument
The Chromatic Tuner determines which frequency is
being played and displays the corresponding note in
concert pitch. Use this guide for transposing instruments.
When a Bb instrument plays:
D D# E F F# G G# A A# B C C#
or an Eb instrument plays:
A A# B C C# D D# E F F# G G#
or an F instrument plays:
G G# A A# B C C# D D# E F F#
The display will read:
C C# D D# E F F# G G# A A# B
Playback
No sound from CD player drive
1) If you wish to use the internal speaker, make sure
the SPEAKER switch on the front panel is set to ON.
2) If you are listening through the internal speaker or
headphones, set the PHONE SELECTOR switch on the
front panel to LINE OUT and turn the PHONE/
SPEAKER LEVEL knob clockwise.
3) If you are listening through powered speakers
connected to the LINE OUT, make sure to turn up the
LINE OUT level control knob on the front panel.
4) Enter the menu and select “CD LEVEL.” Confirm that
CD level is set for 0dB.
No sound from CD recording drive
Make sure the PHONE SELECTOR switch is set to LINE
OUT. This is the only setting that lets you monitor
playback of the CD-R drive via headphones or the built-
in speaker.
No CD Graphics when playing a CD+G disc
1 Confirm that the CD+G disc is in the CD player drive
and not the CD recording drive.
2 Confirm proper connections (see pg. 29)
3 Make sure that CD+G function is set for ON (See
pg 24)

Mics plugged in, no levels on the VU
meters
1) Check the LINE/MIC/INST and LINE/MIC/INT MIC.
These switches should be set for “MIC.”
2) Check that the LEVEL control knobs are turned up.
3) If you are using a condenser mic, make sure the
required power is provided, either by Phantom Power
supply or batteries. Check your mic manufacturer’s
recommendations. If Phantom Power is required,
switch the Phantom Power switch on the back panel
to ON.
4) Check that controls for the CD player drive are lit. If
control for the CD recorder drive is active, you must
be in RECORD PAUSE mode to observe levels in the
VU meters.
“Squealing” sound when recording
with internal or external mics
You’ve created a feedback loop. Switch the SPEAKER
switch on the front panel to OFF. To monitor accompani-
ment CDs when using “REC WITH CD” mode, use
headphones.
Only recording to one channel
1) Find the front panel switch labeled “SPLIT/STEREO/
MIX.” Chances are this switch is set for SPLIT or
STEREO. If you want your mic or instrument to
record to both channels equally, move this switch to
the MIX position.
2) While in RECORD PAUSE mode, enter the menu to
select “RECORD BALANCE.” Confirm that the
balance is set in the CENTER position.
The display reads “NOT POSSIBLE”
Check if the display also reads CD rather than CD-R. If
the disc in the CD-R drive has been finalized or is not a
CD-R/RW, the PSD340 will flash “NOT POSSIBLE”
instead of entering record mode.
