15 – Troubleshooting
The SD card is not recognized.
Confirm that the SD card is completely inserted.
Why can't I hear any sound when I play back?
Are the track faders of the tracks set to a proper level?
Is the
STEREO fader set to a proper level?
Have you connected the
PHONES or MONITOR OUT
jack to your monitoring system properly?
Is your monitoring system set up correctly?
Is the
MONITOR LEVEL knob set to a proper level?
(PHONES jack only)
The sound I am trying to record sounds distorted.
Aren't the
INPUT A to H TRIM knobs on the top panel
of the unit set too high?
Isn't the input source too loud?
Isn't the monitoring system distorted because the
monitor level is too high?
Why can't I record?
You must have at least one track in recording standby
(REC indicator flashing) before you start recording by
pressing the RECORD (0).
Are input sources assigned to tracks? (See "Assigning
inputs" on page 44.)
Noise occurs if I connect a passive guitar or bass
directly.
Connecting another device to the unit's stereo output
(STEREO OUT) jacks might reduce the noise.
This might be caused by interference noise from
another device. If there is a power amplifier or other
device that uses a large transformer, a fluorescent
light or something similar nearby, you might be able
to reduce the noise by changing the distance and
orientation of this unit in relation to such equipment.
You might also be able to reduce the noise if you use
this unit's GROUND connector to ground the unit.
The disc tray does not open.
The disc tray will not open unless the CD mode is
selected (
CD
screen or its sub-menu is displayed).
Return Recorder mode to
Multi Track
mode,
press the CD button to open the
CD
menu screen, and
then press the F3 (-) button or the disc eject button
on the front panel.
An Audio CD that I made cannot be played on an
Audio CD player.
Did you finalize the Audio CD?
An Audio CD that has not been finalized cannot be
played on an ordinary Audio CD player. Finalize the CD
and try again (you cannot record on the CD any more
after finalizing it).
Aren't you trying to play a CD-RW disc on an Audio CD
player that does not support CD-RW media?
Use a compatible Audio CD player or create a new
Audio CD using a CD-R disc (depending on the Audio
CD player, even a CD-R disc might not be played back).
I cannot or fail to create an Audio CD.
Are you using a blank CD (CD-R/CD-RW) that is
supported by this unit?
This unit does not support CD-RW Ultra Speed or CD-
RW Ultra Speed+ discs.
Depending on the manufacturer and type of CD-R/CD-
RW, writing might fail, writing might succeed but result
in an unreadable disc, or writing might take a long
time. In any of these cases, try using a CD-R/CD-RW
from a different manufacturer or of a different brand.
