    Why is the overall volume low or no sound heard on my Yamaha P-65?

      Michelle FreemanJul 31, 2025
      There could be several reasons for low or absent sound. The master volume might be set too low, so adjust it to an appropriate level using the [MASTER VOLUME] control. Also, ensure that headphones are not connected to the headphone jack. Finally, verify that Local Control is turned ON.
