What to do if my Yamaha PSR-195 PSR-79 has no sound?
If there is no sound when you play the keyboard or a song, make sure nothing is connected to the PHONES/AUX OUT jack on the rear panel. When headphones are plugged in, no sound will come from the keyboard's speakers.
How to fix the melody if it doesn't play on my Yamaha PSR-195 PSR-79?
If the melody part of a song doesn’t play on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard, check that Melody Guide is turned off.
Why are some notes not playing on my Yamaha Electronic Keyboard?
If some notes are not heard when playing many notes at once on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard, it could be because too many keys are pressed simultaneously. This model is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes.
Why does the sound on my Yamaha PSR-195 PSR-79 sound strange?
If the voices or rhythms sound unusual on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard, the battery power might be too low. Try replacing the batteries.
What to do if the Pad sound is cut off on Yamaha Electronic Keyboard?
If the Pad sound is cut off or sounds unusual on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard, it may be because the keyboard is polyphonic up to a maximum of 16 notes. If a style or song is playing back at the same time as a Pad, some notes/sounds of the Pad may be omitted.
Why does my Yamaha Electronic Keyboard song pause during playback?
If the song plays back to a certain point and then pauses on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard, check that Melody Guide is not set to “Waiting.”
Why does my Yamaha Electronic Keyboard make a popping sound when turned on or off?
A popping sound when the Yamaha Electronic Keyboard is turned on or off is normal. This indicates that the keyboard is receiving electrical power.
Why does the voice sound different on different notes on my Yamaha PSR-195 PSR-79 Electronic Keyboard?
The AWM tone generation method uses multiple recordings (samples) of an instrument across the range of the keyboard; thus, the actual sound of the voice may be slightly different from note to note on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard.
Why can't I hear the rhythm when using PIANO styles on my Yamaha PSR-195 PSR-79 Electronic Keyboard?
When one of the PIANO styles is selected and started, it is normal that the rhythm cannot be heard on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard; the accompaniment of the style can only be heard when accompaniment is set to ON and keys are played in the ACMP section of the keyboard.
Why don't the notes on the display match what I'm playing on my Yamaha PSR-195 PSR-79?
When auto accompaniment is on, the display shows the specific notes of the chords you play in the ACMP section of the keyboard. If you play a single finger chord, or an inversion of a chord, the corresponding chord will be appropriately displayed — even if the display does not exactly match the pressed keys on your Yamaha Electronic Keyboard.
