What to do if an error message appears when recording audio to the internal hard disk drive on my Yamaha Musical Instrument?
- S
  Shane HernandezSep 23, 2025
  If an error message appears in the Audio Recorder/Player function, and audio cannot be recorded to the internal hard disk drive, the data on the hard disk drive is fragmented and cannot be used as is. To resolve this, first back up the data to a computer by using the USB storage mode, then format the drive, and finally copy the data back to the drive (using the USB storage mode again). Performing this copy/restore operation effectively defragments the drive, allowing you to use it again.

  If the size of the Song data is large (about 300 KB or greater), the Song cannot be selected because the data is too large to be read by the instrument.

Why can't I copy or cut an audio song in the internal HDD of my Yamaha Musical Instrument?
- F
  fnorrisSep 13, 2025
  If an audio song in the internal HDD cannot be copied or cut on your Yamaha Musical Instrument, the audio song file name (which contains the file path, internally) in the internal HDD may be too long. Shorten the song name or copy/paste the file to a higher folder level.

Why does the sound change unexpectedly when I change a rhythm Voice on my Yamaha Musical Instrument?
- S
  Stacey HicksSep 14, 2025
  When changing the rhythm/percussion Voices (drum kits, etc.) of the Style and Song from the VOICE parameter, the detailed settings related to the drum voice are reset, and in some cases you may be unable to restore the original sound. In the case of Song playback, you can restore the original sound by returning to the beginning of the Song and playing back from that point. In the case of Style play, you can restore the original sound by selecting the same Style again.

  Brandon RiveraSep 5, 2025
  If the sound of a song is too low or cannot be heard on your Yamaha Musical Instrument, check the position of the Cross Fader. If the Cross Fader is set to the right position, you can not hear MIDI song. If this is the case, adjust the Cross Fader to the center position.
