Troubleshooting

No sound / Low volume:

Is the RV-5 properly connected to your instrument?

Check the connection once more (p. 8).

Is the volume turned down on any guitar amp or effects device you have connect- ed?

Check the settings of the connected device.

Do you have a stereo plug connected? This device will not operate properly with stereo plugs. Please use mono plugs.

Are you connected only to INPUT-B? The direct sound is not output when you connect only to INPUT-B. The outputs are muted when the effect is off, and no sound is output (p. 11).

Sound is distorted:

Is the battery low?

As the battery is drained, the CHECK in- dicator dims, and the RV-5 may start to function incorrectly. Replace with a new battery (p. 12).

Could the level of the sound being input be excessive?

With some guitars, distortion may be pro- duced. Be careful of your guitar’s output level.
