•Amount of reverb or chorus for the keyboard part: Cho Main,

•Overall volume and volume balance (p. 14)

Could you be applying an effect such as overdrive or distortion which intentionally distorts the sound? (p. 20)

Pitch Is Wrong

For some tones, the pitch in certain ranges may sound different than other tones.

Could the tuning of the GW-7 be incorrect?

Check the Master Tune setting. (p. 25)

Could the pitch have been changed by pedal operations or by pitch bend messages received from an external MIDI device?

Notes Are Cut Off
