→For the input, set “EfMtr” (→ p.47) to In, and while watching level meter E, adjust the volume level ([TRIM] and fader) or “Snd” of each channel.
→For the output, set “EfMtr” to Out, and while watching level meter E, use EDIT EFFECT to try resetting the
parameters of the effect (→ p.12) or lower the input to the effect (referring to the above paragraph on “Input”). ^Is the distortion occurring in the EQ?
→Adjust [TRIM], or “HEQ” or “LEQ.”
■The sound drops out!
^If
→If this problem becomes severe, the display will indi- cate [E] DiskBusy, and the unit will stop. If the sound
skips or if the display indicates [E] DiskBusy, refer to the two items for [E] DiskBusy (→ p.67) and take the appropriate measures.
■Effect does not function!
Internal effect
^Is [EFFECT ASSIGN] turned OFF (indicator dark)? (→ p.64)
^If [EFFECT ASSIGN] is set to MASTER (SEND Type), has the “Snd” level (→ p.58) or “EffRet” level (→ p.64) been set to 0 or near 0?
^Is [REC SELECT] set to DIGITAL IN?
→When DIGITAL IN is selected, [EFFECT ASSIGN] will be OFF.
External effect when using AUX
^Is [EFFECT ASSIGN] set to a setting other than MAS- TER (SEND Type) or OFF (→ p.21)? Also, even if this is turned OFF, the AUX will be ignored (displayed as OFF) if [REC SELECT] is set to DIGITAL IN.
^Has the “Aux” level (→ p.59) or “AuxRet” level (→ p.64) been set to 0 or near 0?
■Cursor does not appear!
^If the recorder is operating (playing etc.), try stopping it.
^If Scrub is ON, try turning it off.
■Switches do not function!
^If the recorder is operating (playing etc.), try stopping it.
^If Scrub is ON, try turning it off.
■MIDI sequencer does not synchronize to the D8!
^Are the MIDI cables connected correctly? (→ p.7, p.36) ^Is a MIDI cable broken?
Cannot use MTC or MIDI Clock to synchronize
^Is the D8 set as the master and the MIDI sequencer as the slave? (→ p.36)
^Does the synchronization output signal setting of the D8 match the input signal setting of the MIDI sequencer? (→ p.36)
^If “TmpSrc” is set to Trk, has MIDI Clock or Tap Tempo data been recorded in the tempo track? (→ p.54)
^Have the settings of the MIDI sequencer been made correctly?
→Refer to the owner’s manual of your MIDI sequencer.
The D8 does not receive MMC
^Has “RcvMMC” been turned OFF? (→ p.37)
^Does the D8’s “Device ID” setting match the Device ID setting of the MIDI sequencer? (→ p.37)
^Has the MIDI sequencer been set to transmit MMC, or does it support MMC?
→Refer to the owner’s manual of your MIDI sequencer.
■External disk drive is not acknowledged!
Not acknowledged in DriveInfo (→ p.49)
^Is the external disk drive connected correctly? (→ p.37) ^Are two or more disk drives set to the same Device ID?
→For details on setting the Device ID, refer to the owner’s manual for your disk drive.
Cannot select in Drive/Song Select (→ p.44)
^Has the drive been initialized?
→In order to record or copy a song onto an external disk drive (HDD, removable disk), it must be initialized. Initialization is not required in order to perform a backup (on removable disk), and the disk can be used if it is acknowledged in “DiskInfo.”
■Cannot remove an external removable disk!
^If the external removable disk drive is selected as the current drive (i.e., selected in EDIT SONG/TRACK P1), removing the disk while operation is in progress may cause data to be lost, so the D8 locks the disk in place. If you simply turn off the power, it will not be possible to remove the disk until the power is turned on again.
→In order to remove the disk, either change the selected drive or song so that a different drive is selected, or
refer to “Exchanging disks on a removable disk drive” (→ p.39).
If you have turned the power off by accident, turn the power on again and use the above procedure to remove the disk.
^On a drive which is not the current drive, you can press the eject button of the drive to remove the disk.
■When a long time (10 minutes or more) has elapsed after playing back or locating, something is wrong with the playback sound
^Some drives go into Sleep mode when they have not been accessed for a long time.
→Try pressing the Stop key. Sleep mode will be defeated when the Stop key is pressed.
