D24—Owner’s Manual
Troubleshooting
Symptom Advice
Cannot turn on the D24.
Make sure that the power cord is connected to a suitable AC wall out-
let. See “Connecting the Power Cord” on page 24 for more informa-
tion.
Make sure that the D24 POWER switch is set to the ON position. See
“Turning On & Off the D24” on page 24 for more information.
If you still cannot turn on the D24, contact your Yamaha dealer.
Cannot access the UTILITY, SETUP,
V. TRACK SELECT, or EDIT functions.
These functions cannot be accessed during playback, fast forward,
rewind, recording, or rehearsal. Stop the D24 in order to access these
functions.
Cannot record signals connected to
the slot inputs.
The COAXIAL INPUT assignment has priority over the slot inputs, so
make sure that the COAXIAL INPUT is not assigned to the tracks that
you are trying to record. See “Assigning the Coaxial Input & Output”
on page 188 for more information.
The number of tracks available for
simultaneous recording is less than
expected.
When tracks that have already been recorded are playing back,
depending on the number and performance of those tracks (i.e., how
heavily they’ve been edited), the number of tracks available for simul-
taneous recording may be reduced. Use the Optimize function to
arrange the sound files already recorded for optimum performance.
See “Recovering Disk Space” on page 172 for more information.
Cannot set the recording
resolution.
Once something has been recorded in a project, the recording resolu-
tion cannot be changed. See “Setting the Recording Resolution” on
page 32 for more information.
Cannot record or edit.
Make sure that the disk’s write-protect tabs are not set to protect. See
“Write Protecting Disks” on page 24 for more information.
Check if the project is protected. See “Protecting Projects” on page
82 for more information.
Project, track, and part editing functions are not available with the
higher sampling rates of 88.2 kHz and 96 kHz.
Cannot use the Auto Punch
function.
The LAST REC IN and OUT points must be set to use the Auto Punch
function. See “Auto Punch In/Out Recording” on page 73 for more
information.
Cannot meter or listen to recorded
tracks.
If the All Input function is on, input signals are metered and moni-
tored regardless of any other setting. See “Monitoring” on page 42
for more information.
Recordings playback at the wrong
pitch. Check the Varispeed setting and adjust as necessary. See “Using
Varispeed” on page 55 for more information.
The Time Remain function indicates
that less time is available than
expected.
When tracks and parts are erased or deleted, the sound files remain
on disk as unused files, occupying disk space, and reducing the time
available for additional recording. Use the Optimize function to delete
the unused sound files and recover the disk space. See “Recovering
Disk Space” on page 172 for more information.
Return to Zero doesn’t locate the
top of a project. Perhaps zero has been set to a different position using Relative mode.
See “Returning to Zero” on page 60 for more information.
Copied or moved a track or part but
cannot play the result.
If the destination track was a virtual track, you must assign the virtual
track to a main track in order to hear the result. See “Using Virtual
Tracks” on page 51 for more information.
