Appendix

•For each channel of the mixer, make sure that the REVERB SEND or CHORUS/DELAY SEND parameter

is turned on. If it is on, make sure that the send level is raised (→ p. 72).

Problems with the rhythm section■Cannot hear the rhythm pattern play back

•Make sure that the [DRUM] status key is lit in green.

•Make sure that the [DRUM] fader is raised. If the fader is already raised, lower it and then raise it once more.

•Make sure that you have not selected a blank rhythm pattern (pattern name "EMPTY").

■Cannot hear the rhythm song play back

•In the case of a new project, all rhythm songs will be empty, so you will hear no sound. Either create a new rhythm song, or load a project for which a rhythm song has already been created.

•When using Control Change signals sent from an external MIDI device, the drum kit volume may be lowered. Set the MIDI channel for the drum kit to OFF or check the setting at the external MIDI device.

Problems with MIDI■The drum kit of the MRS-802 cannot be played from an external MIDI device

•Make sure that a MIDI cable is correctly connected from the MIDI OUT connector of the external device to the MIDI IN connector on the MRS-802.

•Make sure that the MIDI send channels of the external device match the MIDI receive channels for the drum kit at the MRS-802.

■Cannot synchronize with an external MIDI device

•Make sure that a MIDI cable is correctly connected from the MIDI OUT connector of the MRS-802 to the MIDI IN connector of the external device.

•At the MRS-802, make sure that output is enabled for the

Timing Clock, Song Position Pointer, and Start/Stop/ Continue messages (→ p. 130).

•Make sure that the external MIDI device is set to receive the Timing Clock and synchronize to it.

•Make sure that the external MIDI device is in playback mode.

■Cannot record or edit a rhythm pattern/ rhythm song

•When the [DRUM] key is out or blinking, it is not possible to record or edit a rhythm pattern or rhythm song. Press the [DRUM] key to make the key light.

•If the display indicates "FULL", this means that you have used up the rhythm section memory. Please delete unneeded rhythm patterns.

■Sounds recorded in the rhythm pattern do not play

•Sounds that exceed the maximum polyphony will not be

played. Either delete some of the other notes that have already been recorded (→ p. 93), or stay within the

maximum polyphony when you record.

■Cannot load SMF from CD-ROM or CD-R/ RW disc

•Make sure that the SMF is Format 0 and that the file name and extension are appropriate.

•Files written to a CD-R/RW disc in an open session will not be recognized. Close the session and then try the load process again.

■Cannot play SMF

•Make sure that SMF output is set to "ON" (SMF playing

information is output from the MIDI OUT connector) (→ p. 132).
