E-A7 Troubleshooting
Q: When you select a user program, the display indicates “Style
not found” and the style is not selected.
A: A user program does not contain the style data (le) itself; rather,
it contains a reference to the style data (the name of the style and
its location). If after saving a UPG, you then rename, delete, or move
the style on the USB ash drive, it will no longer be possible to
reference that style data. If style data on a USB ash drive was being
referenced, that style data can no longer be referenced if the USB
ash drive is disconnected. To solve this problem, you can either
return the location and name of the style to the state at the time that
the UPG was saved, or re-select the style and then save the UPG.
For the same reason, you may see an error message such as Song
not found” for an SMF le, or Audio File load error” for a WAV/
MP3 le.
Q: A phrase assigned to a pad no longer sounds.
A: Phrases assigned to a pad do not sound if the Arranger Switch or
Arranger Hold is OFF.
Q: Regarding compatibility of UPS data with the BK series.
A: The E-A7 can load UPS data that was created on the Roland BK
series.
However, the following limitations apply.
5 For the BK-5/BK-5OR
Both sounds and styles are built into the E-A7. However, the
following styles are not built into the E-A7.
If you want to use these, load them as user styles.
Survive Disco, Earth Boogie, Country Pop
5 For models other than the BK-5/BK-5OR
Sounds and styles are not built into the E-A7. User program (UPG)
settings can be loaded.
If you want to use a style, load it as a user style. Also re-select the
tones from the tones of the E-A7.
Q: Unintended MIDI messages are transmitted when powering-o.
A: Rarely, unintended messages may be transmitted from the E-A7
when it is powered-o, but this is not a malfunction.
Q: The E-A7 no longer produces sound when I connect it to a PC.
A: When you connect the E-A7 to a PC and start a DAW, the MIDI
“Local” parameter might automatically be turned “O. (If this
setting is “Local O, the E-A7 will produce sound in response to
MIDI messages from an external device, but will not produce sound
in response to its built-in keyboard.) Change the setting to Local On
if necessary.
Q: When the right display shows the Track Mute screen, the left
display becomes less responsive.
A: This is not a malfunction. If it causes a problem with operation,
close the Track Mute screen.
Q: Even though I raise the Mic/Line In volume, the sound is too
soft, and the sound is distorted when I raise the volume of the
audio input.
A: Raising the Input Gain will raise the input volume. (To access the
Input Gain, go to [Menu]
0
Global”
0
“Input Setting.)
Q: Harmony is not produced when I turn on Melody Intelligent
Switch.
A: The Melody Intelligent function does not add harmony if the
Arranger Switch is O (chord detection is o).
Also, in cases such as when you play rapidly, it might not be possible
for chords to be detected, so that harmony is not added.
Q: When I attempt to edit a tone or drum kit, the message “Can’t
edit this tone” appears, and I’m unable to edit.
A: Not all of the E-A7’s preset tones and tracks can be edited.
When you move the cursor to a tone that can be edited, an “E”
symbol appears beside the tone number.
You can also refer to the separate “Tone List” to see which tones can
be edited.
Q: Playing back a style in the usual state sounds dierent than
playing back a style within Style Composer.
A: When you play back a style in Style Composer, the oset data of
Makeup Tools (parameters for which Freeze has not been executed)
is ignored. The Part Volume and Part On/O settings specied in the
Style Part Mixer are also ignored.
For this reasons, there may be a dierence in the sound.
