Troubleshooting
External input sound cannot be heard/volume is too low
Check the following points.
Could the MIX IN setting be off?
Press [INPUT] to turn it on.
The level of the external input may be lowered.
When you sample, use the INPUT knob to adjust the level
appropriately.
Check the Level setting in the Sampling screen (p. 118).
The volume of the device connected to AUDIO INPUT may be
lowered.
Adjust it to an appropriate level.
Are the audio cables connected correctly?
Check the connections.
An audio cable may be broken.
Could you be using an audio cable with a built-in resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor (e.g.,
Roland PCS series).
External input sound is not stereo/is not monaural
Check the following points.
Stereo Switch parameter (p. 118) may be set to monaural
(stereo).
Could the Input Select parameter in the Sampling screen (p.
118) be set to “LINE IN L,” or “MICROPHONE”?
Set it to “LINE IN L/R.”
Mic sound is not output/is too weak
Check the following points.
Is the mic cable connected correctly?
Check the connection.
The mic cable may be broken.
The input source may be set to something other than mic.
Set the Input Select parameter in the Sampling screen (p. 118) to
“MICROPHONE.”
The mic level may have been lowered.
When sampling, use the INPUT knob to adjust the level
appropriately.
Can’t record a sample
Check the following points.
Is there enough memory capacity?
If there is insufficient sample memory, a message of “Sample
Memory Full!” will appear when you attempt to sample. (p.
121)
Erase unneeded samples to increase the amount of free space.
If there is still not enough, install additional memory (DIMM
modules). (p. 170, p. 172)
Sampled sound contains excessive noise or distortion
Check the following points.
Is the input level appropriate? If the input level is too high, the
sampled sound will be distorted. If it is too low, noise will be
heard. When sampling, turn the LEVEL knob in the Sampling
Standby screen (p. 117) to adjust the level while watching the
level meter displayed in the upper part of the display.
If the level meter in the display is lighting close to “CLIP,” the
level of the sound you’re sampling is too high. If this occurs,
adjust the level by lowering the effect level or adjusting the
mastering parameters.
Are the effect settings appropriate?
Some types of effect may increase the level louder than the
original sample, or may intentionally distort the sound. Some
effects will also cause noise to be emphasized.
Temporarily turn off effects, and check whether the sample
itself contains noise or distortion. Then adjust the effect settings
appropriately.
Are multiple samples being played simultaneously?
Even if the level of each individual sample is appropriate,
simultaneously playing multiple samples may cause the overall
level to be excessively high, causing distortion. Lower the level
of each sample so that the sound is not distorted.
Can’t select data from a memory card
Check the following points.
Is the memory card inserted correctly?
Turn off the power, remove the memory card, then re-insert the
memory card correctly.
Is the memory card an appropriate type?
The Fantom-XR can use either PC card type memory cards, or
another type of memory card via a PC card adaptor.
I can’t use a memory card
Is the memory card formatted?
An unformatted floppy disk cannot be used. Perform the
Format procedure.
