Troubleshooting
Pan (stereo image) is not stored correctly
If the limiter is turned on, it will respond to the levels of each channel, meaning that when the level of a
sound located toward the right (or left) side increases, the limiter for that channel will limit the volume. If
you’re recording in stereo, the result will be that the left and right volume difference will diminish, causing
the pan (stereo image) to move toward the center.
Panning can be correctly recorded by linking the limiters of the channels recording in stereo using the
Limiter Link.
Refer to:“1 Recording Setup” (p. 72)
If using the Comp&DeEsser effect with channel linking (LINK) set separately for CH1, CH2, CH3, and
CH4, and the compressor begins to operate on CH1 (left), this will eliminate the level difference with CH2
(right), causing the pan (stereo image) to move toward the center.
In this case, set the LINK setting to CH1+2 or CH3+4 so that whenever compression starts being
applied to CH1 (left), it will be applied to CH2 (right) at the same time.
Refer to:“Effects settings” (p. 59)
Also, the stereo image will not be recorded correctly if the input level knob settings differ significantly
between L and R, so that the levels are not balanced correctly.
Even though the recording levels are set, the sound is distorted
when an effect is turned on
Since some effects work by emphasizing a portion of the sound, this may increase the volume of the overall
song, thereby causing clipping (distortion). You may take either of the following two actions.
Lower the level (LEV) values for each effect parameter
The overall volume will decrease, but the character of the effect will be maintained.
Refer to:“Effects settings” (p. 59)
Lower the input level to decrease the volume before applying the effect
This adjustment is easy to make, but may change the resulting character of the effect.
The HDD Slow! message is shown
Writing access to the hard disk has slowed down.
As you repeatedly write and delete project files, the files on the hard disk become fragmented, and this
slows down the processing speed.
If making important recordings, you should consistently delete all projects together when finished with
them. Repeated deletion of smaller pieces of data causes the disk to become fragmented, possibly causing
recording to fail.
