Troubleshooting
Notation is not
indicated
properly in the
display
If you select a part that does not contain
performance data, notes will not be displayed in
the notation. Change the part that is displayed (p.
99).
The notation screen feature is particularly
unsuitable for the display of difficult, complex
musical works that demand accurate notation.
Refer to “Some Notes on the Notation Screen” (p.
27).
In the notation screen, some lyrics or notes could
extend beyond the edges of the screen, and not be
displayed.
Movement of
notation or
keyboard display
not smooth
There may be times when a complex variety of
information is being displayed or when a large
amount of data is displayed at one time. Change
the notation display settings as described below.
•Set “Bouncing Ball” to “Off” (p. 99)
•Set “Color Notation” to “Off” (p. 99)
•Set “Keyboard” to “Off” (p. 26)
Song becomes
unstable
In certain cases, such as when playing the songs
on USB memory, the song may lag when excessive
amounts of performance data are used.
Demo song not
playing
Could <BGM>, an “Auto Demo” setting, be
switched off (p. 93)?
Can’t play back a
song saved in
USB memory
The song name will not be shown if the song
information in the file is empty or consists only of
spaces.
Is the filename extension “MID”?
Files with other file name extensions cannot be
handled as song data.
Titles of songs on
USB memory or
floppy disks not
being displayed
Has the song name data (Sequence/Track Name
Meta Event) been entered in the file?
Song titles are not displayed if the song name data
is blank or consists exclusively of spaces.
Is the file name no more than eight single-byte
characters?
Is “MID” used as the extension?
The song cannot be treated as song data if a
different extension is used.
Volume of
accompaniment
or internal song is
too low
Could the “Balance” setting be set all the way
toward “Keyboard”? (p. 61)
Case
Cause/Remedy
Can’t record
Can’t record
Has one of the track buttons for recording been
selected? (p. 73, p. 75, p. 77)
It is not possible to record while the notation is
being generated. Once the unit has finished
generating the notation (i.e., when the measure
number in the screen is no longer highlighted), try
the operation once again.
Tempo of
recorded song or
metronome is off
If you select an internal song in which the tempo
changes during the song, and then record, the
tempo will change in the same way for the
performances that are recorded on the other
tracks. The tempo of the metronome will also
change in the same way.
If you record additional material without erasing
the previously recorded song, the song will be
recorded at the first-recorded tempo. Please erase
the previously recorded song before you re-record
(p. 76).
The recorded
performance has
disappeared
Any performance that has been recorded is
deleted when the power to the HPi-7S is turned off
or a song is selected. A performance cannot be
restored once it’s been deleted.
Be sure to save it on an USB memory or “Favorites”
(HPi-7S Memory) before you turn off the power (p.
80).
