Error Messages/Troubleshooting
This section lists the messages (error messages) that the HandSonic 10 produces and explains the meaning of each
message, giving you to appropriate action to take.
Before contacting a local Roland service center, be sure you have read this manual in its entirety.
1.
NO SOUND?
Double check all audio connections, volume controls on
the HandSonic 10 or external amplifier.
2.
OVERALL SOUND OF A KIT HAS CHANGED?
Did you use the Control Knob to modify Tuning, Muffling
or Effects? If you did, and you changed kits without
executing UNDO, then you have re-written various
parameters in that kit.
For info on the Control Knob functions, see page 8. For
info on UNDO, see page 23. For info on recalling any
KIT’s original factory settings, see page 27.
3.
THE [EFFECT] BUTTON IS OFF, BUT YOU STILL HEAR
REVERB?
Look at the display to see if AMBIENCE is still ON. To
turn it off, while holding [SHIFT], press the [EFFECT] button.
(AMBIENCE-page 24)
4.
FOOT SWITCH SEEMS TO WORK BACKWARDS?
When using foot switches, if you hear the sound when you
release your foot from it, this means you need to switch the
POLARITY, or you have not set the correct TYPE of external
trigger. See page 26.
5.
STYLE GUIDE METRONOME - TEMPO PROBLEMS?
a.
You have set the tempo of the metronome, but the
pattern plays at a different tempo?
b.
All the patterns play back at the same speed.
Remember there is a Tempo Change parameter that
determines if the patterns play back at their own
individual, pre-set tempos, or at the tempo set by the
Metronome itself. See page 15.
6.
PLAYING WITH THE STYLE GUIDE METRONOME.
Depending on the pattern chosen and the kit you are
playing, you may notice sounds drop out, or mute.
7.
WHEN CHANGING FROM ONE KIT TO ANOTHER, YOU
HEAR A SOUND?
Depending on the EFFECT assigned to a specific kit, and
the length or decay, of the last sound played, this may
occur. If you play a cymbal sound, and then change the kit
while you can still hear that sound, then the effects
assigned to the new kit will be applied to that last sound.
8.
TEMPO DELAY
Because of the way the Tempo Delay operates, at low
tempos, depending on the BEAT selection, it may not work
as you expect.
Also, the Tempo Delay will not follow correctly if you are
using the Auto Up/Down function in COACH mode.
9.
COACH MODE- RHYTHM CHECK AND PAD FOLLOW
If you set the BEAT to “0” or “1” the HandSonic will play
in 4.
10.
ROLL
When using the Roll function set to high speeds, and
depending on the sounds you are “rolling,” sometimes
noise may occur.
