The button doesn’t
work.
Is the panel locked? (p. 11)

perature is below freezing.

connected correctly? (p. 9)
Has the screen been turned off by the Display
[On/Off] button? (p. 10)

be turned off.
Vertical lines ap-
pear in the screen/

These occur due to the nature of a liquid crys-
tal display, and do not indicate a malfunction.
They can be minimized by adjusting the
brightness of the screen. (p. 10)

Is the volume level of the HPi-5 (p. 10) or con-
nected device turned all the way down?

strument is con-
nected).

quencer, set it to the Local OFF mode (p. 48).

Not all played
notes are sound-
ed.
The maximum number of notes that the HPi-
5 can play simultaneously is 64. Frequent use
of the damper pedal during automatic accom-
paniment or when playing along with a song
on floppy disk may result in performance
data with too many notes, causing some notes
to drop out.

particular instru-
ment in a song
does not play

Some music files may contain settings that
stop play at a point partway through the song.
Press the [
(
Reset)] button several times
more to return to the beginning of the tune.

until processing finishes.
There is a slight
delay before play-
back of a song on
floppy disk starts.
There are two types of SMF music files: for-
mat 0 and format 1. If the song uses SMF for-
mat 1 data, there will be a slight delay until
playback starts. Refer to the booklet that came
with the music files you’re using to determine
the format type.
Can’t record
Has one of the track buttons for recording
been selected? (p. 33)
It is not possible to record while the score is
being generated. Once the unit has finished
generating the score (i.e., when the measure
number in the screen is no longer highlight-
ed), try the operation once again.
