Troubleshooting
Tones Are
Altered
Is the Tone Control function assigned to
the MULTI EFFECTS [CONTROL] knob?
• Check the Control Knob Assign settings
in Edit mode (p. 85).
When a mono connection is used, the
tone quality can vary depending on the
tone selected and the register in which it
is used.
• For optimal listening quality,
connecting in stereo is recommended.
• “019 SuperiorMono” or “020 GrandRD
Mono” is recommended when
performing with piano tones using a
mono connection.
When UPPER
Tone is
Selected,
LOWER
Changes to
Same Tone
Are the UPPER Part and the LOWER Part
set to the same value in the Part Assign
settings in Zone Info (p. 69)?
Tone Doesn’t
Change/
Keyboard Not
Switching to
Split
Is [EXTERNAL/INTERNAL] set to ON?
• When [EXTERNAL/INTERNAL] is set
to ON, the external sound generator is
controlled. To change the RD-700SX’s
Tones and make settings in Keyboard
mode, set [EXTERNAL/INTERNAL]
to OFF (p. 64).
Is the ZONE SELECT button for the Zone
containing the Tone you want to change
set to ON (p. 41)?
Is [NUM LOCK] set to on?
• Tone categories cannot be selected with
the TONE SELECT buttons when
[NUM LOCK] is set to on.
Rhythm Not
Sounding
Has the System Clock Source setting in
Edit mode been set to MIDI (p. 81)? Do
you have an external MIDI device
connected?
• You cannot set the tempo with the RD-
700SX when Clock Source is set to
MIDI. Accordingly, if no external MIDI
device is connected, then no tempo
setting is made for the Rhythm, and so
the Rhythm does not sound.
Set the Part 10 Receive Channel setting in
Part Parameter in Edit mode to 10 (p. 92).
Is “SONG/ARP” screen selected for the
Rhythm/Song/Arpeggio screen?
Pressing [RHYTHM/SONG] to switch
“RHYTHM/ARP” screen (p. 48).
Multi-effects are
not applied to
the Lower part
Check the MFX Source and MFX Dest
settings (p. 86).
• With certain settings, the Lower Part’s
MFX settings are disregarded.
Problem
Check/Solution
Effects Not
Applied/Effects
Sound Wrong
Is a TW-Organ 1–10 Tone selected?
Effects are applied differently to the Tone
Wheel than they are with other effects.
• Effects set in Effects MFX Source (p. 86)
are applied regardless of each Part
MFX Switch ON/OFF setting in the
Part Parameter settings (p. 92), or the
MFX setting for each Tone in the Tone
Info (p. 68).
• When Tone Wheel is selected for
multiple Parts, it is applied to all the
Parts, regardless of whether the Rx.
Pitch Bend and Rx. Hold-1 in the Part
Parameter settings are ON or OFF (p.
92).
Is MULTI EFFECTS [ON/OFF] set to OFF
(p. 52)?
Is the MULTI EFFECTS [CONTROL]
knob set to TEMPO?
• In Edit mode, set the Control Knob
Assign setting in Effects as a value
other than TEMPO (p. 85).
Even when MFX Dest (p. 87) is set to
“ALL,” no effects are applied to parts in
which the Edit mode Part Parameter MFX
Switch (p. 92) is set to OFF.
In some cases where the delay timing
selected in the DELAY settings in Effects
is set to a note value, the delay sound may
not be heard. Either adjust the tempo or
change the numerical value of the delay
timing (p. 122, p. 144).
No Pitch Bend
When Pitch
Bend Lever is
Moved
Is the Tone Wheel screen appearing in the
display?
• The pitch bend effect cannot be applied
with the pitch bend lever while the
Tone Wheel screen is in the display. In
this case, the pitch bend lever functions
as a slow/fast switch for the Rotary
effect (p. 53).
Sounds Come
From Left or
Right Each
Time Key is
Pressed
(Panned)
In some Tones, the settings are such that
sounds randomly play from the left or
right side (are panned) each time the keys
are pressed. These settings cannot be
changed.
Sound is
Distorted
Sounds can be distorted due to equalizer,
multi-effect, and Part volume settings.
Adjust the following settings.
• ZONE LEVEL sliders (p. 41)
• System Master Volume settings (p. 80)
• Equalizer Input Gain settings (p. 45)
Is a distortion-type effect being applied to
the sound (p. 71, p. 87)?
