Troubleshooting
If the BR-600 does not function as you expect, please check
the following points before assuming that a malfunction has
occurred.
If this does not resolve the problem, contact a nearby
Roland service center or your dealer.
No sound
❍ Is the power of the BR-600 and of the connected
equipment turned on?
❍ Are the audio cables connected correctly?
❍ Are any audio cables broken?
❍ Has the volume of the connected amp or mixer
been lowered?
❍ Has the MASTER fader or headphone volume
of the BR-600 been lowered?
❍ Is a memory card inserted?
❍ Has the wrong card been inserted?
You can use commercially available CompactFlash
cards as memory cards for the BR-600; The 3.3 V type
with the capacities of 32 MB to 1 GB can be used.
❍ Are you attempting to play back a short phrase
of less than 1.0 seconds?
Phrases of 1.0 seconds or less cannot be played.
The volume level of the instrument
connected to GUITAR/BASS jack or
LINE IN jacks is too low
❍ Could you be using a connection cable that
contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
A specific track cannot be heard
❍ Has the track volume been lowered?
❍ Is the V-Track setting for a different V-Track?
❍ Has the track been muted?
The input source cannot be heard
❍ Did you adjust GUITAR/BASS/MIC2, MIC1,
and REC LEVEL?
❍ Has INPUT SELECT been muted? (The INPUT
SELECT indicator will be dark.)
❍ Has the REC LEVEL dial been set to “MIN”?
❍ If you are using the onboard stereo
microphone, is “Mic” under UTILITY set to
“ONBRD+EXT”?
Cannot record
❍ Is a song protected?
❍ Is a memory card inserted?
❍ Does the memory card have insufficient
remaining capacity?
❍ Has the recording mode (REC MODE) been
selected correctly?
❍ Has the Phrase Trainer or Scrub Playback
function been turned on?
The recorded sound contains noise
or distortion
❍ Is the input sensitivity set appropriately?
If the input sensitivity is too high, the recorded sound
will be distorted. If it is too low, the input sound will
be buried in noise. Adjust the REC LEVEL dial so that
the level meter moves as much as possible without
causing the PEAK indicator to light.
* Set it so the “0” is not indicated in the level meter.
❍ Are the track output levels appropriate?
If you hear noise or distortion after bouncing tracks,
the output level of the tracks was too high.
❍ Is a mic with high output impedance connected
directly to the BR-600?
The BR-600 is designed with a wide margin of
headroom. Also, since the MIC 1 and MIC 2 jacks are
low
impedance inputs, the recording level may be too low,
depending on the response of some mics. In such cases,
connect the mic via a mic preamp to the LINE IN jacks
on the BR-600 before recording.
