Troubleshooting

This section provides points to check and actions to take when the
GW-7 does not function as you expect. Refer to the appropriate
section for the problem you are experiencing.

Is the included AC adaptor/power cord
correctly connected to an AC outlet and to the
GW-7? (p. 9)

Do not use any AC adaptor and power cord other than the one
included. Doing so will cause malfunctions.

Could the VOLUME knob be turned down?

If playing the keyboard does not produce
sound, could Local Control be turned OFF?

Turn

Local Ctrl

ON

. (p. 25, p. 26)

Could pedal operations or MIDI messages
(exclusive or volume) received from an
external MIDI device have lowered the
volume?

Could the volume of the part be turned down?

Adjust the volume parameters (

Vol Main

,

Vol Dual

,

Vol Split

,

Vol

ChordBs

,

Vol Drum

,

Vol Bass

,

Vol Backing

). (p. 18)

Could you have used the Minus-One function
to mute (silence) a specific part? (p. 23)

Does the MIDI receive channel of the part
match the MIDI transmit channel of the
connected MIDI device?

Set the MIDI channel of the connected external device to match the
GW-7. (p. 26)

Are MIDI messages being transmitted?

Turn

MIDI TxRx

to a setting other than

OFF

. (p. 25, p. 26)

Does the MIDI transmit channel of the GW-7’s
keyboard controller section match the MIDI
receive channel of the connected MIDI device?

Set the MIDI channel of the connected external device to match the
GW-7. (p. 26)

Some tones, such as drum sets or bass tones,
have a limited range of pitches.

The reverb and chorus effects for the
keyboard parts won’t be applied if their
amounts are set to 0.

Raise the

Cho Main

,

Cho Dual

,

Cho Split

,

Rev Main

,

Rev Dual

, and

Rev Split

settings above

0

. (p. 19)

If MFX is not OFF, chorus is not applied to
Main mode/the upper part of Split mode/the
first tone of Dual mode.

If Tone MFX is OFF, some combinations of
tones and effects may sound different in
comparison to other tones.

Turn the

Tone MFX

setting

ON

. Alternatively, select a different

MFX

type. (p. 19)

Could the pitch bend range be set to 0?

Set the

P.Bend Range

to a value other than

0

. (p. 25)

Some tones alternately pan the sound to left
and right each time you play a note.

You cannot change this setting for these tones.

If the Pan Main, Pan Dual, or Pan Split
parameters are set to Rnd, the sound will
alternate between left and right each time you
play a note. (p. 18)
