Troubleshooting
DTX700 Reference Manual 66
 If sounds output from the DTX700 appear to be distorted, try the following.
• Ensure that effects have been set appropriately. (Sound can be distorted with certain combinations of effect type and parameter
settings. See page 7. )
• Ensure that the Filter parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/Voice page has been set appropriately. (Depending on the type of sound
being filtered, certain resonance settings (Q) can produce distortion. See page 19. )
• Lower the DTX700’s master volume.
 If sounds play endlessly and do not stop, try the following.
• Check whether the RcvKeyOff (Receive Key Off) parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/MIDI/Assign page has been set to “off”. If so,
certain types of voice will play endlessly when triggered. ( See page 22. Note that you can silence all voices at any time by holding
down the [SHIFT] button and pressing the [EXIT] button. )
• If the voice in question is a wave, check whether the PlayMode parameter from the Menu area’s Wave/Common page is set to
“loop”. If so, certain types of voice will play endlessly when triggered. (See page 53.)
 If sounds stop unexpectedly during rolls and flams, try the following.
• Check the Mode parameter from the Menu area’s MIDI/Assign page and remove any unnecessary note assignments for stack or
alternate playing.
• Ensure that the Mono/Poly (Polyphony) parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/Voice page is set to “poly”. (See page 19.)
 If certain voices are not played during rolls and flams, proceed as follows.
• Lower the setting of the RejectTime parameter from the Menu area’s Trigger/Pad/Pad Type page. (See page 46.)
 If the DTX700 sounds like it is out of tune or playing the wrong note, try the following.
• Adjust the setting of the MasterTune parameter from the Menu area’s Utility/General page. (See page 37.)
• Adjust the setting of the Tune parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/Voice page. (See page 18.)
 If effects cannot be applied, try the following.
• Turn off the Effect Bypass ([KIT] m[SHIFT]+[F2]).
• Ensure that “enable” has been selected for the effect(s) in question on the Menu area’s Utility/Effect Switch page. (See page 41.)
• Ensure that the VarSend(Dry) (Variation Send Level), ChoSend (Chorus Send Level), and RevSend (Reverb Send Level) parame-
ters from the Menu area’s Kit/Voice page have been set appropriately. (See page 19.)
• Ensure that the ChoSend (Chorus Send Level) and RevSend (Reverb Send Level) parameters from the Menu area’s Kit/Effect/
Mixer page have been set appropriately. (See pages 26, 27.)
• Ensure that the Type parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/Effect/Variation page has not been set to “No Effect”. (See page 27.)
• Ensure that the Type parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/Effect/Chorus page has not been set to “No Effect”. (See page 27.)
• Ensure that the Type parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/Effect/Reverb page has not been set to “No Effect”. (See page 27.)
 If a performance recorded as song data sounds different when played back, try the following.
• Turn off the Kit Lock. To do so, press the [KIT] button to access the Kit page, and then hold down the [SHIFT] button and press the
[F1] button (KIT LOCK).
• Ensure that the Rcv10ch (Channel 10 Receive), RcvPC (Program Change Receive), and RcvPC10Ch (Channel-10 Program
Change Receive) parameters from the Menu area’s Utility/MIDI page are all set to “on”.
 If the volumes of sounds produced by different pads are poorly balanced, proceed as follows.
• Ensure that the sliders on the front panel have been set appropriately.
 If unintended sounds are also produced when playing a pad, proceed as follows.
• Check whether these sounds have been assigned to layers B, C, or D for the pad in question, and if so, remove them.
 If changing one pad’s sound leads to other pad sounds also changing, proceed as follows.
• Ensure that the same note number has not been assigned to each of the pads using the Note parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/
MIDI/Assign page.
 If a variation effect is applied to a two-zone or three-zone pad, but the sound from only one of the zones appears to
change, proceed as follows.
• Apply the effect to each zone individually.
