Troubleshooting
DTX700 Reference Manual 67
 If song playback does not stop as expected when you press the [ > /] button, proceed as follows.
• Hold down the [SHIFT] button and press and hold the [EXIT] button for at least one second.
 If the Decay parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/Voice page or the Instrument page has no effect on a wave, pro-
ceed as follows.
• Ensure that the Decay parameter from the Menu area’s Wave/Common page is set to a value less than 127.
 If hi-hat sounds are occasionally produced even though the hi-hat controller is configured to produce a kick drum
sound (i.e., Double Bass mode), proceed as follows.
• Select the hi-hat pad and increase the setting of the MinLevel (Minimum Level) parameter from the Menu area’s Trigger/Pad/Pad
Type page. Note that if this setting is too high, it may become difficult to play the hi-hat.
 If song playback cannot be started, try the following.
• Ensure that the currently selected song actually contains data.
• If the MIDI Sync (MIDI Synchronization) parameter from the Menu area’s Utility/MIDI page has been set to “ext”, ensure that the
DTX700 receives MIDI Clock messages correctly from an external MIDI device or a computer. (See page 41.)
 If a song plays endlessly and does not stop, proceed as follows.
• Hold down the [SHIFT] button and press the [EXIT] button.
 If you are attempting to change a wave’s tempo, note the following.
• Waves have fixed tempos. They will always play at the tempo of the original imported file regardless of drum kit tempo and other
similar settings.
 If a parameter setting you wish to change is displayed as “---” and cannot be modified, try the following.
• Ensure that the PadFunc (Pad Function) parameter from the Menu area’s Utility/Pad page is set to “off”. (See page 40.)
• Ensure that the Note parameter from the Menu area’s Kit/MIDI/Assign page has not been set to “off” for all four layers, A through D.
(See page 21.)
 If a pad controller does not work as expected, try the following.
• Ensure that the PadFunc (Pad Function) parameter from the Menu area’s Utility/Pad page is not set to “off”.
• Avoid holding the rim while adjusting the pad controller as this can prevent it from working properly.
 If you are trying to record multiple songs using the [REC] button, note the following.
• The DTX700 can only store one recorded song at a time. If a new recording is made, the current one will be overwritten.
 If you cannot change the current kit using the dial or the [-/DEC] and [+/INC] buttons, proceed as follows.
• 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).
 If double triggers are being produced, try the following.
• Ensure that trigger setups have been configured correctly.
• If the pad or drum trigger in question features a controller for adjusting output or sensitivity, turn it downward.
• Ensure that the Gain parameter from the Menu area’s Trigger/Pad/Pad Type page is not set too high. (See page 46.)
• Ensure that you are using only the recommended Yamaha drum triggers or trigger sensors. (Products from other manufacturers can
output excessively large signals, which in turn can result in double triggering.)
• Ensure that the heads are not vibrating in an irregular manner, and mute them if so required.
• Ensure that drum triggers are attached in the vicinity of the rim and not near the center of the head.
• Ensure that no other objects are coming into contact with the drum trigger.
• Raise the setting of the RejectTime parameter from the Menu area’s Trigger/Pad/Pad Type page. (Avoid setting too large a reject
time, as this can make it impossible to accurately detect flams, rolls, and the like. See page 46. )
Values cannot be changed or buttons do not work as expected, etc.
Multiple sounds are produced when a single pad is struck.
