The little Trouble Shooter
In addition to the “Troubleshooting Guide” given in the manual, we will describe some of the typical problems
that are likely to crop up during use. It goes without saying that we will show you a way out this misery. So
before you spend a lot of money on HOTLINE telephone calls or on the next SERVICE, you should read this
section.
> The CS2x is resolutely silent
Did you play a sequencer song with a fade-out? If this fade-out was generated with Sys-Ex events, you will need to reset
the Master Volume to a value of 127. With the sound examples this happens automatically at the beginning and end of
the song.
If absolutely necessary, a RESET can be performed (see your manual, page 69). Note however
that this will restore the factory defaults; all of your USER performances will be lost!
Another common mistake: is the CS2x still set to “LOCAL OFF” (UTILITY)? If so, the keyboard is disconnected from the
sound source, and you will hear the CS2x only when working with the sequencer. Simply activate LOCAL ON.
> Single Performances can’t be heard during playback
The culprit here may be the Arpeggiator’s Tempo setting. If the Arpeggio is active and it’s tempo set to MIDI, the sound
cannot be played from the keyboard. Equally, the Arpeggio cannot be triggered from the keyboard because the Arpeg-
giator is waiting for MIDI Clock signals. You can switch off the Arpeggiator, change the Tempo setting or activate the rel-
evant sequencer function so that it sends MIDI Clock signals to the CS2x.
> The knobs aren’t working correctly
Ensure that the UTILTIY – ASSIGN CTRL assignments correspond with the default settings. You may have changed
them during a song production.
By the way, there are different ways to restore the default settings: you can set
them manually, transmit them via the KNOBPER.MID file (Tutorial Disk), or perform a machine reset. Or per-
haps you have activated the Scene switches? All knob changes are ignored if you have.
> A sequencer song sounds incomplete or odd
Is the song’s Performance’s Arpeggiator active and its tempo set to MIDI? If so, you must activate your sequencer’s clock
to enable synchronisation between the Arpeggiator and the sequencer.
Are the Performance Mode, Multi Part midi channels set correctly? Please check in UTILITY - RCV CH. whilst switching
Parts with the PART/LAYER button (Part 5 = Rcv. Ch. 5, Part 6 = Rcv. Ch. 6, etc.).
Is the CS2x currently in EDIT mode? If so, the correct settings for Multi Parts cannot be received. Use the Performance
key to switch into PLAY mode.
> An Arpeggio won’t trigger over the whole keyboard
In this case you have to deactivate the Arpeggio Split function. Concentrate initially on the first Layer with Arpeggiator
functions using the Panel switch. Now press and hold the first two keys to the left and above the LC-Display and press
the Down key for Arpeggio type underneath the parameter matrix. This will make the “S” disappear from the display. Now
you can use the whole keyboard for your arpeggios.
> The Arpeggio Split function doesn’t work as desired
The Split point is set to C3. If you select an Arpeggio type whose playing range extends into the lower key half, any notes
in this half will play the sound assigned to it. Simply adjust the Arpeggio type so that no notes beyond the C3 are played
(e.g. UpOct1 or DwOct1).
