7。 トラブルシューティング
If you encounter issues with your TD-3-AM, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
| 問題 | 考えられる原因 | 解決 |
|---|---|---|
| 音声出力なし | Volume too low, incorrect audio connections, faulty cable. | Check 'Volume' knob. Verify all audio cables are correctly connected and functional. Ensure your amplifier/mixer is powered on and set to the correct input. |
| ユニットの電源が入らない | Power adapter not connected, faulty power adapter/outlet. | 電源アダプターが本体にしっかりと接続され、電源コンセントが機能していることを確認してください。別のコンセントをお試しください。 |
| シーケンサーが再生されない | Not in 'Play' mode, no pattern loaded, 'Start/Stop' not pressed. | Switch the 'Mode' to 'Play'. Ensure a pattern is selected. Press the 'Start/Stop' button. |
| MIDIコントロールが機能しない | Incorrect MIDI connections, wrong MIDI channel, driver issues (USB). | Verify MIDI cables are connected correctly (OUT to IN). Check the MIDI channel settings on both the TD-3-AM and your external controller (default is channel 1). For USB MIDI, ensure drivers are installed if required by your operating system. |
| Distortion effect not active | Distortion switch is OFF, 'Tone' or 'Level' knobs are at minimum. | Ensure the 'Distortion' switch is set to ON. Adjust the 'Tone' and 'Level' knobs to hear the effect. |
