reducing the volume if excessive distortion is heard.

Strange sounds or noises are heard
when playing with piano sounds.
The CA93/CA63 digital piano attempts to reproduce the rich variety
of tones created by an acoustic grand piano as accurately as possible.
This includes string resonances and damper noises, and other subtle
characteristics that contribute to the overall piano playing experience.
While these additional tones are intended to enhance the realism of
the instrument, it is possible to reduce their prominence, or disable the
effects altogether using the functions in the Virtual Technician menu.

A USB memory device is not detected,
cannot be saved to, or does not appear
to function when connected to the
‘USB to Device’ port.
Check that the USB memory device is formatted to use the FAT/FAT32
filesystem, and not set to ‘Write Protect’ mode.
Disconnect the USB memory device, turn the instrument off then on,
then reconnect the USB memory device. If the USB memory device
still does not function, it may be damaged or incompatible. Please try
using a different USB memory device.

The instrument pauses briefly when
connecting a USB memory device.

An MP3/WAV audio file stored on a
USB memory device sounds strange,
or does not play back at all.
Check that the format of the audio file is supported and listed in the
‘Audio Player supported format specifications’ table.
The file transfer speed of the USB memory device may be too slow to
play the audio file. Please try using a different USB memory device,
ensuring that it conforms to USB2.0 Hi-Speed standards.

An SMF MIDI file stored on a USB
memory device sounds strange when
played back.
The CA93/CA63 digital piano does not contain the full General MIDI
sound bank selection. Consequently, some SMF song files may not be
reproduced entirely accurately when played through the instrument.
