Troubleshooting
●
Q. Notes are stuck
• In the Sample Edit screen (p. 56), the Trigger mode of the sample may be set to “Trigger.”
Set the
Trigger mode of the sample
to
“GATE.”
If it is set to TRIGGER, the sample will continue
sounding if you forget the key that you pressed. Sometimes if you are playing the VP-9000 from a
sequencer, the sample may continue sounding even when you stop the sequencer. If this occurs,
choose "Panic" from the Option menu in V-Producer. Alternatively, you can play the key that is
assigned as the Panic Key (p. 113). All sounds will stop.
●
Q. Tempo does not synchronize
●
Q. The VariOS does not play at the tempo of the song
●
Q. Playback timing is slightly skewed between samples
• The Clock Source of the VariOS may be set to INT.
Set the
Clock Source
to
“MIDI”
* If you are playing the VariOS by itself, set Clock Src to INT. If you are synchronizing the VariOS to
an external device, set Clock Src to MIDI.
•
Is tempo sync turned off for the applicable part?
Turn on tempo sync for the applicable part (p. 107).
•
Was the original tempo set correctly?
Check the setting (p. 51, p. 60).
•
Have you used a TIME knob to modify the time?
Return the TIME knob to the center position.
●
Q. LFO or effect parameters do not synchronize to tempo
•
Has tempo sync been turned off for the corresponding part?
Turn tempo sync on for the part to which the sample is assigned, or for the part to which the effect is
being applied (p. 107).
●
Q. The VariOS plays at double-tempo when played by V-Producer’s preview or song
playback
The VariOS synchronizes to the
master tempo
of V-Producer by receiving
MIDI Clock messages
from V-Producer. On some MIDI interfaces, such as Mark Of The Unicorn Corporation’s MIDI
Express or Emagic Corporation’s amt8, MIDI Clock messages that are input to one port are output
from all ports. This means that if in the
Sync Mode
dialog box (Option - MIDI Sync) you select one of
these interfaces as the MIDI Clock output destination, duplicate MIDI Clock (F8) messages will be sent
to the VariOS, causing the playback tempo to double. If this problem occurs, access the
Options -
MIDI/Audio settings
(
“MIDI Settings”
on the Macintosh) dialog box, and un-check the
MIDI
Clock
check box. This will allow the VariOS to play at the correct master tempo.
