Troubleshooting

Power does not turn on/CHECK indicator
does not light

• Is the correct AC adaptor (PSA-series; sold separately)

properly connected?

Check once more to confirm the adaptor is connected (p. 10).

* Never use any AC adaptor other than the adaptor specified.

• Has the battery run down?

Replace with a new battery (p. 38).

* The battery included with the RC-2 is intended only for

confirming that the unit is functional.

* This unit consumes a large amount of current, so the use of

an AC adaptor is recommended. If using a battery, use an
alkaline type battery.

* To reduce battery consumption, be sure to disconnect the

plug connected to the OUTPUT jack whenever the unit is
not in use (p. 10).

• Is the plug properly connected to the OUTPUT jack?

Check the connection once again (p. 10).

* The power will not turn on without a plug connected to the

OUTPUT jack.

No sound/not loud enough

• The recorded or overdubbed sound cannot be heard or

is too quiet

Use the PHRASE LEVEL knob to adjust the volume.

• Could you be using a connection cable that contains a

resistor?

Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.

Guide sound cannot be heard/is not loud
enough

• Use the GUIDE LEVEL knob to adjust the volume.
• The guide tone plays under the following

circumstances:

• When the tempo is set before recording
• During playback of a phrase

Recording/overdubbing ends while still
in progress

• There is insufficient memory. Delete unneeded phrases (p.

33), then perform the recording or overdubbing once again.

Recording does not end immediately
when you press the pedal

• Since the phrase length is adjusted automatically when

you record with Loop Quantize or record a phrase that
is shorter than the minimum recording time
(approximately 1.5 seconds), recording may not stop
immediately after you press the pedal.

Recording begins immediately even
though MODE is set to AUTO

• If due to distortion or other causes there is a significant

amount of noise, that noise may be enough to trigger
the beginning of recording. Reduce the noise, for
example by lowering the distortion level.
