Symptom Remedy
The Disklavier does not recognize a USB flash
memory.
Certain USB storage devices may not function properly
with the Disklavier. For a list of compatible products,
please visit: www.yamaha.com/disklavier/
The Disklavier does not read a CD-R/RW disc. The audio CD should be formatted in CD-DA, and the
data CD in ISO 9660 Level1. The Disklavier may not
read a CD-R/RW disc other than this format.
Connection with External Devices
Symptom Remedy
The Disklavier cannot send or receive MIDI data with
other MIDI instruments.
Make sure that the MIDI cables or USB cable are
connected properly.
A MIDI loop was accidentally created when you
connected a computer to the MIDI OUT terminal on
your Disklavier, so that song data is sent back and forth
between the computer and the Disklavier.
Configure the setting for the MIDI OUT terminal to
“KBD OUT.”
Video Synchronized Recording/Playback
Symptom Remedy
Synchronized songs are not played back. Make sure that the audio channels of the DVD recorder
are correctly connected to the Disklavier.
Make sure that the input and output of the DVD
recorder are correctly connected to the Disklavier.
Make sure that the “OMNI IN” option on the Disklavier
is set to “AutoDetect.”
Make sure that the “OMNI OUT” option on the
Disklavier is set to “SYNC.”
Noises are heard during recording. Turn down the volume of the TV connected to the DVD
recorder.
Disconnect the left side connector of the RCA cord from
the OMNI OUT (L) jack on the Disklavier. This will not
affect the functionality of video synchronized recording.
Noises are heard during playback. The level of the synchronized signal (SMPTE) from the
Disklavier may be too high. Turn down the level with the
“SYNC OUT Level” option and re-record.
The piano playback is not synchronized with the video
picture.
The video picture may be delayed on the projection
device. Adjust the offset time with the “SYNC IN Offset”
to match the piano playing and the video picture.
The beginning of the piano performance is dropped out
when you play back the synchronized song.
It may take some time until the Disklavier recognizes
the synchronized signal and the piano begins to play
back. Select the synchronized song in advance, and
then start playback on the DVD recorder. Note that you
should wait for a while before playing the piano after
recording begins on the DVD recorder.
