35 and 39)?

•

Are the effect return levels set properly (pages
32, 33 and 41)?

•

Is “NO EFFECT” or “THRU” selected as the
effect type (pages 90 – 92 and 94)?

•

If distortion is being used, is the distortion part
turned “off” (page 94)?

Symptom

•

A connected breath controller has no effect.

Possible Causes

•

Is the Breath Mode parameter set properly
(page 96)?

•

Is the breath control number set properly (page
96)?

•

Are the parameters to be controlled by the
breath controller set properly (page 48)?

•

If the VL70-m is connected to a computer via
the TO HOST connector, is the computer “echo
back” function set properly (page 20)?

•

Is the receive channel parameter set properly
(pages 34 and 38)?

Symptom

•

A connected WX-series controller has no effect.

Possible Causes

•

If the VL70-m is connected to a computer via
the TO HOST connector, make sure that the
“WX” is selected via the [MIDI/WX] button
(page 18).

•

If the VL70-m is connected to a computer via
the TO HOST connector, is the computer “echo
back” function set properly (page 20)?

•

Is the Breath Mode parameter set properly
(page 96)?

•

Is the breath control number set properly (page
96)?

•

Are the parameters to be controlled by breath
data from the WX-series controller set properly
(page 48)?

•

Is the receive channel parameter set properly
(pages 34 and 38)?

Symptom

•

Cannot receive MIDI bulk data.

Possible Causes

•

Is the Receive System Exclusive parameter
turned “on” (page 98)?

•

Is the Device Number parameter set properly
(pages 32 and 41)?

Symptom

•

Song data is not played properly.

Possible Causes

•

Is the WX Lip Lock parameter set properly
(page 98)?

•

Is the Breath Setting Lock parameter set
properly (page 96)?

•

In some cases song data which has not been
specifically created for playback via the VL70-
m, or song data which does not bear the “VL
Extension for XG” logo, will not play back
properly on the VL70-m.
