Troubleshooting

Symptom

Remedy 

No sound, or 
very low volume. 

Playback sound 
is distorted or 
breaks up. 

Sampling not 
possible.

Sound of 
[SOURCE] input
cannot be turned 
off. 

Effects do not
work. 

Song cannot be 
recorded. 

Sound is heard
when hitting pads, 
but MIDI play 
does not work. 

Is correct AC adapter connected 
properly?

Refer to section "Getting Connected" ( 

 

p. 8

) and establish 

correct connections. Use only the supplied AC adapter. 

Are [OUTPUT L/MONO] jack 
and [OUTPUT R] jack 
connected correctly to the 
playback equipment? 

Refer to section "Getting Connected" ( 

 

p. 8

) and establish 

correct connections. 

Are the correct cables being 
used? 

Try changing to another shielded cable. 

Is the playback equipment set 
up correctly? Is the volume 
control set to an appropriate 
level? 

Establish appropriate settings. 

Is the [OUTPUT] knob of the 
ST-224 set up correctly? 

Establish an appropriate setting. 

Was a pad hit to which no 
sample is assigned? Was 
playback of a song without data 
attempted? 

Select an appropriate pad or song. 

Is the LEVEL pad parameter set 
to a low value? 

Set the LEVEL pad parameter to an appropriate value. 

Is output level of ST-224 set too 
high? 

Adjust [OUTPUT] knob on ST-224 to a suitable position. 

Is level of sound source used 
for sampling too high? 

Adjust [INPUT] knob on ST-224 to a suitable position, and 
repeat the sampling process. 

Is level of sound source used 
for sampling too low? 

Adjust [INPUT] knob on ST-224 to a suitable position, and 
repeat the sampling process. 

Is [RE-SAMPLE] key set to ON? 

Set [RE-SAMPLE] key to OFF. 

Is memory used up? 

Delete samples and songs that are no longer needed. 

Is SOURCE MIX pad parameter 
set to "on"?

Use [PAD FUNCTION] key and [SOURCE] pad to change 
setting of SOURCE MIX parameter from "on" (input source 
is constantly supplied to output) to "oFF" (input source is 
only supplied to output when [SOURCE] pad is pressed). 

Is effect processing enabled for 
the pad? 

Use the [EFFECT PAD ENABLE] key and the pad to send 
the sound of the desired pad to the effects section. 

Are you trying to apply the 
TIME STRETCH or SCRATCH 
effect to the [SOURCE] pad? 

The TIME STRETCH and SCRATCH effect does not work 
for the [SOURCE] pad. 

Is mode other than pad play 
mode or song mode selected? 

Press the [EXIT] key to terminate other modes. 

Is MIDI receive set to ON? 

Use the [SONG FUNCTION] key and pad 8 to set the MIDI 
parameter from "Midi" (receive MIDI messages) to "Int" (do 
not receive MIDI messages). 

Is the MIDI receive channel 
properly set? 

Match the ST-224 MIDI receive channel ( 

 

p. 67

) to the 

send channel of the MIDI device.
