BluesKeys Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 It looks like my RD700 has been dropped by the road crew and ever since when I layer strings with the piano I have no control of volume. I was able to use the sliders in the past. I did a hard reset per Roland sight (thru edit rest all) and it didn't help. Is there a place to go internally to reset this? Jimmy Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.

BluesKeys Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Main volume works but not track volume on each layer (3- strings 4- piano). The on off switches above turn on off but no slider control.

clpete Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 That sucks! Is the hard reset the same as Factory Reset? Do any of the 4 sliders work on any other Patch or Set Up? How about re-installing or installing the most current Operating system? Of course, you can always use a pedal to bring the strings in & out, if that works for your situation. We play for free.

BluesKeys Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 Yes, the "Factory reset All" so I lost any patches that I built. I was hoping there was a place to assign these faders but I can't seem to find it. Very frustrating, since I really use the layers but like to have this control to balance the layers.

JeffLearman Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Have them get you a new one. Their insurance should cover it, and the team should get the signal not to drop your gear! Do these faders do any other function that you can test? My guess is that the pots themselves have failed, in which case no settings will help.

clpete Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 The only other function that the faders are used for is for the drawbars while using the Tonewheel engine. May check that. Would be odd if the drawbar function worked. The only place you can assign the faders to is the 2 FC pedals and the Control Switchor the buttons while in Edit. You could assign two expression pedals for two layers and the third to the Control Sw, but what a pain. Sounds like its time for that upgrade. Too bad you lost all of your Set Ups. We play for free.

Would be odd if the drawbar function worked. Indeed, if the faders work the drawbars the problem is a programming one, which would probably be a good thing...

clpete Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Just a thought. I wonder if opening it up and inspecting the board may result in finding something loose or out a place. ?? We play for free. We get paid to set up and tear down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluesKeys Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 clpete, I will try the tone wheel organ and see if they work. My next step is to open her up and see if anything is loose. I may order some trays (keys) and the back stop felt and replace the middle trays while it is open. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Learjeff, Being the new guy I am not inclined to ruffle feathers at this point. Especially if I can fix it myself. The last keyboard player is still talked about because he could not fix anything. Not even his sustain peddle!!! Jimmy Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.
