For some Tones, the pitch in certain ranges may sound different than other<br />
Tones.<br />
Could the tuning of the GW-8 be incorrect?<br />
• Check the Master Tune setting.<br />
Could the pitch have been changed by pedal operations or by pitch bend messages<br />
received from an external MIDI device?<br />
If you attempt to play more than 128 voices simultaneously, currently sounding<br />
notes may be cut off.<br />
Check the format of your USB memory.<br />
The GW-8 can use USB memory that has been formatted as FAT. If your USB<br />
memory was formatted using any other method, please re-format it using FAT.<br />
Check the following points.<br />
• Could the USB memory be write protected?<br />
• Is there sufficient free space on the USB memory?<br />
This may be due to the following reasons.<br />
• Playlists may not be shown if you directly add/delete/modify the song<br />
data in the ROLAND folder without using Playlist Editor.<br />
• For some reason the USB memory is not recognized.<br />
• It is possible that the USB memory was not formatted correctly. The GW-8<br />
can use USB memory that has been formatted as FAT. If your USB memory<br />
was formatted using any other method, please re-format it using FAT.<br />
• Are the songs placed in the root directory?<br />
Songs may not be shown if you directly add/delete/modify the song data<br />
in the ROLAND folder without using Playlist Editor.<br />
• It is possible that the USB memory was not formatted correctly. The GW-8<br />
can use USB memory that has been formatted as FAT. If your USB memory<br />
was formatted using any other method, please re-format it using FAT.<br />
Check the file name.<br />
• The file name for a Style or Song that can be used by the GW-8 must be<br />
no longer than sixteen characters (not including the filename extension).<br />
You can use the following characters.<br />
A–Z 0–9 ! # $ % & ‘ ( ) - @ ^ _ ` { }<br />
• You must assign a filename extension of “.stl” to Style files, and a filename<br />
extension of “.mid” to Song files.<br />
This may be due to the following reasons.<br />
• The file type of the song is not one of the file types that the GW-8 can<br />
play.<br />
• It may be that the song data is damaged.<br />
• Songs cannot be played if you directly add/delete/modify the song data<br />
in the ROLAND folder without using Playlist Editor.<br />
