Sound wrong, or are buzzy
If you set the volume to the maximum setting, the sound may be distorted depending on how you perform. If this occurs, turn
down the volume.

If you don’t hear this in headphones:
Performing at high volumes may cause the speakers or objects near the unit to resonate. Fluorescent lights or glass doors may
also resonate sympathetically. In particular, this is more likely to occur for lower notes and higher volumes. You can take the
following measures to minimize resonances.
• Locate this unit 10–15 cm (4–6 inch) away from walls or other surfaces.
• Keep the volume down.
• Move away from the objects that are resonating.
