I am getting no Synth sound from my Roland GR33 .
Fixing no sound from the Roland GR-33
If no synthesizer sound is being heard from the Roland GR-33 , please use the following checklist:
- Is your GK switch set to “SYNTH?”
- Check your GK cable. Is it properly connected at both ends?
- Is your amplifier or mixer volume up?
- Try placing headphones into the MIX OUTPUT L JACK.
- Is the VOLUME/ EXP PEDAL in a “forward” position on the Roland GR-33?
- Make sure the VOLUME CONTROL knob is up on both the Roland GR-33 and the GK Pickup.
- Make sure that you are using the MIX OUTPUTS and not the GUITAR OUTPUT.
- The GUITAR OUTPUT will only produce your “dry” or unprocessed guitar sound.
- Make sure that your sensitivity settings have been adjusted accordingly.
- Refer to input sensitivity in your Roland GR-33 manual, or “Setting String Sensitivity” in this help desk.
