Resetting the Global Parameters restores all of the non-program specific settings to their factory default.<\/p>\n<h4>For instruments with wheels and\/or sliders: If you calibrate the wheels\/sliders, does the issue persist?<\/h4>\n<p>Wheel calibrations usually solve issues wherein the instrument is not in tune. Wheel\/slider calibration procedures are either an option in the Globals menu or a combination of switch presses.<\/p>\n<h4>If you calibrate the analog oscillators and\/or filters, does the issue persist?<\/h4>\n<p>All of our instruments feature analog filters and\/or oscillators, and have a calibration procedure which, while typically not necessary to perform very often if at all, can resolve certain issues. Our instruments with all digital oscillators (Prophet 12\/Pro 2) feature an &#8220;Autotune Filters&#8221; option in the Globals menu. In the Tempest, calibration is initiated in the System Actions menu. On the others, calibration is performed by a combination of switch presses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[1],"tags":[93253,93252,36572],"storecat":[],"itemids":[],"manufacturers":[33292],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the Troubleshooting your Dave Smith Instruments synthesizer. page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/troubleshooting-your-dave-smith-instruments-synthesizer\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Troubleshooting your Dave Smith Instruments synthesizer. - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Please follow the guidelines below from Dave Smith Instruments for general troubleshooting of your DSI instrument.
