Troubleshooting
Is the PC-80 software synthesizer running?
If the PC-80 software synthesizer is not running, you won’t be able to control it by operating the PC-80. Start
up the PC-80 software synthesizer, and make sure that the PC-80’s SOFTWARE SYNTHESIZER button is lit.

Is the correct mode selected for the PC-80’s VALUE encoder?
If the PC-80’s VALUE encoder is not set to the correct mode, you won’t be able to operate it as desired. If you
want to use the encoder to switch the sounds of the PC-80 software synthesizer, make sure that the PGM
CHANGE button is lit. If you want to control parameters, make sure that the MIDI CH button is lit.
Is the desired parameter assigned to the VALUE encoder?
If the desired parameter is not assigned to the PC-80’s VALUE encoder, you won’t be able to operate that
parameter. Right-click (on Macintosh, Control-click) a parameter in the Synth panel (or elsewhere), and choose
an assignment from the menu that appears.
Is the selected song data in SMF (Standard MIDI File) format?
Only SMF (Standard MIDI File) format song data can be played back in the Player panel of the PC-80 software
synthesizer. Song data in other formats cannot be played back.
Was the selected song data created for GM or GM2?
The synthesizer section of the Player panel is compatible with GM2 (General MIDI Level 2). This means that it
will be able to correctly play back song data that was created for GM (General MIDI Level 1) or GM2, but not
song data that was created with other sound generator formats in mind (such as the GS format).
Is the volume balance of the Synth panel and Player panel adjusted
appropriately?
In the PC-80 software synthesizer’s Option window, make sure that the volume balance of the Synth panel and
Player panel is adjusted appropriately.
Could a specific part be muted?
If a specific part is muted in the Player panel, there may be no sound or the playback may not be as you expect.
Access the Part screen of the Player panel, and check whether any parts might be muted.
