I have a GW-8 Roland. its automatically plays. What may be the reason and how to repair?please help

OK... It is literally impossible for the unit to "go out of tune" as it is crytal controlled... HOWEVER what is probablly happening is the PITCH BENDER is getting into the mix somehow.
If the centering on the pitch bend control is sticking or is loose, this would likely be the problem.
Do some tests with the pitch bender to see if you can detect either a mechanical or offset condition of the control.

Read pages starting with 49 in your user's manual.

You MUST format the USB flash in the GW-8 before it can be used. Formating in a computer MAY b e inadequate as sometimes the formats have special quirks.

Also pay attention to the MAXIMUM file name length... It is 16 characters MAX !!!!

You would have to get the circuit schematic from Roland and they may not give that out as it is proprietary. I have circuts for Fantom and Yamaha Tyros and believe me you won't learn anything beyond the block diagram. The circuit details are BURIED inside chips that you probably can't even get data sheets on and certainly can't get or understand the firmware of the internal operating system.

Yes, you can use the second pedal on a Roland BK-5 keyboard to transpose the key of the music that you are playing up or down by a semitone at a time. To do this, you will need to press and hold the second pedal while playing the keyboard. You can also use the transpose function in the settings menu of the BK-5 to adjust the key of the music that you are playing by a specific number of semitones.

Question edited for a bit more clarity. Video that might help https://www.google.com/search?q=Roland+octapad+spd30+dead Owners Manuals only. https://www.google.com/search?q=roland+octapad+spd30+service+manual ..

It's a Chinese made Roland and no service information is available as when a fault is found the main board is replaced, eliminating the need for service information. I would check that it is a stereo out jack and not mono. If it is a stereo out, check that both input phonos work. If they do, replace the faulty socket or damaged pcboard.

I am also using IOS and Android. So how can I improve some features? The black screen helps you relax when using the computer too much.

This depends entirely on what you personally define as 'Good'. The only real answer to this is try it, listen to it and decide for yourself.
