Roland BOSS RC-20XL Loop Station will not record or play

If your Roland BOSS RC-20XL Loop Station will not record or play, there are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Check the power source: Make sure that the Loop Station is properly powered and that the batteries or power supply are providing sufficient power. If using batteries, try replacing them with fresh ones.
  2. Check the connections: Ensure that the input and output connections are properly connected and that there are no loose cables. Try using different cables to see if that resolves the issue.
  3. Check the settings: Make sure that the Loop Station is set to the correct mode and that the input level is set appropriately. Refer to the user manual for guidance.
  4. Reset the device: Try resetting the Loop Station to its factory settings. Refer to the user manual for instructions on how to do this.
  5. Service: If none of the above steps work, the Loop Station may need to be serviced. Contact the manufacturer or a certified repair center for assistance.
Hopefully one of these steps will help you get your Roland BOSS RC-20XL Loop Station working again.

When I turn on my

Hi. I had the same problem and fixed it by clearing all the phrases. An explanation of how to do this is below (written by someone else, not me) But, expect your guide beat to now sound like a fuzz instead of a drum. This really sucks and there is apparantly no fix for the guide sound except to send it back to Boss. Good luck.

1. Start by selecting Phrase 1.

(if the 'REVERSE' or 'AUTO START' are lit press them off.)

2. Select 'INST & MIC' by pressing 'MODE'

3. Hold down 'EXIT' and 'AUTO START' together - at the same time, this should light up the green LED for 'LOOP PHASE'

4. Hold down 'WRITE' and 'EXIT' together
then hold 'WRITE' on its own
then 'WRITE' and 'EXIT' together again...as if you were clearing a phrase.

they should light up in red and flash, if not try a combo of section 4.

5. Repeat on all Phrases 1 - 11.

Hi. Can I use the second pedal on my Roland BK5 to scale up the key one semitone at a time?

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.

I need a circuit diagram for a Roland MA-15D speaker please?

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.
