Top 20 Roland Boss BR-800 Digital Recorder Questions & Answers

Yes. There should be a mono out on the unit and that's what ypu'd use.

the floppy drive never had a cleaning disk. if it doesn't work it can be replaced.

There should be a fuse on the power supply board inside the unit. If it is not that then it is most likely the board itself. You can get a replacement at Allied Electronics.

Hello Alan. Yes you can connect your ME-25 to the BR-800, there is no risk to damage any. it is simple, you may use both outputs of the pedal and send them via two normal 1/4 plug guitar cables to two of the channels of the DR (i.e. ch 1 & 2) to avoid an initial saturation of the recording preamp, set the input sens pot at minimum and the sliders very close to minimum as you try playing and looking the levels on the display and adjunting them to the optimum. To connect the DR to an amp you should use the pair of RCA jacks named LINE OUT (R & L) depending of the amp you have there might be the need for a conversion cable or plug adapters. The out put of the DR is stereo, and if you want to use a guitar amp, commonly mono, you should mix both channels to send them to one input, this can be done by putting two 10 kohms resistors in series with each channel output and joining the other end to the input. Good luck and best wishes

Uninstall any HP device and try it. Then reinstall the HP device.

Remove power supply or battery for 5 minutes. Apply power while holding the on switch in, this usually resets most electronic devices to their factory default condition. Then look again.

In the forums tab, scroll down to the BR8 forums. There is software to convert the BR files to PC readable. You can find discussion there of where and what to get.

Weak batteries or power adapter would cause this.

Best to use the line out jacks. The phone jack is stereo and you would have to use a wye cable for that.

Yep, that's what its supposed to do. You set the start (and stop) points and it punches from play to record so you can pick up just before where you goofed up. I'd suggest you put the punch-in point at a natural transition to what you're recording - like a pause in guitar part of between verse/chorus of vocals. If you try to punch into the middle of a guitar run (for example) the results may be less that satisfactory. Make sure you sing/play along with the playback so the transition sounds natural - don't try to just pick up after the punch.

I wonder why the ribbon cables have been replaced as they do not fail. Check the keys actuate the contacts properly.

most likely we dont have crystal balls --need to have diagnosed for problem

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.
