Top 20 Roland BOSS RC-20XL Loop Station Phrase Recorder with Instrument Cables Questions & Answers

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.

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.

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.

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.

Read this please https://www.justanswer.com/electronics/9xlyw-roland-digital-piano-kr-4500-piano-turns.html and these https://www.google.com/search?q=Roland+kr+4500+no+sound But you will probably need a service centre for replacing components.

Being mainly digital, I would reset the processor and try again.

FOR SURE. it needs service, you have 2 choices besides upgrade. 1: shop fix it. 2: buy the service manual and learn electronics. check DC power rails inside first and fuses .

First you need to make sure that the keyboard is programmed to accept the DP-10 as factory default and then that the DP-10 is working perfectly. There is a case where the DP-10 action switch is activated directly, in this case the sustain does not stop and you need to change the micro switch of the DP-10 pedal. It has already happened to me and I replace it by adapting another micro because Roland does not support you and wants you to buy another DP-10.

Ebay will put you in contact with a seller.

Have the electrolytic capacitors replaced.That may cure it.
