Error and confirmation messages
117
MIDI data receiving error
Meaning: While receiving MIDI System Exclusive data, the 
format of the received data was invalid, for example, 
because the size of the data was incorrect.
N
No data
Meaning: When loading a Standard MIDI File, the file 
contained no events.
No media
Meaning: When using the audio recorder or when executing 
a Media mode command, the target media was not inserted.
• Insert media, and navigate to an appropriate directory 
that the KROSS will recognize. 
No recording track specified
Meaning: When performing realtime multi-track recording, 
you attempted to begin recording with no tracks set to REC. 
To solve this problem:
• Set the desired tracks for recording to REC.
No space available on media
Meaning: When saving or exporting a file, there was 
insufficient space on the media.
• Either delete an existing file, or replace the media with 
another that contains sufficient free space.
No updating was required at this time. The KROSS already 
has the latest version of the system files.
Meaning: When executing the Global mode Update System 
Software function, the update was not necessary because the 
system is already the most recent version.
Not enough memory
Meaning: When starting realtime recording in Sequencer 
mode, the minimum amount of free memory (such as 
memory for the BAR events up to the recording start 
location) could not be allocated. To solve this problem:
• Delete other song data etc. to regain free memory.
Not enough memory to load
Meaning: When you attempted to load a .SNG file or a 
standard MIDI file in Media mode, there was insufficient 
free memory in the sequence memory. To solve this 
problem:
• Delete other song data etc. to regain free memory.
Not enough song locations available
Meaning: When loading a .SNG file with Append 
specified, you attempted to load more songs than can be 
loaded.
• In Sequencer mode, execute Delete Song to increase the 
number of songs that can be used, and then load the song 
again.
NOTICE: Overdubbing with this Level setting will 
attenuate the sections of previous takes by the same 
amount. Use ADJ.LVL to adjust the Audio Song and avoid 
uneven audio levels.
Meaning: This message is shown if the audio recorder Set 
Play Level function is set to a value other than 0 dB.
• With this Level setting, if you overdub a region of the 
song while playing back the previous take, the volume of 
the previous take will be lowered only for the recorded 
region. To avoid this problem of lowered volume, use 
ADJ. LVL to adjust the audio song level.
Now writing into internal memory
Meaning: Now writing to internal memory. Never turn off 
the power while this message is shown. Doing so may cause 
internal data to be damaged.
R
Root directory is full
Meaning: When attempting to create a file or directory at 
the root level of the media, you exceeded the maximum 
number of files or folder that could be created in the root 
directory of that media.
• Delete unneeded files from the root level of the media.
S
Scanning media
Meaning: Now checking the contents of the SD card. Do not 
remove the card while this message is shown.
Source is empty
Meaning: No data exists in the track that you specified as 
the source.
• Specify a track that contains musical data.
Meaning: The export-source audio song does not contain 
data.
• Specify an audio song that has been recorded.
Source timbre is not available
Meaning: When executing the Copy Step Seq function, the 
selected copy-source is a combination or song whose 
“STEP” check box is not selected. In this case, the step 
sequencer’s pattern settings etc. will be copied, but the 
program settings of timbre 16/track 16 will not be copied.
• Select the “STEP” check box of the copy-source 
combination or song.
System warning
The internal memory has been corrupted, likely due to an 
interruption of power while the system was writing/
saving data. This has been repaired and the affected Bank 
has been initialized.
Meaning: A memory write procedure did not end normally, 
perhaps because the power was turned off while processing 
was still underway after you wrote a program or other data 
into internal memory.
• The KROSS will automatically initialize itself in order to 
repair the internal memory. This message will appear at 
this time; press OK to close the dialog box. In some 
cases, the preload bank data may be temporarily 
initialized. As necessary, use the Global mode Load 
Preload/Demo Data command to load the preload data 
into internal memory, or if you have your own backup 
PCG, load it using Media mode.

T
There is no readable data
Meaning: Either the file size is 0 or the file does not contain 
data that can be accessed by the load or open procedure. 
Alternatively, the data is damaged etc., and cannot be loaded 
or accessed.
The song exists, and will be initialized
Meaning: When executing the Sequencer mode Create New 
Song function, you attempted to create a new song for a song 
number that already exists. If you execute, the song will be 
initialized, and a new song will be created and overwritten 
onto it.
• If you don’t want to initialize the currently-existing song, 
specify a new song number.
The system has been idle for more than **** and will shut 
down in:
You can change the Auto Power-Off setting on the 
following page: GLOBAL - PREF
Meaning: If there has been no operation for the specified 
length of time of time, the Auto Power Off function will 
display a message informing you that the power will turn off 
soon. The power will turn off when the countdown time 
indication reaches zero.
• If you want to continue using the KROSS, press a key or 
switch. Auto Power Off will be reset, and the same 
message will appear when the specified length of time 
has once again elapsed without any operation.
• If you want to disable this function or change the time 
setting, go to the GLOB> PREF page and set the Auto 
Power-Off parameter. Use the Write Global Setting 
function to save the setting.
Y
You can’t undo last operation. Are you sure?
Meaning: Once you enter event editing (even if you leave 
event editing without actually editing an event), it will no 
longer be possible to execute Compare to listen to the 
previous edit. If you wish to enter event editing, press the 
OK button. To cancel, press the CANCEL button.
You can’t undo this operation. Are you sure?
Meaning: When you exit recording or event editing in 
Sequencer mode, the memory area for Undo (Compare 
function) is not allocated. If you wish to keep the data that 
was just recorded or edited, press the OK button. If you wish 
to return to the previous data (i.e., to delete the data that was 
just recorded or edited), press the CANCEL button.
Meaning: When editing in Sequencer mode, memory area 
for Undo (Compare function) cannot be allocated. If you 
wish to execute the edit, press the OK button (It will not be 
possible to undo your edit). If you decide not to execute the 
edit, press the CANCEL button.
• In order to allocate memory area for Undo (Compare 
function), delete unneeded data such as songs, or tracks. 
We recommend that you data to media before you 
execute the edit procedure.
You can use “Quick Setting” with [EXIT]+[AUDIO IN]
Meaning: This is shown at the bottom of the screen in the 
Audio In page of a program, combination, or song if the G-
SET check box is selected. In this case, the Audio In settings 
will use the Global mode> G-INPUT/CTRL> AUDIO IN 
page settings. You can hold down the EXIT button and press 
the AUDIO IN button to access the Audio In - Quick Setting 
dialog box to make settings easily.
