Can anyone help ? I have a Tyros and seem to be having trouble with the vocalist on board. No matter what i do i get distortion even when the vocal harmony is not triggered. I have also tried another keyboard amp, but with the same results. I have tried different settings including Micheal's for the PSR 2000, and still no luck. The volume is not set too high ( for the vocalist ) and the trim button in the rear of the keyboard is just half way. No red light flickering while singing. I did not have this problem with my 2000, although i know that the vocal kit that Yamaha uses is not the greatest, it should be working better than this. I had some dancers tell me that they could not understand me when talking or singing. Anyone have any idea what's going on. It's not feedback since i have tried every different placement of the amp that is possible. Even had it placed 20 ft. away from me while performing. Thanks in advance, Bob Lee ( Also tried three different mic's )

Bob,

Sounds like the problem is internal with the vocal processor. First and foremost, do a master reset of the keyboard and if you still have the problem, there's a good chance that you'll have to take it to a factory authorized repair center.

Perhaps you have a strange DSP assigned to the vocal??? The vocal processing in my 2100 seems to be even better than the 2000.
When I tested a Tyros some months back, the vocal was great.

What type of microphone are you using? What are your compressor settings?

I have the Tyros and the vocalist works perfectly for me. I use a Shure BG 2.0 and I am using vocal tweaks which I read on a German Website.

I used a Shure M58 another Shure with on and off switch ( can't think of the model #) and also tried my Shure headset wirless mic with the same results. It seems that there is also distortion while talking or singing without the vocalist on. I'm taking the keyboard back Monday to get another( I hope ). Bob P.S. Also tried a Audex mic with the same results. Also did a factory reset, which did nothin to help. # 3 also, tried tthe settings from Micheal with no luck.
