- When you want to stop using DAW control, press the [EXIT] button to turn off the DAW CTRL function.
MEMO
When you turn on the DAW CTRL function, there might be cases in which sound
cannot be produced for a short time. This is due to the processing needed to
load the Concert data for MainStage, and is not a malfunction.
NOTE

- Verify that the USB cable is correctly connected.
- Check whether the driver is correctly installed.
