[Rusty The Scoob]

This is the real problem I'm trying to solve on my other post - my SO has a 4D that sometimes has issues where the volume will suddenly drop to about 25% of what it should be. She can turn it off and back on and get full volume for a few seconds before it happens again.

I haven't seen it happen personally as we're in different bands, but she thinks it's related to clubs with sketchy power. Anyone run into this? Neither google or the manual has anything to say.

Try different audio cables?

Audio cables and amp/DI were just fine with her other keyboard. I just did a factory restore and OS update so we'll see if that helps. We have a gig together on Thursday so I'll get to see it in person finally.

Hello. this won't help but I have had a similar problem with my
Electro 4, specifically on the organ sounds. I have set gain high when saving programs and
have tried to adjust gain and volume while playing but problem continues. I have written on
this forum before about this, and just haven't found an answer.

Yes i get this problem at certain venues and i put it down to dodgy power supply. Especially once our bass player turns on his amp my keyboards seem to lose their power and my volume pedal no longer works. which is a shame because i love the volume pedal so I stopped using the volume pedal.

Which caused another issue.
With EV-5 pedal no longer plugged in, i lost ALL my Sample Library sounds. Well I discovered later, their volume became zero.

So I went in to System menu, Ctrl Pedal Mode and changed it from "S" (Organ/Sample Library Volume) to "O" ( Swell ) and my Sample library sounds came back!
Bizarre. You would expect the same volume behaviour on Sample Library as it is on Organ and Piano. (which were not set to zero volume without EV-5 pedal plugged in)
