There are a few ways to reset your Roland 202, depending on what you're trying to achieve:

Resetting the MIDI Controller

  1. Power Cycle: Turn off your Roland 202, unplug it from the power source, wait a few seconds, plug it back in, and turn it on. This often clears any temporary glitches or issues.
  2. Factory Reset: This option erases all custom settings and returns the Roland 202 to its default state. To perform a factory reset, refer to your Roland 202's user manual for specific instructions. It usually involves a combination of buttons or a specific menu option.

Resetting a Specific Function

Sometimes, you may need to reset a specific function on your Roland 202, like a particular knob or button. To do this:

  1. Consult the Manual: Your Roland 202's user manual will provide instructions on how to reset specific functions. It may involve a combination of buttons or a specific menu option.
  2. Look for Reset Buttons: Some functions might have dedicated reset buttons. Check for these on the Roland 202's surface.

Resetting a MIDI Mapping

If you've customized your Roland 202's MIDI mapping and want to start fresh, follow these steps:

  1. Check the Manual: Your Roland 202's manual will likely have instructions on how to clear or reset MIDI mappings.
  2. Use a MIDI Editor: Some MIDI editors allow you to clear or reset mappings directly within the software.

Remember: Always back up your important data before performing any reset operation. If you're unsure about any steps, consult your Roland 202's user manual for detailed instructions.
