Frequently asked questions

How do I switch between Style and Synth modes?

Press the STYLE/SYNTH button once or twice. A higher pitched beep confirms Style mode, while a lower pitched beep confirms Synth mode.

What should I do if the sound is distorted or intermittent?

Replace the batteries, as the sound issue is likely caused by flat batteries.

Can I use any AC power adaptor with the DD-3?

No, only the optional Yamaha PA-1, PA-1B, or PA-3 power adaptors should be used to avoid damage.
