I bought an XP30 last week, and exchanged it at the store today, because it appeared that the modulation control (on the same "joystick" as the pitch bend ) doesn't seem to work.

The one I brought home tonight seems to have the same problem... so I'm starting to get suspicious that I'm not understanding something.

I've tried resetting to factory settings. The manual doesn't seem to indicate that it can be enabled/disabled. I can apply modulation just fine if I press "controllers" and use C4 to control modulation, but the modulation lever seems to be totally useless (doesn't appear to send anything on MIDI either...)

Has ROLAND had a problem with these? I have trouble believing I've had two defective keyboards, so I thought I would ask here if anyone else could help. I've got a feeling I'm just overlooking something obvious. My recollection was that the one in the store worked fine...

Thanks for any help from helpful experts out there...
