When I strum the strings - both with or without the strum button depressed - nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong?

No. You probably just have a defective toy. :/ Mine worked at first and very shortly after, stopped. I loved this toy while it worked but it sure didn't take long to break. It started with the top two buttons playing the same note, then the top three, and then it stopped strumming.

Maybe smth happened with guitar. There must be some music during strumming the strings- both with or without the strum button depressed

Have you depressed the phase button? That should help, and I turn the feedback control all the way up. I found that I have to use a sound hole cover to completely stop feedback. I have a Fishman Matrix pickup, so I can do that. I don't know what else to suggest since your pickup won'd accommodate a cover.

I think your talking about the guitar tuner. The tuner did not work for me though. on the good side this is a good guitar.

I have found on my Martin that the strings are not very loud so I prefer to use a hard pick. I dont finger pick much but these strings are definitely quieter than others I have used. They have a different sound to them, I would suggest trying a set to see if they work for you. Ive been using them for over a year now and been happy with them.

Mine was pretty well set up. A week ago however, I noticed the High E, 3rd Fret was buzzing and not staying in tune. Took it to local guy and he adjusted the truss rod. All good now.

My guess is you have one string not quite perfectly tuned. Are you using a clip on tuner, a tuner app or another instrument to tune? Recommend using uke app for each string, or clip on tuner.

As far as I remember it does effect the tone itself. I usually don't mess with the tone knob. I set at mid-point and leave it alone.

Glad to be of help; good luck with your guitar. You have chosen a good pedal.

The screws on my tone arm go upward into to seated nuts. Some arms may have a variation on this theme. The important factor is balancing the arm, then setting the stylus pressure.

When I bought it for my girlfriend and tried it out, it wasn't tunned up... But tunning it up is easy. Get your mobile and go to the playstore or apple store and download the app called "Guitar Tuna"... It's a great app to tune your guitar and it teaches you a Lot of chords on the guitar. Hope this helps. God bless

U may want to check what app u are using. Additionally, check the connector on your guitar and make sure it isn't loose. As a last measure make sure the battery in your guitar, if it requires one, is good. Also make sure u have headphones plugged in to the cord or I won't hear anything. If that all fails, test the cord out some other way with another device ....the cord could possibly be defective. Mine worked wonderfully tho.

I never had fret buzz and my action was perfect. That's what I liked most about it. Might want to have a tech look at it. But if you want to do it on your own, you'll need to raise the action with another truss rod adjustment. try 1/4 turn at a time. Have you looked down the neck from the body? Is the neck straight? It should be almost perfectly straight without any bumps. If it's not straight, and you still have the option, I would return it and try again. Every guitar is different. Hope this helps.

Since you are using easy play I assume you may be a litle slow in playing. The melody keys are synchronized to a particular note. That's an automatic programming function. It could be that there is a lag between you striking the note and the"computer" processing it that makes it sound off. I'm not sure what you mean by easy touch. the keys are pretty responsive. The effort to get a sound is comparable to the pressure needed to use a computer keyboard pressure. But there is no way to play softer sound without the pedal.

I'm not really sure but I know on ours you cant just press the button & let go or it will lag & not finish the tune. You have to hold the button until in finishes.

May sound overly simple and you probsbly did these things.. but make sure u have the volume up on the controller. I have mistakenly turned it off or down and didn't realize it. Other than that make sure it's connected to the computer. If still not working you should contact manufacturer or amazon to rerurn. Hope you get it fixed. It's a great system.

i don't think you tuned it properly... do not apply too much tension, especially when tuning new strings. after all the stock strings are not good so get a set of good strings and start playing!

Elizabeth, it takes awhile for the strings to stop stretching, then it should stay in tune longer. You might have to give it a month, I'm afraid. That's what I ran into.
