Misplaced call to musician produces error (14)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

miscalculation

'error' is the definition.
(miscalculation is a kind of error)

'misplaced call to musician' is the wordplay.
'misplaced' is an anagram indicator.
'call'+'to'+'musician'='calltomusician'
'calltomusician' is an anagram of 'MISCALCULATION'.

'produces' is the link.

(Another definition for miscalculation that I've seen is " Error of assessment".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
