HP101_e.book Page 4 Wednesday, September 8, 2004 10:16 PM Important notes Important notes In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “Using the unit safely” (p. 2), please read and observe the following: Power Supply Maintenance

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.

• To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is slightly dampened. Try to wipe the entire surface using an equal amount of strength, moving the cloth along with the grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can damage the finish.

• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/ or damage to speakers or other devices.

• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

• The pedals of this unit are made of brass. Brass eventually darkens as the result of the natural oxidization process. If the brass becomes tarnished, polish it using commercially available metal polisher.

• Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the unit has been completely disconnected from the source of power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug should be one that is within easy reach. Placement
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference. 352a

• This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers. 352b

• Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off. 354a

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit. 355b

• When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.

• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.

• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard. This can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing to produce sound.

• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument. Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior finish.

Additional Precautions

• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s memory once it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.

• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.

• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation. 558a

• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night). 559a

• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

• Do not apply undue force to the music stand while it is in use.

• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some other make of connection cable, please note the following precautions.

• Before opening or closing the keyboard lid, always make sure that no pets or other small animals are located on top of the instrument (in particular, they should be kept away from the keyboard and its lid). Otherwise, due to the structural design of this instrument, small pets or other animals could end up getting trapped inside it. If such a situation is encountered, you must immediately switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the outlet. You should then consult with the retailer from whom the instrument was purchased, or contact the nearest Roland Service Center.

If there is a gap between the pedals and the floor, the pedals may be damaged. In particular when placing the instrument on carpet, adjust this so that the pedals firmly contact the floor. ENGLISH Damper pedal (right pedal) While this pedal is pressed, notes will be sustained even after you take your fingers off the keys. On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper pedal will allow the remaining strings to resonate in sympathy with the sounds that you played from the keyboard, adding a rich resonance. Adjuster NOTE NOTE If the adjuster is difficult to turn, have one person lift either the left or right side of the stand to make it easier for another person to turn the adjuster and make the adjustment. After adjusting the adjuster, press the pedals, and if the front board moves, turn the adjuster further so that it makes firm contact with the floor. Always readjust the adjuster after moving the piano. Sostenuto pedal (center pedal) This pedal sustains only the sounds of the keys that were already played when you pressed the pedal.

Tuning to Other Instruments’ Pitches (Master Tuning) In situations such as when playing ensemble with other instruments, you can tune the HP101e’s standard pitch to the pitch of another instrument. The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you finger the middle A key. This tuning of all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “tuning.” ■ Setting the Standard Pitch to 440.0 Hz

1. While holding down the [Metronome] and

[Reverb/Key Touch] buttons, press the “C1” key on the keyboard. You can set the standard pitch anywhere in a range of 415.3 Hz to 466.2 Hz. When the instrument is turned on, the standard pitch is set to “440.0 Hz.”

■ Lowering/ Raising the Standard Pitch

Temperament Today, compositions are generally created with equal temperament in mind and are played using equal temperament. However in past ages of classical music, a variety of temperaments were used. Playing a composition with its original tuning lets you enjoy the sonorities of the chords that the composer originally intended. This is set to “Equal” when the instrument is turned on.

You can choose from among the seven temperaments described below. Qualities F#3 Pythagorean This tuning, devised by the philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and fifths. Dissonance is produced by third-interval chords, but melodies are euphonious.

Just Major This tuning eliminates ambiguities in the fifths and thirds. It is unsuited to playing melodies and cannot be transposed, but is capable of beautiful sonorities. G #3 Just Minor The Just tunings differ from major and minor keys. You can get the same effect with the minor scale as with the major scale.

Mean Tone This scale makes some compromises in just intonation, enabling transposition to other keys. Qualities Bb3 This temperament combines the Mean Tone and Pythagorean tunings. PerforWerckmeister mances are possible in all keys (first technique, III).

Kirnberger This is an improvement of the Mean Tone and Just tunings that provides a high degree of freedom of modulation. Performances are possible in all keys (III). ■ Setting the Tonic When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the tonic note for tuning the song to be performed (that is, the note that corresponds to C for a major key or to A for a minor key). If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to select a tonic note.

1. While holding down the [Metronome] and

[Reverb/Key Touch] buttons, press the tonic (root) of the key (C4–B4).

• When performing in ensemble with other instruments, be aware that depending on the key, there may be some shifting of the pitch. Tune the HP101e to the standard pitch of the other instruments. ENGLISH In this tuning, each octave is divided into twelve equal steps. Every interval produces about the same amount of slight dissonance. Temperament ENGLISH Equal Key ENGLISH

1. While holding down the [Metronome] and

Sounds are heard twice (doubled) when the keyboard is played Is the HP101e in Dual play? (p. 13) When the HP101e is connected to an external sequencer, set it to the Local OFF mode (p. 22). Alternatively, the sequencer could be set so its MIDI Thru feature is OFF. ENGLISH No sound is heard (when a MIDI instrument is connected) Have all devices been switched on? Are the MIDI cables connected correctly? Does the MIDI channel match the connected instrument? (p. 21) The bass range sounds odd, or there is a vibrating resonance When listening through speakers: Playing at loud volumes may cause instruments near the HP101e to resonate. Resonation can also occur with fluorescent light tubes, glass doors, and other objects. In particular, this problem occurs more easily when the bass component is increased, and when the sound is played at higher volumes. Use the following measures to suppress such resonance.

• Place speakers so they are 10–15 cm from walls and other surfaces.
• Move the speakers away from any resonating objects. When listening through headphones: Here, a different cause would be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center. ENGLISH No sound is heard Is the volume level of the HP101e turned all the way down? (p. 8) Are headphones plugged in? (p. 8) Has a plug remained connected to the Phones jack? Plugging headphones or other plugs into the headphone jack stops sounds from playing through the speakers. Is Local Off selected? When Local Control is set to OFF, no sound is produced by playing the keyboard. Set Local Control to “On” (p. 22). Is V-LINK switched on? While V-LINK is switched on, no sound is produced when you press any of the twelve keys at the left end of the keyboard (p. 19). ation becomes particularly audible when supplemented by heavy reverb, you may be able to diminish the problem by reducing the amount of reverb applied to the sound. When listening through speakers: Here, a different cause (such as resonance produced by the HP101e) would be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center. The volume level of the instrument connected to Input jacks is too low Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor? Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor. Tone doesn’t change Is the panel locked? (p. 19) Turn the power off, then back on. ENGLISH Not all played notes are sounded The maximum number of notes that the HP101e can play simultaneously is 64. Frequent use of the damper pedal when playing along with a song may result in performance data with too many notes, causing some notes to drop out. The tuning or pitch of the keyboard or song is off Have you set Transpose? (p. 12) Are the settings for the “Temperament” and “Stretch Tuning” correct? (p. 17) Is the setting for the “Master Tuning” correct? (p. 16) ENGLISH Depressing a pedal has no effect, or the pedal effect doesn’t stop Is the pedal connected correctly? Make sure the pedal cord is securely connected to the pedal jack on the bottom of the unit, at the rear (p. 7). The pedal rattles Adjust the adjuster underneath the pedal so that the adjuster presses firmly against the floor surface (p. 9). In the upper range, the sound changes abruptly beyond a certain key On an acoustic piano, notes in the upper one and a half octaves of the keyboard continue to sound until they decay naturally, regardless of the damper pedal. There is a difference in the timbre as well. Roland pianos faithfully simulate such characteristics of the acoustic piano.
