You should then consult with the retailer from whom the instrument was purchased, or contact the nearest Roland Service Center.

Floppy Disk Handling (Using Optional Floppy Disk Drive)

• Floppy disks contain a plastic disk with a thin coating of magnetic storage medium. Microscopic precision is required to enable storage of large amounts of data on such a small surface area. To preserve their integrity, please observe the following when handling floppy disks:

• Never touch the magnetic medium inside the disk.

• Do not use or store floppy disks in dirty or dusty areas.
• Do not subject floppy disks to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle).
  Recommended temperature range: 10–50 degrees C (50–122 degrees F).

• Do not expose floppy disks to strong magnetic fields, such as those generated by loudspeakers.

• Floppy disks have a "write protect" tab which can protect the disk from accidental erasure. It is recommended that the tab be kept in the PROTECT position, and moved to the WRITE position only when you wish to write new data onto the disk.

• The identification label should be firmly affixed to the disk. Should the label come loose while the disk is in the drive, it may be difficult to remove the disk.
• Store all disks in a safe place to avoid damaging them, and to protect them from dust, dirt, and other hazards. By using a dirty or dust-ridden disk, you risk damaging the disk, as well as causing the disk drive to malfunction.

USB Memory Handling

• When connecting USB memory, firmly insert it all the way in.

• Do not touch the pins of the USB memory connector, or allow them to become dirty.

• USB memory is made using high-precision electronic components, so please observe the following points when handling it.

• To prevent damage from static electrical charges, discharge any static electricity that might be present in your body before handling USB memory.

• Do not touch the terminals with your fingers or any metal object.
• Do not bend or drop USB memory, or subject it to strong impact.
• Do not leave USB memory in direct sunlight or in locations such as a closed-up automobile. (Storage temperature: 0–50 degrees C)
• Do not allow USB memory to become wet.

• Do not disassemble or modify USB memory.

• When connecting USB memory, position it horizontally with the external memory connector and insert it without using excessive force. The external memory connector may be damaged if you use excessive force when inserting USB memory.

• Do not insert anything other than USB memory (e.g., wire, coins, other types of device) into the external memory connector. Doing so will damage the external memory connector.
• Do not apply excessive force to the connected USB memory.
• If you will not be using USB memory for an extended period of time, close the USB memory cover.

Handling the CDs (CD-ROMs)

• When handling the discs, please observe the following.

• Do not touch the encoded surface of the disc.

• Do not use in dusty areas.

• Do not leave the disc in direct sunlight or an enclosed vehicle.

• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside (encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD-ROM discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean using a commercially available CD cleaner.

• Keep the disc in the case.
• Do not keep the disc in the CD drive for a long time.
• Do not put a sticker on the label of the disc.
• Wipe the disc with a soft and dry cloth radially from inside to outside. Do not wipe along circumference.

Opening and Closing the Lid

Opening the Lid

1. Use both hands to lift the lid lightly, and slide it away from yourself.

Closing the Lid

1. Pull the lid gently toward yourself, and lower it softly after it has been fully extended.

Be careful not to get your fingers pinched when opening or closing the lid. If small children will be using the HPi-7S, adult supervision should be provided.

To prevent accidents, the lid must be closed when transporting the piano.

Turning the Power On/Off

Once the connections have been completed (p. 17), turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

Turning On the Power

1. Turn the [Volume] knob all the way toward the left to minimize the volume.
2. Press the [Power] switch.

After the power comes on, the opening animation appears in the screen within the music rest, followed by the Notation screen.

1. Use the [Volume] knob to adjust the volume (refer to the next section).

This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will operate normally.

Turning Off the Power

1. Turn the [Volume] knob all the way down.
2. Press the [Power] switch.

The screen display goes blank, and the power is turned off.

If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the [Power] switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Refer to "Power Supply" (p. 9).

Adjusting the Volume of the Sound

1. Turn the [Volume] knob to adjust the overall volume.

Adjust the volume level as you play the keyboard and listen to the sound.

You can also adjust the headphone volume with the [Volume] knob.

Connecting Headphones

The HPi-7S has two jacks for plugging in headphones. This allows two people to listen through headphones simultaneously, making it very useful for lessons and when performing piano pieces for four hands. Additionally, this allows you to play without having to worry about bothering others around you, even at night.

If connecting only one pair of headphones, they can be connected to either one of the headphone jacks.

1. Connect the headphones to the Phones (headphones) jack on the left underside of the HPi-7S.

When you connect headphones, no sound will be output from the speakers of the HPi-7S.

The headphone volume is adjusted by the [Volume] knob (p. 18) of the HPi-7S.

Some Notes on Using Headphones

• To avoid damaging or severing the headphone cord, be sure to handle the headphones by holding the phones themselves, and grasping the plug and not the cord when pulling the headphone plug.
• To prevent possible auditory damage, loss of hearing, or damage to the headphones, the headphones should not be used at an excessively high volume. Listen at appropriate levels.
• The headphones may be damaged if the volume is too high when they are plugged in. Connect the headphones only after turning the volume down completely.
• Please use stereo headphones.

Using the Headphone Hook

Whenever you are not using the headphones, you can hang them on the headphone hook at the lower left of the HPi-7S.

Attaching the Headphone Hook

1. Press and twist the headphone hook included with the HPi-7S into the hole in the bottom left of the HPi-7S (refer to the figure below).
2. Turn the headphone hook wing nut to secure the headphone hook.

Some Notes on Using Headphone Hook

Do not hang anything other than headphones on the headphone hook. Doing so may damage the instrument or the hook.

Connecting a Microphone

You can connect a microphone into the Mic jack, and enjoy karaoke with the HPi-7S.

1. Connect a microphone (sold separately) to the Mic jack located in the jack panel on the lower left of the HPi-7S.
2. Rotate the Mic Volume knob on the left side of the Mic jack to adjust the volume level for the microphone.
3. Adjust the mic echo (p. 90).

Some Notes on Using a Microphone

• Be careful of high volume levels when using mikes late at night or early in the morning.
• When connecting a microphone to the HPi-7S, be sure to lower the volume. If the volume control is too high when the microphone is plugged in, noise may be produced by the speakers.

• Howling could be produced depending on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:

• Changing the orientation of the microphone.

• Relocating microphone at a greater distance from speakers.
• Lowering volume levels.

Adjusting the Contrast of the Screen

You can adjust the brightness of the HPi-7S's display.

1. To adjust the contrast of the screen, turn the [Contrast] knob located at the back of the music rest.

Some Notes on Using the LCD Screen

• Never remove the liquid crystal display cover at the back of the music rest. By removing it you risk electrical shock and/or malfunction.
• You may see vertical lines in the screen, but this is due to the structure of a liquid crystal display, and does not indicate a malfunction. By using the [Contrast] knob to adjust the contrast of the screen, you can minimize these lines.
• The contrast of the screen may be affected by the temperature.

Using USB Memory/Floppy Disk

A song you've recorded on the HPi-7S can be saved by copying it to separately sold USB memory (p. 84). You can also copy songs to a floppy disk using a separately sold floppy disk drive.

Notation + Settings

You can change the following settings in the "Notation+Settings" screen.

• If you have selected a part that contains no performance data, the notation will not show any notes. To change the part that is displayed, refer to "Changing the Notation Screen Settings" (p. 99).
• The fingering numbers shown in the screen indicate one possible fingering.

Some Notes on the Notation Screen

• When you begin song playback, the notation screen will show . While this symbol is displayed, performance data is being loaded from USB memory or internal memory. Thirty seconds or longer may be required to load the data. Please wait.
• The displayed notation is generated from the music files, and priority is given to making the display easy to read rather than reproducing a complicated or difficult performance accurately. For this reason, you may notice differences when compared with commercially available sheet music. In particular, this is not suitable for display of sophisticated or complex songs that require detailed notations.
• In the notation screen, lyrics or notes may fall outside the display range of the screen, and fail to be shown.
• A notation cannot be displayed for a song from a music CD or audio file.
• If you display the notation or change the displayed part during song playback, the song may sometimes play back from the beginning.

■ List Screen

This type of list screen will appear when you select songs, or tones. In this screen, use the cursor buttons to select the desired item.

Detailed Settings Screen

Detailed settings for functions are made in a screen similar to this. In this screen, you can then change the value with the cursor buttons. An explanation of the selected item is shown below the item. For some items, an explanation of the values will also be displayed.

When you press the [X] button, and you'll then be returned to the screen that was displayed prior to the current screen.

When P. * / * appears at the upper right of the screen, it indicates that there are other items on the previous or next page.

■ Messages

Various messages will sometimes be displayed during operation. These messages ask you to confirm an operation, inform you of the results of an operation, or indicate an error when an operation could not be performed.

For details on error messages that begin with "Error," refer to p. 116.

When a message like that to the right appears, select an answer with the cursor buttons, then press the [O] button to enter your selection. Pressing the [X] button closes the screen that is currently open.

About the Pedals

The pedals have the following functions, and are used mainly for piano performance.

Damper Pedal (right pedal)

Use this pedal to sustain the sound.

While this pedal is pressed, notes will be sustained even after you take your fingers off the keys.

The length of sustain will change subtly depending on how deeply you press the pedal.

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.

The HPi-7S simulates this damper resonance.

You can adjust the amount of damper resonance that occurs when you press the damper pedal. Refer to "Adjusting Resonance when the Damper Pedal is Depressed (Damper Resonance)" (p. 87).

Sostenuto Pedal (center pedal)

This pedal sustains only the sounds of the keys that were already played when you pressed the pedal.

Soft Pedal (left pedal)

This pedal is used to make the sound softer.

When you hold down this pedal and play the keyboard, the sound will have a softer tone. This is the same function as the left pedal of an acoustic piano.

The softness of the tone can be varied subtly by the depth to which you press the pedal.

The Sostenuto pedal and Soft pedal can be given functions other than these. Refer to "Notation Screen" (p. 26) and "Changing the Pedal Functions (Pedal)" (p. 91).

About the Adjuster

If you feel that the pedal is unstable (for example if you've moved the HPi-7S to a different location), you can adjust the adjuster located on the bottom of the pedals as follows.

• Rotate the adjustor to lower it so that it is in firm contact with the floor. 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.

Until you've learned a part you want to play, you can have that part be played at a reduced volume while you practice it. Once you've learned the part, you can press the track button to mute it completely, and play it yourself.

1. Hold down the track button until the Mute Volume screen appears.

2. Press the [-] [+] buttons to adjust the volume of the part.

The volume of the part can be adjusted within the 0-80 range.

NOTE

The Melody Guide function does not work for a music CD or audio file.

NOTE

When you turn off the power, the part volume will return to "0."

Adjusting the Tempo

This changes the song tempo.

If songs seem difficult to play at their original speed, you may find it helpful to first practice with the tempo slowed down. Then, after becoming more familiar with the song, you can practice it at a gradually faster tempo.

Changing the tempo has no effect on the pitch of the notes. Additionally you can change the tempo even when the song is in progress.

Press the Tempo [Slow] [Fast] buttons to adjust the tempo.

The tempo can be adjusted in a range of = 10 - 500 .

Playing Back at a Fixed Tempo (Tempo Mute)

Do not remove the storage media until the initialization is completed.

NOTE

If "Error" appears on screen, take a look at "Error Message" (p. 116).

Saving Songs

A recorded performance is discarded when you switch off the power or choose another song. You can store recorded song data to optional USB Memory and to the "Favorites." Be sure to save important songs to USB Memory or "Favorites."

What are "Favorites?"

You can register songs you are currently practicing or particularly like to "Favorites," allowing you to select these songs easily.

You can register songs recorded with the HPi-7S and songs saved to USB memory to the "Favorites." When you register a song on an USB memory to "Favorites," you can then play back the song without connecting the USB memory to the external memory connector.

If a recorded performance is saved to "Favorites," the performance won't be erased when the power is turned off.

Tone and Performance Settings

Adjusting the Volume Balance between accompaniment and keyboard (Volume Balance)

You can adjust the volume balance between the song and the sounds you play from the keyboard.

Refer to "Changing the Volume Balance of the Accompaniment and Keyboard (Balance)" (p. 61) for the procedure.

Adjusting the Piano Sounds (Piano Designer)

The HPi-7S is capable of reproducing a variety of the acoustic piano's distinctive characteristics. You can also adjust these to suit your own taste and style.

Refer to "Making the Settings" (previous section) for the procedure.

NOTE This setting is valid when some piano sounds are selected.

Opening/Closing the Piano Lid (Lid)

This simulates the actual changes in sound that occur when the lid of a grand piano is set at different heights.

Setting	Explanation
0-6	As the value decreases, the lid seems to close more, producing a softer sound. Increasing the value opens the lid more, producing a brighter sound.

Changing How Rapidly Sounds Are Expressed According to the Force Used to Play the Keys (Hammer Response)

You can adjust the timing with which sounds are produced according to the force used to play the keys.

When a key is pressed on an acoustic piano, it causes a hammer to move and strike the strings, producing sound. The hammers move more slowly when the keys are played gently, meaning that sounds are produced just slightly later than when you play the keyboard with greater force. If the Hammer Response function is turned on, the time between the moment you press a key until the sound is heard will change depending on the strength with which you play. As you play more softly, this time will become longer.

Setting	Explanation
Off, 1–10	The higher the value, the more slowly the hammers move when the keys are played gently. When set to Off, sounds are played immediately when the keys are pressed, regardless of the force used to play them.

Setting the Tuning Curve (Stretch Tuning)

Pianos are generally tuned so that the low range is flatter and the high range is sharper than equal tempered pitches. This method of tuning is unique to the piano, and is known as "Stretched Tuning."

Setting	Explanation
On	This tuning curve expands the low range and high range. It is suitable for piano solos.
Off	This is the standard tuning curve. This is the right choice when using Dual performance (p. 56), or when playing in ensemble with other instruments.

Adjusting Resonance when the Damper Pedal is Depressed (Damper Resonance)

You can adjust this resonance (Damper Resonance) when the damper pedal is depressed.

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. The resonance is called "Damper Resonance."

Setting	Explanation
Off, 1–10	Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect. When set to Off, no Damper Resonance is applied.

Adjusting the Resonant Sounds when the Keys are Pressed (String Resonance)

When the keys are pressed on an acoustic piano, the strings for keys that are already pressed also vibrate sympathetically. The function used to reproduce this resonance is called "String Resonance."

Setting	Explanation
Off, 1–10	Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect. When set to Off, no String Resonance is applied.

Playing Sounds When the Keys Are Released (Key Off Resonance)

This adjusts sympathetic vibrations such as an acoustic piano's key-off sound (the subtle sound that occurs when you release a note).

Setting	Explanation
Off, 1–10	Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect. When set to Off, no Key Off Resonance is applied.

Adjusting the Keyboard Touch (Key Touch)

You can adjust the touch (playing feel) of the keyboard.

Setting	Explanation
Fixed, Super Light, Light, Medium, Heavy, Super Heavy	You can adjust the sensitivity with which the keyboard responds to your playing. If you turn the keyboard's touch sensitivity “Fixed,” all notes will sound at a fixed loudness regardless of how strongly you play the keyboard.

Making Fine Adjustments to the Keyboard Touch Sensitivity (Key Touch Offset)

You can make fine adjustments to the touch sensitivity of the keyboard. You can adjust the keyboard touch in even greater detail than specified by the Key Touch setting (see preceding section)

Setting	Explanation
-10-0-9	Increasing this value will make the keyboard feel heavier.

Changing the Velocity When the Key Touch is Set to "Fixed" (Fix Velocity)

This sets the velocity the sound will have when the keyboard touch (p. p. 53, p. 87) is set to "Fixed."

If you turn the keyboard's touch sensitivity "Fixed," all notes will sound at a fixed loudness regardless of how strongly you play the keyboard. The setting described below specifies the loudness in this case.

Setting	Explanation
1-127	Increasing this value will increase the volume of your keyboard playing.

■ Listening to a Piano Designer demo

You can hear a demonstration of the various differences in sound created by the Piano Designer function (p. 86). When the Piano

Designer screen is shown, press the [O] button to access the Piano Designer Demo screen. To hear the demo, proceed as directed by the screen. You can also select the piano designer demo from "Select a Demo" screen (p. 93).

When you have finished with Piano Designer Demo, press the [X] button in the "Piano Designer Demo" screen.

Setting the Reference Pitch and Temperament (Tuning)

Tuning to Other Instruments' Pitches (Master Tuning)

In situations such as when playing ensemble with other instruments, you can tune the HPi-7S's standard pitch to the pitch of another instrument. For a cleaner ensemble sound while performing with one or more other instruments, ensure that each instrument's standard pitch is in tune with that of the other instruments. The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that's played when you finger the middle A key.

Setting

415.3 Hz-440.0 Hz-466.2 Hz

Changing the Tuning (Temperament)

You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic temperaments (tuning methods).

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. By playing in the temperament that was in use when a composition was created, you can experience the sonorities of chords originally intended for that song.

Setting	Explanation
Equal	This temperament divides the octave into 12 equal parts. All intervals will be slightly out of tune by the same amount.
Just (Maj)	This temperament makes the 5th and 3rd intervals pure. It is unsuitable for playing melodies and modulation is not possible, but it produces beautifully harmonious chords.
Just (min)	Just intonation differs between major and minor keys. The same results as major can be obtained in a minor key.
Arabic	This tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia.
Kirnberger	This temperament is a modification of meantone temperament and just intonation, allowing more freedom of modulation. It allows you to play in all keys (third method).
Pythagorean	This temperament is based on the theories of the Greek philosopher Pythagoras, and has pure fourths and fifths. Chords containing a third will sound impure, but melodies will sound good.
Meantone	This temperament is a partial compromise of just intonation in order to allow modulation.

Setting	Explanation
Werkmeister	This temperament is a combination of meantone and Pythagorean temperaments. It allows you to play in all keys. (First method, number three.)

When performing in ensemble with other instruments, be aware that depending on the key, there may be some shifting of the pitch. Tune the HPi-7S to the fundamental pitch of the other instruments.

Setting the Tonic (Key)

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.

Setting

C,C#,D,Eb,E,F,F#,G,Ab,A,Bb,B

Adjusting the Depth of the Effects (Effect)

You can adjust the depth of the reverb (p. 54) and chorus (p. 54).

Refer to "Making the Settings" (p. 86) for instructions.

Reverb

Setting	Explanation
1–10	Increasing the value will increase the amount of reverb effect.

This setting is valid when the [Reverb] button is turned on to apply an effect to the sound.

Holding down the [Reverb] button, press the cursor up or down button to adjust the depth of reverb effect.

You cannot make separate reverber effect depth settings for each individual tone. The effect will be applied with the same depth to all tones.

This will not change the reverb depth for the song that is playing back.

Chorus

You can set the amount of chorus applied for each tone individually.

1. Select the tone for which you want to adjust the chorus.
2. Press the [Function] button.
3. Press the cursor buttons to select <Effect> , then press the [O] button.
4. Press the cursor right button to select .
5. Press the cursor up or down button to change the setting.

Setting	Explanation
1–10	The amount of chorus effect applied increases as the value is raised.

As long as the power to the HPi-7S is turned on, you can store the chorus settings to each tone individually. In addition, you can use the Memory Backup function (p. 97) to keep the stored settings even when the power is turned off.

Changing the Brightness of the Sound/Making the Sound Expressive (Adjusting the sound)

You can adjust the brightness of the sound, or make it more expressive.

"Adjusting the Brightness of the Sound (Brilliance)" (p. 55)
"Adding Liveliness to the Sound (Dynamics Sound Control)" (p. 55)

Giving the Sound More Spatial Depth (3D Sound Control)

You can use the internal speakers to add a three-dimensional spaciousness to the sound of the accompaniment.

Adjusting the Depth of the Sound (Depth)

The HPi-7S provides a "3D Sound Control" function, which creates the sense of spatial depth that you experience when playing a grand piano. This function adds the natural resonance and spaciousness that are characteristic of an acoustic piano.

Refer to "Making the Settings" (p. 86) for instructions.

You can adjust the spatial depth over four levels.

Setting	Explanation
Off,1-4	Increasing the value will increase the spatial depth of the sound. When set to Off, no 3D Sound Control effect is applied.

You can use the Memory Backup function to store this setting in internal memory (p. 97).

You can change the way in which the 3D Sound Control function is applied (p. 90).

3D Sound Control does not affect the sound from the Input jack or the sound of external devices connected to the MIDI Out connector.

When you turn Twin Piano on or Dynamic Sound Control on, 3D Sound Control will be turned off.

If you use the Transpose function (p. 68) or the Center Cancel function (p. 49) when a music CD song or an audio file is selected, 3D Sound Control will be turned off.

Changing How Grand Space is Applied (3D Mode)

This specifies how 3D Sound Control will be applied.

Refer to "Making the Settings" (p. 86) for instructions.

Setting	Explanation
Auto	When the headphones are connected, the depth effect is optimized for headphones, and when no headphones are connected, the optimal depth for speakers is applied.
Speaker	The optimal depth for speakers is used, regardless of whether or not headphones are connected. 3D sound control is also applied to the sound output from the Output connectors, making this convenient when you want to play through speakers connected to the Output connectors.
Headphones	The optimal depth for headphones is used, regardless of whether or not headphones are connected.

Adjusting the Volume of an Audio File (Audio Volume)

You can adjust the volume at which an audio file or music CD will play.

"Adjusting the Volume of an Audio File or Music CD" (p. 49)

Adjusting the Depth of Mic Echo (Mic Echo)

When using a mic, you can apply an effect similar to a karaoke echo to the sound of the mic.

Refer to "Making the Settings" (p. 86) for instructions.

Setting	Explanation
Off, 1–10	Increasing this value will apply the echo more strongly.

Adjusting the tonal character (Equalizer)

Recording and Playback Setting

Changing the Parts Assigned to the Track Buttons During SMF Playback (Track Assign)

Ordinarily, when playing back SMF music files for Roland Piano Digital instruments (p. 125), the left-hand part is assigned to the Track [3/Left] button, and the right-hand part is assigned to the Track [4/Right] button. However, right-hand and left-hand part assignments in certain SMF music files may differ.

If these are set to "Auto," and as a result you are unable to use the track buttons to control the left- and right-hand parts properly, change the setting to "2/1 Part" or "3/4 Part."

Refer to "Making the Settings" (p. 86) for instructions.

Setting	Explanation
Auto	The part assigned to each track will be determined automatically, depending on the song file.
2/1 Part	Part 1 will be assigned to the right-hand track, part 2 to the left-hand track, and part 3 to the user track.
3/4 Part	Part 4 will be assigned to the right-hand track, part 3 to the left-hand track, and part 1 to the user track.

The Track Assign function does not affect internal songs or song data that is other than SMF format.

After changing this setting, try selecting the song once again.

Recording and Playing Back Performances of Specific Instruments (16 Track)

The HPi-7S lets you record 16 separate parts. Multitrack recording is a method of recording whereby you listen to what has previously been recorded while recording new parts on top of that material.

By recording a different tone to each part, you can create song data for performances that feature up to 16 different tones layered together.

The function used for recording the 16 individual parts one at a time is called the "16-track sequencer."

16-Track Sequencer

You can record performances for up to 16 parts, overlaying them part by part, to create a single song.

16-Track Sequencer and the Track Buttons

In addition to the "16-Track Sequencer" function, the "Track Buttons" (p. 59) are another of the unit's playing/recording functions.

These "track buttons" group the 16-track sequencer's 16 parts with five buttons. Using the 16-track sequencer to work with performances recorded with the track buttons allows you to record even more sounds and edit with precision.

The track buttons correspond to the 16-track sequencer's parts as shown below.

Track button	16-track Sequencer's Part
[R/Rhythm]	10, 11
[1/User]	1
[2/Accomp]	2, 5-9, 12-16
[3/Left]	3
[4/Right]	4

Each of the 16-track sequencer's parts is used for recording a single tone, so you cannot use it to record tones that combine two tones simultaneously, as in Dual (p. 56) and Split (p. 57) performances.

You can also change the tones in each part, select specific parts for playback (solo), and prevent specified parts from playing (mute). Playback with only a single part muted is called "Minus One."

You can even set solo and muting during playback.

Part 11 of Roland SMF music file that is available for purchase is included with the track button [2/Accomp], but the correspondence of other parts to the track buttons is the same.

Modifying the Tone Changes in a Song (PC Edit)

In some songs, the instrument sound changes during the course of the song (that is, the Tone changes in the middle of a Part). In such songs, an instruction to switch the Tone is inserted at the place where you want the sound to change. This instruction is called a "Program Change" (PC), and actions such as deleting program changes, or changing the selected Tone by them are called "PC Edit."

• It is not possible to insert a program change into a measure or beat that does not contain a program change.

Refer to "Basic Operation of the Editing Functions" (p. 100) for instructions.

The PC-location display uses "Measure: Beat: Tick" as the format.

Item	Explanation	Setting
Transmit Channel	Chooses the MIDI send channel.	1–16

- Disconnecting the Internal Sound Generator and Keyboard (Local Control)

When you have a MIDI sequencer connected, set this parameter to Local Off. Since the Thru function of your sequencer will normally be turned on, notes played on the keyboard or played back by the recorder will be transmitted to the sound generator by the two routes (1) and (2) shown in the illustration, causing notes to be sounded in duplicate or to be cut off unnaturally. To prevent this, the setting called "Local Off" is used to disconnect the route in (1).

Local On: The keyboard and recorder are connected to the internal sound generator.

Local Off: The keyboard and recorder are not connected to the internal sound generator. No sound will be produced by the keyboard when it is played.

When a Roland MT series instrument is connected, it is not necessary to make the Local Off setting. The MT transmits a Local Off message when the power is turned on. If you turn on the power in the order of the HPi-7S MT series, Local Off will be set automatically.

Item	Explanation	Setting
Composer Out	Specify whether a recorded performance will be transmitted to a MIDI device.	On, Off

Sending Tone Change Messages (Program Change/Bank Select MSB/Bank Select LSB)

A Program Change is a message that means "change to the Tone of the specified number." The device that receives this changes to the Tone of the corresponding number.

When you choose a Program Change message (Program Number), the Program Number will be transmitted to the MIDI device connected to the HPi-7S. The MIDI device that receives the Program Number changes the tone to the corresponding Program Number.

Normally, the Tone is selected from the 128 Tones available. Some MIDI devices, however, have more than 128 Tones. With such devices, the Tone is selected through a combination of Program

Change messages and Bank Select messages. There are two parts of a Bank Select message: the MSB (Controller 0, with a value of 0-127) and the LSB (Controller 32, with a value of 0-127).

Some MIDI devices cannot use bank select messages. Alternatively, some devices may use bank select messages, but ignore the LSB message.

Item	Explanation	Setting
Bank Select MSB	Transmit the bank select MSB.	0 (00h)–127 (7Fh)
Bank Select LSB	Transmit the bank select LSB.	0 (00h)–127 (7Fh)
Program Change	Transmit the program number.	1 (00h)–128 (7Fh)

Case	Cause/Remedy
The power doesn’t come on	Is the power cord connected and plugged in correctly? (p. 17)
The button doesn’t work	Is Panel Lock activated? (p. 98)Hold down the One Touch [ Piano ] button and press the [Count/Marker] button to turn off the Panel Lock function.
Nothing appears on screen	The HPi-7S uses a liquid-crystal screen, so text may not be displayed when the ambient temperature is below freezing.
	Is the music rest (screen) connection cable connected correctly? (p. 16)
	Is Panel Lock activated? (p. 98)While Panel Lock is on, the screen display and the indicators for all buttons are turned off.
Vertical lines appear in the screen/Color is “washed out” at the edges of the screen	These occur due to the nature of a liquid crystal display, and do not indicate a malfunction. They can be minimized by adjusting the brightness of the screen (p. 20).
Depressing a pedal has no effect, or the pedal effect doesn’t stop	Is the pedal connected correctly?Make sure the pedal cord extending from the stand is securely connected to the pedal jack on the bottom of the unit (p. 16).
	Has a different function been assigned to the pedal?See “Changing the Pedal Functions (Pedal)”(p. 91).
	Normal pedal operation is automatically enabled when the One Touch [ Piano ] button is pressed (p. 50).
	Is the HPi-7S set to Twin Piano?The pedal functions are changed automatically when the Twin Piano function is on (p. 34).
The pedal rattles	Adjust the adjuster underneath the pedal so that the pedal presses firmly against the floor surface (p. 29).
The volume level of the instrument connected to Input jacks is too low	Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor?If you use a connecting cable that contains a built-in resistor, the volume of the device connected to the Input connector may be very low. In such cases, please use a connecting cable that does not contain a resistor (such as one from the Roland PCS series).
Unable to read from/write to USB memory	Are you using (optional) Roland memory?Reliable performance cannot be guaranteed if you use non-Roland memory products.

Case	Cause/Remedy
Low hum coming from external device	Do you have different external devices plugged into different power outlets?When connecting external devices, always draw power from the same outlet.
Performance begins suddenly	The HPi-7S can be set so that the demo begins playing automatically after the instrument has remained idle for five to ten minutes.Switch this setting (Auto Start) to “Off.”Refer to “Setting the Demo (Auto Demo)” (p. 93).
Can’t select a tone	Press the [×] button several times to return to the notation screen (p. 26), and then select a tone.
No sound is heard
No sound is heard	Is the volume level of the HPi-7S (p. 18) or connected device turned all the way down?
	Are headphones plugged in?Has a plug remained connected to the Phones jack? (p. 18)When headphones or plugs are connected, the keyboard’s speaker stops playing.
	Could the “Balance” setting be set all the way toward “Accomp” or “Keyboard”? (p. 61)
	Has Local Control been set to “Off”?When Local Control is set to Off, no sound is produced by playing the keyboard. Set Local Control to On(p. 108).
No sound from left-hand section of keyboard	Is V-LINK switched on? (p. 98)When V-LINK is switched on, the twelve keys at the left end of the keyboard are used to control images, and no sounds are played with these keys.
No sound is heard (when a MIDI instrument is connected)	Have all devices been switched on? (p. 107)
	Are the MIDI cables connected correctly? (p. 107)
	Does the MIDI channel match the connected instrument? (p. 108)
No sound is heard when the keyboard is played	Has Local Control been set to “Off”?When Local Control is set to Off, no sound is produced by playing the keyboard, Set Local Control to On (p. 108).
Not all played notes are sounded	The maximum number of notes that the HPi-7S can play simultaneously is 128. 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 sound is strange
Sounds are heard twice (doubled) when the keyboard is played	Is the HPi-7S in Dual performance? (p. 56)
	When the HPi-7S is connected to an external sequencer, set the Local Control to off (p. 108). Alternatively, the sequencer could be set so its Soft Thru feature is Off.
The tuning or pitch of the keyboard or song is off	Have you set Transpose? (p. 68)
	Are the settings for the "Temperament" (p. 88) and "Stretch Tuning" (p. 87) correct?
	Is the setting for the "Master Tuning" correct? (p. 88)
The wrong instrument is selected when you press the [String], [Voice], or [Others] button	Tone buttons [String] [Voice] [Others] also operate as buttons that select "Recommended Tones." With the factory settings, connecting a commercially-available CD-ROM drive to the external memory connector and selecting a song from a CD-ROM produced for the VIMA (VIMA TUNES) will automatically cause sounds appropriate for that song to be assigned to the [String], [Voice], or [Others] Tone buttons, so that you can select "recommended" tones by pressing one of these buttons. You can also make settings so that "recommended" tones are not automatically assigned (p. 96).
Volume of keyboard is too low	Could the "Balance" setting be set all the way toward "Accomp"? (p. 61)
The Tone has changed	When a performance made along with a Music Files tune has been recorded, recording the performance to button [1/User] may make the Tones for buttons [3/Left] and [4/Right] change as well.
Reverberation still audible even with Reverb turned off	Since the HPi-7S's piano sounds faithfully reproduce the sense of spaciousness and reverberation of an actual acoustic piano's sound, a certain amount of reverberation is still perceptible, even with the reverb effect deactivated.
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. On the HPi-7S, the range that is unaffected by the damper pedal will change depending on the Key Transpose setting.
A High-pitched whine is produced	When listening through headphones: Some of the more flamboyant and effervescent piano tones feature an ample high-end component, which may make the sound appear to have metallic reverberation added. Since this reverberation 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 HPi-7S) would be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center.

Case	Cause/Remedy
The bass range sounds odd, or there is a vibrating resonance	When listening through speakers: Playing at loud volumes may cause instruments near the HPi-7S 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. •Reduce the volume. •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.

Song doesn't play back correctly
Song doesn't play back	Does the screen indicate message, like “OK to delete Song?” (p. 42) The internal songs cannot be played back while recorded performance data remains in the HPi-7S's memory. Try playing back the song after deleting the performance data.
Only the sound of a particular instrument in a song does not play	Is the indicator for the Track button extinguished? (p. 59, p. 73, p. 94) If the button indicator is out, the music on that track is not heard. Press the track button so the indicator is illuminated. Or cancel the mute in the “16-track Sequencer” screen.
Pressing the [I-(Reset)] button doesn't return to the beginning of the song	Some music files may contain settings that stop playing back at a point partway through the song. Press the [I-(Reset)] button several times more to return to the beginning of the tune.
	Has a Marker placed in the song? (p. 66)
The [I-(Bwd)] and [I-(Fwd)] buttons don't work	The [I-(Bwd)] and [I-(Fwd)] buttons are ignored while music files is being read in. Wait until processing finishes.
	If you attempt to play back performance data that contains more data than the entire capacity of the HPi-7S's memory, you may find that operations other than playback (such as rewind or fast forward) become unavailable.
There is a slight delay before playback of a song on USB memory starts	There are two types of SMF music files: format 0 and format 1. If the song uses SMF format 1 data, there will be a slight delay until playback starts. Refer to the booklet that came with the music files you're using to determine the format type.
Lyrics are not indicated properly in the display	With some music files, the lyrics cannot be displayed correctly.
	In the notation screen, some lyrics or notes could extend beyond the edges of the screen, and not be displayed.
Case	Cause/Remedy
Notation is not indicated properly in the display	If you select a part that does not contain performance data, notes will not be displayed in the notation. Change the part that is displayed (p. 99).
	The notation screen feature is particularly unsuitable for the display of difficult, complex musical works that demand accurate notation. Refer to “Some Notes on the Notation Screen” (p. 27).
	In the notation screen, some lyrics or notes could extend beyond the edges of the screen, and not be displayed.
Movement of notation or keyboard display not smooth	There may be times when a complex variety of information is being displayed or when a large amount of data is displayed at one time. Change the notation display settings as described below. • Set “Bouncing Ball” to “Off” (p. 99) • Set “Color Notation” to “Off” (p. 99) • Set “Keyboard” to “Off” (p. 26)
Song becomes unstable	In certain cases, such as when playing the songs on USB memory, the song may lag when excessive amounts of performance data are used.
Demo song not playing	Could <BGM>, an “Auto Demo” setting, be switched off (p. 93)?
Can’t play back a song saved in USB memory	The song name will not be shown if the song information in the file is empty or consists only of spaces.
	Is the filename extension “MID”? Files with other file name extensions cannot be handled as song data.
Titles of songs on USB memory or floppy disks not being displayed	Has the song name data (Sequence/Track Name Meta Event) been entered in the file? Song titles are not displayed if the song name data is blank or consists exclusively of spaces.
	Is the file name no more than eight single-byte characters?
	Is “MID” used as the extension? The song cannot be treated as song data if a different extension is used.
Volume of accompaniment or internal song is too low	Could the “Balance” setting be set all the way toward “Keyboard”? (p. 61)

Case	Cause/Remedy
Can’t record
Can’t record	Has one of the track buttons for recording been selected? (p. 73, p. 75, p. 77)
	It is not possible to record while the notation is being generated. Once the unit has finished generating the notation (i.e., when the measure number in the screen is no longer highlighted), try the operation once again.
Tempo of recorded song or metronome is off	If you select an internal song in which the tempo changes during the song, and then record, the tempo will change in the same way for the performances that are recorded on the other tracks. The tempo of the metronome will also change in the same way.
	If you record additional material without erasing the previously recorded song, the song will be recorded at the first-recorded tempo. Please erase the previously recorded song before you re-record (p. 76).
The recorded performance has disappeared	Any performance that has been recorded is deleted when the power to the HPi-7S is turned off or a song is selected. A performance cannot be restored once it's been deleted. Be sure to save it on an USB memory or “Favorites” (HPi-7S Memory) before you turn off the power (p. 80).
About the audio file
Can’t play back an audio file	Is the audio file in a format supported by the HPi-7S? Audio files of the following format can be played back. •File extension “WAV” •16-bit linear •“44.1 kHz” sampling rate
Can’t record along with an audio file	The HPi-7S can’t record using audio files or copy them into “Favorites”.

What Are Music Files?

Music files contains musical information such as how long the key for a corresponding pitch is played, the force applied to the key played, and other such information. Performance data is transmitted to the HPi-7S from music files saved in USB memory and CD-ROM, and played back without change as songs. This is different than a audio CD, since the music file does not contain a recording of the sound itself. This makes it possible to change tempos and keys freely, allowing you to use it in many different ways.

Regarding Copyright

Use of the internal songs for any purpose other than private, personal enjoyment without the permission of the copyright holder is prohibited by law. Additionally, this data must not be copied, nor used in a secondary copyrighted work without the permission of the copyright holder.

Please be aware that if you create derivative works that are based on existing copyrighted material, such as commercially available SMF music files, such works may violate copyright law if used for any purpose other than personal enjoyment. Roland takes no responsibility for any copyright violation you may commit by creating such works.

The HPi-7S Allows You To Use the Following Music Files

VIMA TUNES VIMA TUNES

VIMA TUNES is a Roland specification for music files that contains image and lyric data, allowing you to enjoy songs with lyrics and images simultaneously. When data bearing the "VIMA TUNES" logo is played back on a device that bears the same logo, lyrics can be shown on the screen of a connected external display or television, letting you enjoy karaoke or watch a slide show.

SMF Music Files

SMFs (Standard MIDI Files) use a standard format for music file that was formulated so that files containing music file could be widely compatible, regardless of the manufacturer of the listening device. An enormous variety of music is available, whether it be for listening, for practicing musical instruments, for Karaoke, etc.

SMF with Lyrics SMF LYRICS

"SMF with Lyrics" refers to SMF (Standard MIDI File) that contains the lyrics. When Music Files carrying the "SMF with Lyrics" logo are played back on a compatible device (one bearing the same logo), the lyrics will appear in its display.

The HPi-7S come equipped with GM 2/GS sound generators.

About the HPi-7S Sound Generator

The HPi-7S come equipped with GM 2/GS sound generators.

General MlDI

The General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks to provide a way to go beyond the limitations of proprietary designs, and standardize the MIDI capabilities of sound generating devices. Sound generating devices and music files that meets the General MIDI standard bears the General MIDI logo. Music files bearing the General MIDI logo can be played back using any General MIDI sound generating unit to produce essentially the same musical performance.

General MIDI 2

The upwardly compatible General MIDI 2 recommendations pick up where the original General MIDI left off, offering enhanced expressive capabilities, and even greater compatibility. Issues that were not covered by the original General MIDI recommendations, such as how sounds are to be edited, and how effects should be handled, have now been precisely defined. Moreover, the available sounds have been expanded. General MIDI 2 compliant sound generators are capable of reliably playing back music files that carry either the General MIDI or General MIDI 2 logo.

In some cases, the conventional form of General MIDI, which does not include the new enhancements, is referred to as "General MIDI 1" as a way of distinguishing it from General MIDI 2.

GS Format

The GS Format is Roland's set of specifications for standardizing the performance of sound generating devices. In addition to including support for everything defined by the General MIDI, the highly compatible GS Format additionally offers an expanded number of sounds, provides for the editing of sounds, and spells out many details for a wide range of extra features, including effects such as reverb and chorus. Designed with the future in mind, the GS Format can readily include new sounds and support new hardware features when they arrive. Since it is upwardly compatible with the General MIDI, Roland's GS Format is capable of reliably playing back GM Scores equally as well as it performs GS music files (music files that have been created with the GS Format in mind). This product supports both the General MIDI 2 and the GS Format, and can be used to play back music data carrying either of these logos.

XG lite

XG is a tone generator format of YAMAHA Corporation, that defines the ways in which voices are expanded or edited and the structure and type of effects, in addition to the General MIDI 1 specification. XGlite is a simplified version of XG tone generation format. You can play back any XG music files using an XGlite tone generator. However, keep in mind that some music files may play back differently compared to the original files, due to the reduced set of control parameters and effects.
