IMPO RTAN T N O TES  
291a  
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2, please read and observe the following:  
Po w e r Su p p ly  
301  
Ma in te n a n ce  
401b  
Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any  
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric  
motor or variable lighting system).  
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.  
302  
When the AC adaptor is used for extended periods, both  
the adaptor itself, and the area around the F-90s DC In  
connector will become somewhat warm; however, this  
does not indicate a malfunction.  
402  
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any  
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/ or  
deformation.  
307  
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.  
Ad d itio n a l Pre ca u tio n s  
553  
Use a reasonable amount of care when using the units  
buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks  
and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.  
Pla ce m e n t  
351  
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 inter-  
ference.  
556  
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 cables  
internal elements.  
352  
557  
This device may interfere with radio and television  
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such  
receivers.  
A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during  
normal operation.  
558a  
354b  
To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the units  
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near  
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).  
devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed  
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.  
Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used  
while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a  
piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the  
same area of the unit for extended periods of time.  
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.  
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.  
355  
562  
To avoid possible breakdown, do not use the unit in a wet  
area, such as an area exposed to rain or other moisture.  
Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using  
some other make of connection cable, please note the  
following precautions.  
356  
Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain  
on the piano for long periods of time. Such objects can  
discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.  
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use  
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this  
unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level  
to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For infor-  
mation on cable specifications, contact the manufac-  
turer of the cable.  
357  
Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower  
vases) on the piano. Also, avoid the use of insecticides,  
perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc., near the  
unit. Swiftly wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit  
using a dry, soft cloth.  
358  
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.  
359  
Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.  
Peeling these off, particularly when strong adhesives have  
been used, can damage the instruments exterior finish  
(the stickers provided with this instrument feature a weak  
adhesive).

In situations such as when playing ensemble with other  
instruments, you can tune the F-90s reference pitch to the  
pitch of another instrument. The reference pitch generally  
refers to the pitch of the note thats played when you finger  
the middle A key.  
You can transpose the key of a performance without having  
to shift the position of your fingers on the keyboard.  
This feature is called “Key Transpose.”  
In situations such as when providing accompaniment to a  
song, using the Key Transpose function to match the singers  
vocal register lets you easily transpose the sounds without  
changing the score.  
For a cleaner ensemble sound while performing with one or  
more other instruments, ensure that each instruments  
reference pitch is in tune with that of the other instruments.  
This tuning of all the instruments to a reference pitch is  
called “master tuning.” You can set the reference pitch  
anywhere in a range of 415.3 Hz to 466.2 Hz.  
These settings remains in effect until you turn off the power.

Co n n e ctin g to MIDI De vice s  
Se t th e MIDI Ch a n n e l  
MIDI features sixteen MIDI channels, numbered 1–16.  
The connected devices must be set to use the same MIDI  
channels, otherwise no sound will be produced.  
In a setup where you wish to play the F-90 and also have  
another MIDI-equipped instrument or sound module play  
the same notes, you should first set the channel used for  
reception on your external device to the same channel that  
you have the F-90 set to use for transmission.  
means that if you are using a MIDI keyboard or MIDI  
sequencer to play the F-90s tones, messages will be received  
on all channels, regardless of any MIDI channel settings. If  
you want to receive only on a specific channel that a  
connected MIDI device will be using, switch the F-90 to  
Omni Off, then set the MIDI channel.  
When the F-90 is turned on, Channel “1” is selected.  
1 . While holding down the [Variation], and [Demo]  
buttons, press the appropriate key (C5–D#6) on  
the keyboard.  
The MIDI transmit channel and receive channel will  
switch to the number that corresponds to the note you  
pressed.

Tro u b le sh o o tin g  
If you are encountering problems with the unit, please read  
the section below before assuming that there is a  
malfunction.  
Case  
Cause/What to do  
If you can’t hear the prob-  
lem in the headphones:  
When playing at high vol-  
umes, resonance may oc-  
cur in the piano itself or in  
objects near the piano. At  
times, other objects in the  
room, such as fluorescent  
lights or glass doors, could  
start vibrating. Such phe-  
nomenon becomes more  
prevalent when sounding  
the lower frequencies at  
high volume. To minimize  
such unwanted resonance,  
please observe the follow-  
ing:  
Case  
Cause/What to do  
The piano cannot be  
switched on  
Is the AC adaptor properly  
Is the [Volume] knob set to  
Are the headphones connect-  
No sound is produced  
Is Local On/ Off set to “Off”?  
Bass notes sound wrong/  
buzzing or vibration oc-  
curs  
Is the speaker cable properly  
- Locate the instrument so  
it is 10-15 cm away from  
walls.  
- Reduce the volume.  
- Increase the distance  
from the object that is  
resonating.  
Depending on the setting for  
volume balance, and the par-  
ticular selection of tones you  
make, certain tones may be  
difficult to hear when layered.  
Try adjusting volume balance  
Only One Tone Plays in

If you can hear the problem  
in the headphones:  
Demo songs do not play  
Metronome does not  
sound  
The problem may be for a  
different reason. Please  
contact your dealer.

Could you be using a connec-

Use a connection cable that  
does not contain a resistor.  
On an acoustic piano, notes in  
the upper one and a half oc-  
taves of the keyboard contin-  
ue to sound until they decay  
naturally, regardless of the  
damper pedal. There is a dif-  
ference in the timbre as well.  
Roland pianos faithfully sim-  
ulate such characteristics of  
the acoustic piano. On the F-  
90, the range that is unaffect-  
ed by the damper pedal will  
change depending on the Key  
Transpose setting.  
The volume level of the  
instrument connected to  
the Input jack is too low.  
In the upper range, the  
sound changes abruptly  
beyond a certain key
