Recording the Song You’re Practicing

It’s easy to record your own performances.

You can play back a recorded performance to check your playing, or perform along with a recorded performance.

The LX-15 lets you record in the following ways.

Type of recording

SMF recording

Explanation

Parts will be separate.

You can re-record a speciﬁc portion of the song.

You can overdub.

* Normally, you should use SMF recording.

Your performance will be recorded as audio data. The recorded song can be used on your computer.

* In order to use audio recording, you must connect a USB ﬂash drive (sold separately) to the USB memory connector (p. 11).

* Thanks to its multiple number of speakers, each of which can be used to play a diﬀerent portion of the overall sound, the LX-15 is capable of

producing piano sounds that possess great depth and seem to have three-dimensional presence.

Audio recording

Such eﬀects are produced when you play something on the keyboard, or when you play back a song that's been recorded as an SMF. However,

when you make an audio recording, the song will consist of two channels (stereo), and such eﬀects cannot be reproduced.

* 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.

This adjusts the LX-15’s standard pitch (the pitch of the middle A note).

When playing ensemble with other instruments and in other such instances, you can match the standard pitch to another

instrument.

415 3–440 0–466 2 Hz

(default: 440.0 Hz)

The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you ﬁnger the middle A key. 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. This tuning of all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “master tuning.”

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

Equal, Just Major, Just

Minor, Pythagorean,

Kirnberger, Meantone,

Werckmeister, Arabic

Most modern songs are composed for and played in equal temperament, the most common tuning in use today. But at one

time, there were a wide variety of other tuning systems in existence.

Temperament

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.

(default: Equal)

For details, refer to “Temperaments”.

When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the temperament key 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).

C–B

Temperament

Key

(default: C)

If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to select a temperament key.

This lets you specify the amount of “stretch tuning,”a tuning method speciﬁcally for pianos, in which the high range is

tuned slightly sharper, and the low range is tuned slightly ﬂatter.

Oﬀ, Preset, User

(User: -50–0–+50)

Stretch Tuning

If you select “Preset,”a standard tuning curve created for the LX-15 will be used.

(default: Preset)

If you select “User,”you’ll be able to edit the stretched tuning yourself. Play the key whose pitch you want to adjust, then use

the [–] [+] buttons to adjust its pitch.

For some parameters, you can listen to a demo song.

Temperaments

Temperament

Equal

Qualities

In this tuning, each octave is divided into twelve equal steps. Every interval produces about the same amount of slight dissonance.

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.

Just Major

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.

This tuning, devised by the philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and ﬁfths.

Dissonance is produced by third-interval chords, but melodies are euphonious.

Pythagorean

Kirnberger

This is an improvement of the Meantone and Just tunings that provides a high degree of freedom of modulation. Performances are possible

in all keys (III).

Meantone

Werckmeister

Arabic

This scale makes some compromises in just intonation, enabling transposition to other keys.

This temperament combines the Meantone and Pythagorean tunings. Performances are possible in all keys (ﬁrst technique, III).

This tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia.

What is the duplex scale?

The Duplex Scale is a system of sympathetically vibrating strings sometimes included in grand pianos.

These sympathetically vibrating strings are not struck directly with hammers, but sound by vibrating in sympathy with the vibrations of other strings. By resonating with

the overtones, these strings add richness and brilliance to the sound. These sympathetic strings are added only to the high register above approximately C4. Since they do

not have a damper (a mechanism that stops them from sounding), they will continue sounding even after you play a note and then release it to stop the sound of the string

that was actually struck.

Speciﬁes the MIDI channel used to transmit MIDI messages to the Visual Control device.

What is MIDI visual control?

MIDI Visual Control is an internationally-used recommended practice that was added to the MIDI speciﬁcation so that visual

expression could be linked with musical performance. Video equipment that is compatible with MIDI Visual Control can be

connected to electronic musical instruments via MIDI in order to control video equipment in tandem with a performance.

What is V-LINK?

V-LINK is Roland’s proprietary speciﬁcation that allows visual expression to be linked with musical performance.

Video equipment that is compatible with V-LINK can be connected to electronic musical instruments via their MIDI

ports, making it easy to enjoy a variety of visual eﬀects that are linked with the performance.

Connection examples

Connect a MIDI cable from this unit’s MIDI Out connector (p. 11) to the MIDI In connector of your Visual Control compatible device.

* You’ll need a MIDI cable (sold separately) in order to connect this unit to a device that supports Visual Control.

Troubleshooting

Symptom

Cause/Action

Page

LX-15 uses a hammer action keyboard in order to simulate an acoustic piano’s playing touch as realistically as possible. For this

reason, you’ll hear the hammers thump when you play the keyboard, just as you would when playing an acoustic piano. Since

this unit allows you to adjust its volume, you might notice the sound of the hammers in certain situations, but this does not

a thumping sound is heard when indicate a malfunction. If vibration transmitted to the ﬂoor or walls is a concern, you may be able to minimize the vibration

you play the keyboard

by moving the piano away from the wall, or by laying down a commercially available anti-vibration mat designed for use with

pianos.

When 30 minutes have elapsed since you last played or operated this unit, the power will turn oﬀ automatically. (This is the

factory setting).

Power turns oﬀ on its own

p. 40

If you don’t need the power to turn oﬀ automatically, turn the “Auto Oﬀ”setting “Oﬀ.”

Is the power cord connected correctly?

p. 58

–

Power does not turn on

Could you have turned the power on again immediately after turning the power oﬀ?

Allow an interval of at least ﬁve seconds before turning the power on again.

Screen display is irregular when

power is turned on/oﬀ

Since the LX-15 uses a liquid-crystal display, you may ﬁnd that it is unable to display letters or other things in environments

where temperatures go below 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit).

–

Is the pedal connected correctly?

Plug the cable ﬁrmly into the pedal connector.

p. 59

If you disconnect the pedal cord from the LX-15 while the power is on, the pedal eﬀect may remain “stuck”in the On condition.

You must power-oﬀ the LX-15 before connecting or disconnecting the pedal cord.

Could you have changed how the pedal eﬀect is applied?

p. 45

p. 20

p. 46

If the damper pedal part is set to Right, the pedal will apply only to the right tone; if it is set to Left, the pedal will apply only to

the left tone.

Could Twin Piano be turned on?

If Twin Piano is on, the right pedal will aﬀect only the right-hand keyboard zone and the left pedal will aﬀect only the left-hand

keyboard zone.

Could you have changed the function of the pedal?

If you’ve switched the function of the soft pedal or sostenuto pedal, these pedals will not operate as the soft pedal or sostenuto

pedal.

p. 39

The maximum simultaneous polyphony is 128 voices. If you are playing along with a song and making heavy use of the damper

pedal, the number of notes the LX-15 is attempting to produce may exceed the maximum polyphony, meaning that some of the

notes will drop out.

Not all the notes you play are

sounded

Tone buttons [E. Piano] [Strings] [Other] also operate as buttons that select “Recommended Tones.”

The wrong instrument is selected

when you press the [E Piano],

[Strings], or [Other] button

Connecting a commercially-available CD-ROM drive to the USB ﬂash drive 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 [E. Piano],

[Strings], and [Other] Tone buttons, so that you can select “recommended”sounds by pressing one of these buttons.

p. 14

When you are using Dual play or Split play, and diﬀerent eﬀects are speciﬁed for the two selected tones, the eﬀect will not be

applied to Tone 2 (when using Dual play) or the left-hand tone (when using Split play).

Eﬀect does not apply

–

The LX-15’s piano sound faithfully simulates the depth and resonance of an acoustic piano, and this may give the impression of

reverberation even if you’ve defeated the Ambience eﬀect.

Also, you may be able to eliminate some reverberation by reducing the value set for “Cabinet Resonance.”

Reverberation remains even if You

defeat the Ambience eﬀect

p. 39

On an acoustic piano, the approximately one and a half octaves of notes at the top of the keyboard will continue sounding

regardless of the damper pedal. These notes also have a somewhat diﬀerent tonal character. LX-15 faithfully simulate this

characteristic of acoustic pianos. On the LX-15, the range that is unaﬀected by the damper pedal will change according to the

key transpose setting.

The sound of the higher notes

suddenly changes from a certain

key

–

Is the speaker cable connected correctly?

p. 58

If you hear this in headphones:

Piano sounds that have a brilliant and crisp character contain substantial high-frequency components that may sound as

though a metallic ringing has been added. This is because the character of an actual piano is being faithfully reproduced, and is

not a malfunction. This ringing is more obtrusive if the ambience eﬀect is applied heavily, so you may be able to minimize it by

decreasing the ambience.

High-pitched ringing is heard

–

If you don’t hear this in headphones:

It is likely that there is some other reason (such as resonances within the unit). Please contact your dealer or a nearby Roland

service center.

If you set the volume to the maximum setting, the sound may be distorted depending on how you perform.

If this occurs, turn down the volume.

p. 44

Alternatively, lower the master gain.

If you don’t hear this in headphones:

Performing at high volumes may cause the speakers or objects near the LX-15 to resonate. Fluorescent lights or glass doors may

also resonate sympathetically. In particular, this is more likely to occur for lower notes and higher volumes. You can take the

following measures to minimize resonances.

Low notes sound wrong, or are

buzzy

•

Locate the speakers 10–15 cm (4–6 inch) away from walls or other surfaces.

Keep the volume down.

–

Move away from the objects that are resonating.

If you hear this in headphones:

It is likely that there is some other reason. Please contact your dealer or a nearby Roland service center.

Could a part be muted?

p. 26

If the button indicator is out, the music on that part is not heard. Press the part button so the indicator is illuminated.

Can’t record audio

Thanks to its multiple number of speakers, each of which can be used to play a diﬀerent portion of the overall sound, the LX-15 is

capable of producing piano sounds that possess great depth and seem to have three-dimensional presence.

Such eﬀects are produced when you play something on the keyboard, or when you play back a song that's been recorded as an

SMF. However, when you make an audio recording, the song will consist of two channels (stereo), and such eﬀects cannot be

reproduced.

Your recorded performance will disappear if you switch oﬀ the LX-15’s power or select a song.

IMPORTANT NOTES

•

Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this

instrument. Peeling such matter oﬀ the instrument

may damage the exterior ﬁnish.

Power Supply

Additional Precautions

•

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

•

Please be aware that the contents of memory can

be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction,

or the improper operation of the unit. To protect

yourself against the risk of loosing important data,

we recommend that you periodically save a backup

copy of important data you have stored in the unit’s

memory on a USB ﬂash drive

•

Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., ﬂower

vases) on this unit. 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.

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.

Maintenance

•

Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore

the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s

memory, USB ﬂash drives once it has been lost.

Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning

such loss of data.

•

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.

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.

•

Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of

any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration

and/or deformation.

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 and readily accessible.

•

Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.

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.

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.

Maintenance (Polished-ﬁnish pianos)

•

A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit

during normal operation.

•

Since your piano has a polished ﬁnish that is as

delicate as that found on ﬁnely crafted wooden

furniture, it needs careful, periodic care. A few

important suggestions concerning the proper care

of the unit follow. For dusting, using a soft, clean

cloth and/or piano-use feather duster. Be sure to

wipe gently. Even the tiniest grains of sand or grit

can leave scratches on the surface if too much force

is applied while wiping. Do not use any cleaners or

detergents, since they might deteriorate the surface

of the cabinet, and produce cracks.

•

With the factory settings, the LX-15’s power will

automatically be switched oﬀ 30 minutes after you

stop playing or operating the unit. If you don’t want

the power to turn oﬀ automatically, change the

“Auto Oﬀ”setting to “Oﬀ”as described on “Making

the Power Automatically Turn Oﬀ After a Time (Auto

Oﬀ)”(p. 40).

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.

•

The sound of keys being struck and vibrations

produced by playing an instrument can be

transmitted through a ﬂoor or wall to an unexpected

extent. In particular, when using headphones, please

take care not to cause annoyance to others nearby.

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.

If the cabinet’s surface loses its luster, wipe it

thoroughly with a soft cloth dampened with a little

of the polishing liquid. Do not use any cleaners or

detergents, since they might deteriorate the surface

of the cabinet, and produce cracks. Do not use

dusting cloths that contain chemicals.

When you need to transport the unit, pack it in

shock-absorbent material. Transporting the unit

without doing so can cause it to become scratched

or damaged, and could lead to malfunction.

•

This device may interfere with radio and television

reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of

such receivers.

•

Do not apply undue force to the music stand while

it is in use.

•

About piano polishing liquid

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.

•

Use polishing liquid as directed by the instructions

for the product.

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 information on cable speciﬁcations, contact

the manufacturer of the cable.

•

Use only polishing liquid that is intended for use on

polished-ﬁnish pianos. Using any other polishing

liquid may cause scratches, deformation, or

discoloration. To purchase polishing liquid, contact

your nearby musical instrument dealer.

•

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.

•

Use the polishing liquid only on the polished

surfaces of the cabinet. Always wipe the surface

with the grain using straight, even strokes. Do

not repeatedly wipe the same places using too

much pressure, since that might result in the loss

of luster.

Be sure to keep the polishing liquid out of the

reach of small children. If the polishing liquid is

accidentally swallowed, ﬁrst get them to vomit,

then take them to a doctor.

•

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. 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.

•

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.

Repairs and Data

•

Please be aware that all data contained in the

unit’s memory may be lost when the unit is sent for

repairs. Important data should always be backed up

USB ﬂash drives, or written down on paper (when

possible). During repairs, due care is taken to avoid

the loss of data. However, in certain cases (such

as when circuitry related to memory itself is out

of order), we regret that it may not be possible to

restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability

concerning such loss of data.

•

Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to

remain on this 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.

About the Ivory Feel Keyboard

Features of an ivory feel keyboard

Traditional piano keys are made from the best materials-ivory (for white keys) and ebony (for black keys). The Ivory Feel keyboard uses the latest

in technology to reproduce the touch and feel of these materials.

An Ivory Feel keyboard oﬀers the following features.

• We’re sure you’ll develop a fondness for the distinctive texture of these keys, which feels better the more you play them.

• Surfaces incorporate stripes of moisture-absorbing material for improved touch and playability.

• The keys feature subtle gloss and understated coloring, enhancing the look and elegance.

• The white keys are ﬁnished with a slight yellowish tinge for the look of real ivory.

Handling

• Do not write on the keyboard with any pen or other implement, and do not stamp or place any marking on the instrument. Ink will seep

into the surface lines and become unremovable.

• Do not aﬃx stickers on the keyboard. You may be unable to remove stickers that use strong adhesives, and the adhesive may cause

discoloration.

Care and maintenance

Please note the following points. Failure to do so may result in scratches on the surface ﬁnish, damaged gloss, or other discoloration or

deformation.

• To remove dirt, use a soft cloth.

Using a moistened and tightly wrung-out cloth, gently wipe oﬀ any dirt.

Do not rub the surface vigorously.

• To remove stubborn dirt, use a commercially available keyboard cleaner that does not contain abrasives.

Start by wiping lightly. If the dirt does not come oﬀ, wipe using gradually increasing amounts of pressure while taking care not to scratch

the keys.

• Do not use benzene, paint thinner, or alcohol on the instrument.

Assembling

them whenever you need.

* To move the piano, lift it carefully—all the while keeping it level.

* Be very careful, when you assemble and move the piano, to make sure that you do not drop it on your hands or feet.

* Make sure to enlist the help of at least one other person when assembling this unit and moving it to a diﬀerent location.

* Make sure to keep screws and any other small parts in a safe location that is out of the reach of small children, so such small parts won’t accidentally get swallowed.

* The screwdriver needed to perform the assembly is not supplied. You’ll need to have ready a Phillips screwdriver that matches the size of the screws.

* All screws should be tightened provisionally ﬁrst, then tightened later. To tighten a screw provisionally, screw it in until about half of its length is no longer visible. Do not use an

electric screwdriver when tightly securing the screws. Otherwise, you risk stripping the threads.

* After ﬁrmly tightening all the screws, place the unit at a location that is level and sure to remain stable. The unit must never be placed on top of deep-pile carpet. Otherwise, you risk

causing damage to the pedals due to instability and unnecessary movement.

* The piano unit and the surface of the stand are very delicate; handle with care to avoid scratching them.

* Do not place the piano unit directly on the ﬂoor. Doing so will damage the bottom panel case and the connectors and holders on the bottom of the piano.
