Maintenance  
401b  
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.  
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.  
308 Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the POWER  
402 Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to  
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.  
avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.  
403  
• 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.  
Repairs and Data  
452 Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s memory may  
Placement  
351 Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment  
be lost when the unit is sent for repairs. Important data should  
always be backed up on a floppy disk, 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.  
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  
Additional Precautions  
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.  
551 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 floppy  
disk.  
353 Observe the following when using the unit’s floppy disk drive.  
For further details, refer to “Before Using Floppy Disks” (p. 40).  
• Do not place the unit near devices that produce a strong  
magnetic field (e.g., loudspeakers).  
• Install the unit on a solid, level surface.  
• Do not move the unit or subject it to vibration while the drive  
is operating.  
552 Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of  
data that was stored on a floppy disk once it has been lost.  
Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss of  
data.  
553 Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons,

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices  
sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and  
connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.  
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.  
554 Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.  
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 cable’s internal elements.  
355b  
When moved from one location to another where the temper-

ature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (conden-  
sation) 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.  
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).  
356 Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on the  
559b  
unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or  
otherwise harmfully affect the finish.  
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.

560 Do not apply undue force to the music rest while it is in use.  
Handling Floppy Disks  
562 Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some  
651 Floppy disks contain a plastic disk with a thin coating of  
other make of connection cable, please note the following precau-  
tions.  
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: 0 to 50° C (50 to 122° F).  
• 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.  
565  
• 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.  
• Do not expose floppy disks to strong magnetic fields, such as  
those generated by loudspeakers.  
652 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.  
Rear side of the disk  
983Howling could be produced depending on the location of micro-  
phones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by:

Before Using Floppy Disks  
653 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.  
Handling the Floppy Disk Drive  
602 Install the unit on a solid, level surface in an area free from  
654 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.  
vibration.  
603 Avoid using the unit immediately after it has been moved to a  
location with a level of humidity that is greatly different than its  
former location. Rapid changes in the environment can cause  
condensation to form inside the drive, which will adversely affect  
the operation of the drive and/or damage floppy disks. When the  
unit has been moved, allow it to become accustomed to the new  
environment (allow a few hours) before operating it.  
655 Disks containing performance data for this unit should always be  
locked (have their write protect tab slid to the “Protect” position)  
before you insert them into the drive on some other unit (except  
the PR-300, or a product in the HP-G, HPi, MT, KR, or Atelier  
families), or into a computer’s drive. Otherwise (if the write  
protect tab remains in the “Write” position), when you perform  
any disk operations using the other device’s disk drive (such as  
checking the contents of the disk, or loading data), you risk  
rendering the disk unreadable by this unit’s disk drive.  
604 To insert a disk, push it gently but firmly into the drive—it will  
click into place. To remove a disk, press the EJECT button firmly.  
Do not use excessive force to remove a disk which is lodged in  
the drive.  
605a  
Never attempt to remove a floppy disk from the drive while the  
drive is operating (the indicator is lit); damage could result to  
both the disk and the drive.  
Handling CD-ROMs  
801 Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside (encoded  
605b  
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.  
The indicator light for the disk drive lights up at full brightness  
when reading or writing data, and lights up at half brightness at  
other times. Don’t try to eject the disk while reading or writing is  
in progress (that is, when the indicator light is lit up at full  
brightness). Attempting to do so may damage the magnetic  
surface of the disk, rendering it unusable.

About the Pedals  
Disabling Functions Other  
Than Piano Performance  
(Panel Lock)  
The pedals have the following functions, and are used mainly for  
piano performance.  
fig.pedal-e  
The “Panel Lock” function locks the HPi-7 in a state where only piano  
performance can be used, and all buttons will be disabled. This  
prevents the settings from being inadvertently modified even if  
children press the buttons accidentally.  
*
In the Panel Lock state, only the grand piano sound can be  
played. Also, nothing will be displayed in the screen.  
Soft Pedal  
Damper Pedal

Damper pedal (right pedal)  
While this pedal is pressed, notes will be sustained even after you take  
On] switch to turn on the power.  
Continue holding down the button for six or seven seconds.  
Adjust the volume. When you play the keyboard, the grand piano  
sound will be heard.  
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.  
To defeat the Panel Lock function, turn the volume down to the  
minimum, and turn on the power once again.  
The HPi-7 simulates this sympathetic resonance.  
You can adjust the amount of sympathetic resonance that occurs  
when you press the damper pedal. Refer to “Adjusting the depth of  
the effects (Effect)” (p. 55).

The HPi-7 is set at the factory so that it automatically starts playback

will have a softer tone.  
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. 15) and “Changing the

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 floppy disk or internal memory. It may take dozens to  
read 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.  
If you display the notation or change the displayed part during song playback, the song may  
sometimes play back from the beginning.

Adding a Count to Assist Your Timing  
“Count-in” means to sound a count before song playback begins.  
“Countdown” means to sound a count after the end of the song introduction (before you begin playing  
the keyboard).  
If you will be playing along with a song, sounding a count will make it easier to match the timing of

Playing Along With A Song  
Changing the Key of the Keyboard or Song Playback  
(Transpose)  
By using the “Transpose” function, you can transpose your performance without changing the notes  
you play. For example, if a song is in a difficult key with numerous sharps ( ) or flats ( ), you can use  
this function to play it in an easier key.  
You can also use this function to play back a song in a different key.  
When accompanying a vocalist, you can easily transpose the key to a range that is comfortable for the  
singer, while still playing the notes as written (i.e., with the same fingering positions).

If you want to re-record the accompaniment of the Pianist function, select the [2/Accomp] track or the [R/Rhythm]  
track, and re-record.  
Multitrack recording on five tracks  
Multitrack recording is a method by which you can record additional tracks while listening to the  
previously recorded tracks.  
The HPi-7 provides five tracks, so you can record different sounds on each track to create an ensemble  
song.  
You can also record on 16 tracks (p. 58).

Saving Your Performance  
The performance data you record on the HPi-7 will be lost when you select another song or turn off  
the power of the HPi-7. If you want to keep important performance data, you must save it to floppy  
disks or Favorites.  
If you will be using a disk drive for the first time, please be sure to read “Before Using Floppy Disks” (p. 6).  
Using Floppy Disks

Press the eject button.  
The floppy disk will protrude from the disk drive. Grasp the edge of the floppy disk and gently pull it  
out.

Don’t try to eject the disk while reading or writing is in progress. Attempting to do so may damage the magnetic  
surface of the disk, rendering it unusable. (The indicator light for the disk drive lights up at full brightness when  
reading or writing data. Ordinally, the indicator will be less brightly lit, or be extinguished.)  
Formatting a floppy disk  
A newly purchased floppy disk, or a floppy disk that has been used by another device cannot be used  
as is. Such floppy disks must be “formatted” for use with the HPi-7.

The time required for saving will range from several seconds to half a minute or more.  
Never remove the floppy disk from the disk drive until saving is complete.  
Some notes on saving a song  
*
Due to certain types of handling, the data on a floppy disk can be damaged and become  
unplayable. We recommend that important song data be saved on two floppy disks.  
When a song is played back on some other devices, notes may drop out or may be played  
differently.  
When you are finished saving, set the protect tab of the floppy disk to the “protect” position (p.  
42). This will prevent the song from being accidentally erased.  
Deleting Saved Songs

same Part or to a measure in another Part. This is handy when  
you’re composing a song that repeats a similar phrase.

Correcting Notes One by One (Note  
Edit)  
Modifying the Tone Changes in a Song  
(PC Edit)  
You can make corrections in a recorded performance one note at  
a time. This process of making changes in individual notes is  
called “note editing.”  
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 editing.”  
• You can make these corrections by using note editing:  
• Deleting misplayed notes  
• Changing the scale of a single note  
• Changing the force used in playing a single key  
(velocity)  
It is not possible to insert a program change into a measure or  
beat that does not contain a program change.  
• Change the fingering.

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.”

Master Tune  
In situations such as when playing in ensemble with other  
instruments, you can adjust the HPi-7’s reference pitch to that of  
another instrument. Middle A is used as the reference pitch for  
tuning instruments.  
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 “sympathetic resonance.”

The process of adjusting the reference pitch to match another  
instrument is called “Tuning.”

Stretch Tuning  
Changing How Rapidly Sounds Are Expressed  
According to the Force Used to Play the Keys  
(Hammer Response)  
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.”  
You can adjust the timing with which sounds are produced  
according to the force used to play the keys.  
Setting  
Description  
This tuning curve expands the low range and high  
range. It is suitable for piano solos. This setting is  
selected when the power is turned on.  
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.

This is the standard tuning curve. It is suitable  
when playing in an ensemble with other  
instruments.

Temperament  
Changing the function of the pedals  
(Pedal)  
You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic  
temperaments (tuning methods).  
You can change the function of the left pedal and center pedal.  
Refer to p. 54 for the procedure.  
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  
Soft  
(only left  
pedal)  
Description  
When you hold down the pedal and play the  
keyboard, the sound will have a softer tone.  
Sostenuto  
(only center  
pedal)  
Only the notes that were played while the pedal  
was held down will be sustained.  
Setting  
Description  
This temperament divides the octave into 12  
equal parts. All intervals will be slightly out  
of tune by the same amount.  
The tempo of the song, accompaniment, or  
metronome will be set by the interval at which  
you press the pedal. When the pedal to which  
this function is assigned is pressed several times  
at the desired rate, the tempo will be set  
accordingly.  
Equal  
Tap Tempo  
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 Major  
When using Split performance, the same effect  
as the damper pedal will be applied to the left-  
hand keyboard area.  
Lower  
Damper  
Just intonation differs between major and  
minor keys. The same results as major can be  
obtained in a minor key.  
Just Minor  
Arabic  
Pressing the pedal during playback of a song  
stops the playback. When the pedal is released,  
playback resumes from the beginning of the  
measure that was playing when the pedal was  
pressed. When the pedal is pressed in rapid  
succession, the playback will resume backs up  
the same number of measures as the number of  
times the pedal is pressed.  
This tuning is suitable for the music of  
Arabia.  
Replay  
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).  
Kirnberger  
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.

Connecting External Devices  
Connections with MIDI Devices  
Connecting Audio Devices  
By connecting external MIDI devices and exchanging performance  
data, a device can control the performance of another device. For  
example, you can play sounds from another device, or select sounds  
remotely.  
You can connect audio devices to play the sound of the HPi-7  
through the speakers of your audio system, or to record your  
performance on a tape recorder or other recording device.  
Use phone plug audio cables (sold separately) to make connections.  
What is MIDI?  
“MIDI” stands for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface,” and is a  
universal standard created to allow for the exchange of performance  
data among electronic musical instruments and computers.  
*
926aWhen connection cables with resistors are used, the volume  
level of equipment connected to the input jacks may be low. If  
this happens, use connection cables that do not contain  
resistors, such as those from the Roland PCS series.  
The HPi-7 provides MIDI connectors, which allow performance data  
to be exchanged with an external device. When these connectors are  
used to connect the HPi-7 to external devices, an even wider range of

Program Change setting  
Program changes are a type of message that tell a device to “switch  
to sound number `x’.” A device that receives this message will select  
the sound of the corresponding number.  
When you use this setting to specify a program change (program  
number), that program number will be transmitted to a MIDI device  
connected to the HPi-7. A MIDI device that receives the program  
number will switch to the sound corresponding to that program  
number.  
Normally, program changes select from 128 different sounds.  
However, some MIDI devices have more than 128 sounds. For such  
devices, Bank Select messages are combined with Program Change  
messages to select sounds. Bank Select consists of two messages:  
MSB (controller number 0; value: 0-127), and LSB (controller number  
32; value: 0-127).

Some MIDI devices cannot use bank select messages.  
Alternatively, some devices may use bank select messages, but

Music Files That the HPi-7 Can Use  
What Are Music Files?  
About the HPi-7 Sound  
Music Files contain information describing the details of a  
Generator  
musical performance, such as “the C3 key on a keyboard was  
The HPi-7 come equipped with GM 2/GS sound generators.  
pressed for this amount of time, using this amount of force.”  
By inserting the floppy disk into the disk drive on the HP, the  
General MIDI  
performance information is sent from the floppy disk to the  
The General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks to  
piano, and played faithfully by the piano. This is different  
provide a way to go beyond the limitations of proprietary designs,  
than a CD, since the music file does not contain a recording  
and standardize the MIDI capabilities of sound generating devices.  
of the sound itself. This makes it possible to erase certain  
Sound generating devices and music files that meets the General  
parts, or to change instruments, tempos and keys freely,  
MIDI standard bears the General MIDI logo. Music files bearing the  
allowing you to use it in many different ways.  
General MIDI logo can be played back using any General MIDI  
sound generating unit to produce essentially the same musical  
performance.  
Regarding Copyright  
Use of the song data supplied with the Data Disk attached to  
this product 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.  
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.  
The HPi-7 allows you to use  
the following music files  
Floppy disks saved on a Roland MT Series, or Roland Piano  
Digital HP-G/R/i and KR Series instrument  
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.  
Roland Digital Piano Compatible Music Files  
Roland’s original music file is made specifically for practicing the  
piano. Some follow an instructional curriculum, allowing for a  
complete range of lessons, such as “practicing each hand  
separately” or “listening to only the accompaniment.”  
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.  
SMF Music Files (720KB/1.44MB format)  
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.  
*
If you wish to purchase SMF Music Files, please consult the  
retailer where you purchased your HPi-7.  
SMF with 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.  
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.

In general, a great many of the VGA displays and multiscan  
displays that are available on the market are compatible  
with this instrument. However, before you connect any  
display, make sure it meets the following specifications:  
Switch on the connected display.  
For more on handling the external display, refer to your display’s

as shown in the figure.  
Areas for placing the display  
Confirm that the display to be used is compatible with the  
frequencies mentioned above. Using a display that is not  
compatible with the above frequencies may result in  
incorrect image output when images move, and in certain  
cases may even damage the display.
