In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on p. 4, please read and observe the following:  
• Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower vases)  
Power Supply  
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.  
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being  
used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an  
inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave  
oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending  
on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power  
supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may  
Maintenance  
• 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.  
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind,  
to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.  
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.  
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours  
of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for  
concern.  
• 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.  
Additional Precautions  
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of  
data that was stored on a USB storage device once it has been  
lost. Roland Europe assumes no liability concerning such loss  
of data.  
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.  
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s  
buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks  
and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.  
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the  
connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will  
avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal  
elements.  
• 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).  
• 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.  
• This device may interfere with radio and television reception.  
Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.  
• 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.  
• 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.  
• Do not apply undue force to the music stand while it is in use.  
• Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-7 or EV-5; sold  
separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you  
risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.  
• When moved from one location to another where the temper-  
ature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets  
(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or  
malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this  
condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it  
to stand for several hours, until the condensation has  
completely evaporated.  
• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on  
the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or  
otherwise harmfully affect the finish.  
• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard. This  
can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing to  
produce sound.  
• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.  
Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the  
exterior finish.  
Using USB Memory  
• When connecting USB memory, firmly insert it all the way  
into the USB memory port.  
• Do not touch the pins of the USB memory port, or allow them  
to become dirty.  
• USB memory is made using high-precision electronic compo-  
nents, 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°C)  
• Do not allow USB memory to become wet.  
• Do not disassemble or modify USB memory.  
• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on  
which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar  
the surface. You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the  
rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so,  
please make sure that the unit will not slip or move acciden-  
tally.  
• When connecting USB memory, position it horizontally with  
the C-200’s USB Memory port and insert it without using  
excessive force. The USB memory connector may be damaged  
if you use excessive force when inserting USB memory.

Introduction  
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of a Roland Classic Organ.  
The Roland C-200 Classic Organs is a complete organ with 2-manual simu-  
lation and numerous features in a compact cabinet.  
Two-manual simulation  
The C-200’s 76-note keyboard can be split (divided) into two  
halves to simulate an instrument equipped with manual I and  
manual II.  
In order to take full advantage of your C-200 and enjoy trouble-free opera-  
tion, please read this owner’s manual carefully.  
Coupler II/I functionality  
The C-200’s coupler function allows you to play the Manual I  
sound, along with the Manual II sound on the entire keyboard.  
About this owner’s manual  
Five temperaments to support historically correct  
tunings  
In addition to equal temperament, you can choose from Werck-  
meister, Kirnberger, Vallotti, and Meantone, giving you five  
temperaments that can be easily selected by pressing a single  
button.  
Please read the section “Getting Ready to Play” on p. 15 and make  
the correct preparations for turning on the power.  
This manual explains what you need to know to take full advantage  
of the C-200, divided into a Basic Operation section and an  
Advanced Operation section.  
There’s also a Transpose function, which makes it easy to trans-  
pose the pitch for additional ways to vary your performance.  
Conventions used in this manual  
No maintenance and easy pitch changes  
Not only will you never need to replace the plectrums or  
strings, you’ll also never need to tune this instrument.  
Moreover, the C-200 is not affected by vibration or changes in  
humidity or temperature. You’ll always be performing with  
precisely accurate pitches guaranteed by digital technology.  
It’s also easy to adjust the tuning to match other instruments.  
You can furthermore use a single button to easily switch to  
Baroque pitch (A= 415Hz), Versailles pitch (A= 392 Hz), Vene-  
tian pitch (A= 465Hz) or the default tuning (A= 440Hz).  
In order to present information as concisely as possible, this manual  
uses the following conventions.  
Text enclosed in square brackets [ ] indicates the name of a  
button (or knob); e.g., “the [8’I] piston.”  
Text preceded by a symbol such as  
or an asterisk (*)  
refers to warnings. Please be sure to read these.  
Text preceded by a symbol such as  
additional information.

Pages to which you can refer to for further information are  
indicated like this: (p. **)  
Reverb that enhances the rich acoustics of  
chamber music  
The built-in digital reverb lets you choose the reverberation of a  
variety of environments, ranging from a small room to a large  
hall. You can perform using acoustics that are appropriate for  
the space you are in.  
Main features  
Reproduces the beautiful sound of the classic  
organ, grand piano, harpsichord, fortepiano,  
celesta and orchestral sounds  
Adjust the volume and balance as appropriate for  
your situation  
Whether you’re at home, in a small hall, or in a large hall, you  
can adjust the volume as appropriate for your situation or the  
ensemble with whom you’re performing. You can also use  
headphones, so you’ll feel free to practice at any time.  
The [Balance] knob allows you to set the balance between man-  
ual II and manual I + pedal.  
Grand, glorious sound is the hallmark of the classic organ. Pro-  
viding a rich and spacious ensemble sound complemented by  
crystal-clear definition, the C-200 will take you to new musical  
heights, while sustaining the tradition of quality, craftsmanship  
and innovation.  
An authentic grand piano sound is included for solo and  
ensemble performances. The sound-producing mechanism of  
the harpsichord, the sound of the key release, and the resonance  
of the sounding board have been carefully analyzed, and digital  
technology is used to reproduce faithfully even the sound of the  
plectrum contacting the string when a key is released. You’ll be  
able to enjoy beautiful and realistic harpsichord sound.  
The fortepiano, the precursor of the piano as we know it today,  
produces its sounds via its strings that are struck by hammers  
operated by a keyboard. The fortepiano is built entirely of  
wood, the strings are struck by hammers covered in hide, pro-  
ducing a metallic and brilliant sound. It enabled artists to pave  
new ways and therefore explore new possibilities of expression.  
There is also a Celesta sound, which is similar to a glockenspiel,  
but softer and rounder. In addition, there are 12 orchestral  
sounds that can be used either in isolation or together with the  
organ section for a richer sound.  
Compact form that encompasses both tradition  
and functionality  
While reflecting the historical tradition of the classic organ, the  
C-200 provides the advantage of a light weight and compact  
form.  
Five different classical sections in one instrument  
The C-200 comes with five sections for various types of classical  
music: “Organ” (PEDAL, MANUAL I, MANUAL II), “Harpsi-  
chord”, “Fortepiano”, “Piano” and “Celesta”.  
Optional pedal boards  
Optional pedal boards are available for musicians in search of  
full organ functionality.

Getting Ready to Play  
Placing the C-200 on a stand  
If you place the C-200 on a stand, you must use the CKS-C200 or the KS-12 (sold separately).  
• When placing the C-200 on the stand, be careful not to pinch your fingers between the instrument and the stand.  
• When lifting the C-200 onto the stand, make sure to enlist the help of at least one other person.  
• Using the C-200 with any other stand may produce an unstable situation, possibly causing the instrument to fall or overturn,  
and resulting in injury or damage.  
• For details on how to assemble the stand, refer to the owner’s manual that accompanied the stand.  
Placing on the CKS-C200 stand  
1. Align the screws on the bottom of the C-200 (one each at left and right) with the metal brackets on the side boards of  
CKS-C200 stand, and while keeping the front of the instrument slightly raised, pull it toward yourself to engage the  
screws in the metal brackets.

Ground Terminal  
Depending on the circumstances of a particular  
setup, you may experience a discomforting  
sensation, or perceive that the surface feels gritty to  
the touch when you touch this device, microphones  
connected to it, or the metal portions of other  
objects, such as guitars. This is due to an  
Ground terminal  
infinitesimal electrical charge, which is absolutely  
harmless. However, if you are concerned about this,  
connect the ground terminal (see figure) with an  
external ground. When the unit is grounded, a  
slight hum may occur, depending on the particulars  
of your installation. If you are unsure of the  
connection method, contact the nearest Roland  
Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.  
Unsuitable places for connection  
• Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)  
• Gas pipes (may result in fire or explosion)  
• Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be dangerous in the event of lightning)

Choosing a sound  
The C-200 provides five separate sound divisions: Organ and orchestra (PEDAL, MANUAL I, MANUAL II), Harpsichord,  
Fortepiano, Piano and Celesta. Only one of the following sections can be used at any one time: Organ or Harpsichord or  
Fortepiano or Piano or Celesta.

The C-200 comes with 28 organ and 8 orches-  
tabs (PRINCIPAL~USER ORCH). There are 4  
organ voices per tilt tab, one of which can be  
assigned at a time (see p. 32). The USER  
ORCH tilt tab not only allows you to select  
one of 4 organ voices, but also one of 8 orchestral sounds.

Adding the MANUAL II division  
The C-200’s MANUAL II division can be added to the MANUAL I division. (You can also play it via separate keys, see  
below.) The MANUAL II division provides 20 organ and 8 orchestral sounds that can be selected using the 5 tilt tabs (STILL  
GEDACKT~USER ORCH). The USER ORCH tilt tab not only allows you to select one of 4 organ voices, but also one of 8  
orchestral sounds. When active, the MANUAL II division performs the function of the Swell manual on a church organ. The  
MANUAL I division, for its part, replaces the Great section.  
Let us first look at how to couple those two sections, which means that they are played together.  
1. Press the lower part of the [II/I] tilt tab (the  
“coupler”) in the MANUAL I division to  
switch it on.  
Its indicator lights to signal that you can now  
add a second division to the MANUAL I reg-  
istration. This simulates the coupling of two  
manuals on a church organ.  
When you switch on the C-200, this II/I coupler is automatically activated.  
2. Press the lower part of the MANUAL II tilt  
tab you wish to use.  
If the indicator of a tab lights, the correspond-  
ing register is audible. You can activate as  
many registers as you like. It is also possible  
to switch off all MANUAL I registers (except  
[II/I]) and only use one or several MANUAL  
II registers to simulate a church organ’s Swell  
manual.  
3. To switch off the selected sounds, press the upper part of all tilt tabs that are lit.  
Playing the MANUAL I and II divisions with separate hands  
If you prefer, you can assign the MANUAL I  
division to the left half of the keyboard and the  
MANUAL II division to the right half.

Using the Tremulant to add expression  
A “tremulant” creates a change in pitch  
(vibrato), amplitude (volume) and timbre (tone  
quality). The use of the tremulant adds warmth  
and expressiveness to solo or small ensemble  
combinations. It is not common to use  
tremulants in larger classical ensembles. In some  
romantic ensembles, tremulants are used  
judiciously. In some gospel and evangelical  
musical traditions, tremulants with a wider and  
deeper excursion are frequently used.  
The C-200 provides a tremulant function for the MANUAL II division. It only affects the tilt tabs of that division (and requires  
that you switch on at least one tilt tab).  
The TREMULANT status can be saved to one of the memories.  
dynamic MIDI pedal unit (see p. 40). (Roland recommends connecting the pedal keyboard to the C-200’s PK IN socket.)  
Here again, there are 4 organ voices for each tab. And again, one of those voices can be assigned to the tilt tab in question (see  
p. 32). The USER ORCH tilt tab not only allows you to select one of 4 organ voices, but also one of 8 orchestral sounds.  
If you only use the keyboard (without a pedal  
unit), the PEDAL division is monophonic and  
doubles the lowest note you play using the  
MANUAL I and/or MANUAL II stops.  
Range of the Manual I and/or II divisions  
Range of the monophonic bass part  
1. Press the lower part of the PEDAL tilt tabs  
you wish to use.  
Now you can play the selected bass sound.  
Inside the “BASS” range, the bass sound is  
added to the sounds selected for MANUAL I  
and MANUAL II (if the [Coupler II/I] tilt tab  
lights). It sounds the lowest note you play with your left hand (it is monophonic).  
2. To switch off the selected PEDAL sound, press the upper part of the tilt tab that lights.  
The tilt tab goes dark.  
By connecting an optional PK-5A, PK-7A or PK-25A MIDI pedal board to the C-200’s PK IN connector, you can play the bass organ part in  
polyphonic mode. In that case, the left half of the C-200’s keyboard no longer triggers the PEDAL part.

Playing <Basic Operation>  
Selecting a classical tuning (Pitch)  
If you’re playing the C-200 together with other instruments in an ensemble, you can adjust the pitch of the C-200 to match the  
other instruments if necessary.  
• You can adjust the C-200’s reference pitch by choosing one of four fixed settings: 465Hz (Venetian pitch), 440Hz (default),  
415Hz (Baroque pitch), or 392Hz (Versailles pitch).  
• When you turn on the power, the pitch is set to 440Hz (the “440Hz” indicator lights).  
Press the [Pitch] button repeatedly until the  
indicator of the desired pitch lights.  
Selecting a temperament  
The C-200 allows you to easily change the temperament. By using historical temperaments to play music that is appropriate for  
the characteristics of each temperament, you can more strongly bring out the beauty or tension inherent in a composition. In  
particular, when playing a composition that uses a transposable temperament and includes transpositions, the sonority of the  
chords will change when a transposition occurs, creating subtle changes in the coloration of the piece.  
“Werckmeister” is a temperament that combines Meantone and Pythagorean scales to enhance the degree of transposability, and  
has been used ever since Bach up to the present. “Kirnberger” was conceived using similar methods, and is used mainly when  
playing the organ works of Bach.  
“Vallotti” is the most recent of the temperaments described here. It is close to equal temperament, but since it is somewhat pure,  
it blends easily with other instruments, and today is often used in ensembles.  
Meantone was popular throughout Europe during the Baroque era, and was used customarily by Baroque musicians such as  
Handel as well as in compositions of the Renaissance period.  
Press the [Temperament] button repeatedly  
until the indicator of the desired tempera-  
ment lights.  
If you proceed past Meantone, you will  
“wrap around” to Equal.  
The [Temperament] button only lights when a  
temperament other than “Equal” is selected.  
“Equal” will be selected every time the power is turned on.

Playing back your recorded song  
To listen to your new (or a previously recorded) song, proceed as follows:  
1. Press the [PLAY/PAUSE] piston (it lights) to start  
playback.  
2. Press the [STOP] piston to stop playback and return to  
the beginning of your song.  
The [PLAY/PAUSE] piston goes dark.  
The recorded song data are transmitted to the C-200’s  
MIDI Out port.  
To temporarily stop playback, press [PLAY/PAUSE]  
again (the piston flashes). Press it again to resume play-  
back from where you halted it.  
Saving your song to an optional USB memory  
At first, the C-200 uses a temporary memory for the data you record. That memory is erased when you redo your recording,  
load another song or when you switch off the C-200. Therefore, you need to save recordings you want to keep and play back at a  
later stage. To this end, the C-200 provides a USB Memory port located on the rear panel. The C-200 allows you to save up to 99  
songs to an optional USB memory.  
See the numbers on the tilt tabs. (The [USER/ORCH]  
(“10”) tilt tab is used to enter the number “0”.)  
1. Insert the optional USB memory into the C-200’s USB  
Memory port.  
Example: To enter “01”, press the [USER/ORCH] and  
[SUBBASS] tilt tabs. The [USER/ORCH] (“10”) and  
[SUBBASS] (“1”) tilt tabs flash sequentially to indicate  
that you have entered the value “01”.  
To enter “39”, press [USER/ORCH] (“3”) and [TRUM-  
PET] (“9”) in that order. The [USER/ORCH] (“3”) and  
[TRUMPET] (“9”) tilt tabs flash sequentially.  
A similar flashing pattern is also used for any other  
number you select here.  
Carefully insert the USB memory all the way into the  
port until it is firmly in place.  
The C-200 uses the number you selected as file name to  
save your song to the optional USB memory.  
2. Hold down the [REC] piston until the [STILL  
GEDACKT 8] (ENTER) tilt tab starts flashing.  
Never remove a USB memory while the C-200’s power is  
on. Doing so may corrupt the C-200’s data or the data on  
the USB memory.  
4. Press the lower part of the [STILL GEDACKT 8]  
(ENTER) tilt tab to save your recording.  
3. Enter a number between “01” and “99” using the  
PEDAL and MANUAL I tilt tabs.  
The C-200 saves the song, and the tilt tabs of the last con-  
figuration you have been using light. The song is saved  
to the “C200/SONG” folder on the USB memory. If that  
folder does not yet exist, it will be created automatically.

You can play back the songs stored on an optional USB memory connected to the C-200. Given the possibility to work with  
external USB memories, you might be tempted to copy Standard MIDI Files to that device (using your computer, for instance)  
and play them back using the C-200.  
The C-200 does not conform to the GS standard or General MIDI format. Songs not specifically prepared with/for the C-200 may  
therefore use the wrong sounds.  
The song you selected is loaded, and the tilt tabs of the
