Power Supply 359 Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument. 301 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 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. 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. 308 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 cords plug should be one that is within easy reach. Placement 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 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 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. 353 Observe the following when using the units 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. 354b 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. 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. 356 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. 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. Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior finish. Maintenance 401b 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. 402 Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation. Repairs and Data 452 Please be aware that all data contained in the units memory may 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. Additional Precautions 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 units memory on a floppy disk. 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 units buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions. 554 Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display. 556 When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itselfnever pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cables internal elements. 557 A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation. 558a To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the units 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). 559b 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. 5 HPi7_e.book 6 562 Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some other make of connection cable, please note the following precau-
tions. 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. Before Using Floppy Disks Handling the Floppy Disk Drive 602 Install the unit on a solid, level surface in an area free from 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. 604 To insert a disk, push it gently but firmly into the driveit 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. 605b 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. Dont 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. 606 Remove any disk from the drive before powering up or down. 607 To prevent damage to the disk drives heads, always try to hold the floppy disk in a level position (not tilted in any direction) while inserting it into the drive. Push it in firmly, but gently. Never use excessive force. 608 To avoid the risk of malfunction and/or damage, insert only floppy disks into the disk drive. Never insert any other type of disk. Avoid getting paper clips, coins, or any other foreign objects inside the drive. Handling Floppy Disks 651 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: 0 to 50 C (50 to 122 F). 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 Write
(can write new data onto disk) Write Protect Tab Protect
(prevents writing to disk) 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. 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. 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 computers drive. Otherwise (if the write protect tab remains in the Write position), when you perform any disk operations using the other devices disk drive (such as checking the contents of the disk, or loading data), you risk rendering the disk unreadable by this units disk drive. Handling CD-ROMs 801 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. 203

Turn the volume to the minimum, and press the [Power On] switch to turn off the power. Hold down the [Function] button, and press the [Power 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. To defeat the Panel Lock function, turn the volume down to the minimum, and turn on the power once again. Cancelling Auto Demo The HPi-7 is set at the factory so that it automatically starts playback of the demo songs whenever the keys and controls have been left untouched for a few minutes.

About the Pedals The pedals have the following functions, and are used mainly for piano performance. fig.pedal-e Soft Pedal Damper Pedal Sostenuto Pedal Damper pedal (right pedal) While this pedal is pressed, notes will be sustained even after you take your fingers off the keys. The depth to which you press the pedal will subtly affect the duration of the sustain. 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-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). 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) When you hold down this pedal and play the keyboard, the sound 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 function of the pedals (Pedal) (p. 56). About the adjuster When you move the HPi-7 or if you feel that the pedals are unstable, adjust the adjuster located below 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. fig.adjust Adjuster 3 4 Press the [

The fingers are numbered as follows: 1: thumb, 2: index finger, 3: middle finger, 4: ring finger, 5: little finger. This item cannot be selected if there is no fingering data.
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. 47).

. 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.

There are some edits that cant be restored. Editing functions that can be undone appear on screen. fig.d-e-undo Mode Mix Insert If you select Cancel, the undo is cancelled, and youre returned to the Song Edit screen. If you select OK, undone the most recent edit. Copying Measures (Copy) You can copy a portion of a performance to a different bar in the same Part or to a measure in another Part. This is handy when youre composing a song that repeats a similar phrase. fig.e-copy Ex. To copy measures 5-7 to measure 8. 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 fig.d-e-copy Convenient Functions Item Content Data can be copied in the following three ways:
Replace If there is a performance recorded at the copy destination, this previous recording is erased, and the copied data is written in its place. If there is a performance recorded at the copy destination, the copied data is layered over the previous recording. If the Tones used for the copy source and copy destination are different, the copy-
destination Tone is used. If there is a performance recorded at the copy destination, the copied portion is inserted without erasing the previous recording. The song is lengthened by the number of inserted measures. To Copy-destination measure number When End is selected, the data is copied to the end of the song. Number of times the data is to be copied Times Correcting Timing Discrepancies
(Quantize) You can correct for timing discrepancies in a recorded performance by automatically aligning the music with the timing you specify. This is called Quantizing. As an example, lets say that the timing of some quarter-notes in a performance is a little off. In this case, you can quantize the performance with quarter-note timing, thus making the timing accurate. fig.e-quantizee Example: Quarter-note resolution 8 9 10 Actual note data Note data after quantization 1 Example: Sixteenth-note resolution Actual note data 1 Note data after quantization fig.d-e-quant 2 2 3 3 4 4 Item From For Src Dst Content Measure number of the first measure of the segment to be copied Number of measures to be copied Copy-source Track button or part number Choosing All copies all Parts. --- appears in the Dst column.

This process of making changes in individual notes is called note 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) Change the fingering. fig.e-note 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 editing. It is not possible to insert a program change into a measure or beat that does not contain a program change. fig.d-e-pc The note-location display uses Measure: Beat: Tick as the format.

Decreases the volume of the keyboard sound Adjusting the Piano Sounds
(Piano Setting) The HPi-7 is capable of reproducing a variety of the acoustic pianos distinctive characteristics. You can also adjust these to suit your own taste and style.
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 16 The lid is opened more as the value is increased. 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 sympathetic resonance. Setting Off, 110 Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect. 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. Setting Off, 110 Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect. Convenient Functions 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 Off, 110 Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect. Adjusting the depth of the effects
(Effect) You can adjust the depth of the reverb (p. 27) and chorus (p. 27). Refer to p. 54 for the procedure. Setting 110 Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect.
This setting is valid when the [Chorus] button or [Reverb] button is turned on to apply an effect to the sound. Holding down the [Reverb] or [Chorus] button, press the [+]
or [-] button to adjust the depth of each effect. Setting the reference pitch and temperament (Tuning) Refer to p. 54 for the procedure. Master Tune In situations such as when playing in ensemble with other instruments, you can adjust the HPi-7s reference pitch to that of another instrument. Middle A is used as the reference pitch for tuning instruments. The process of adjusting the reference pitch to match another instrument is called Tuning. Setting 415.3 Hz440.0 Hz466.2 Hz 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 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. This is the standard tuning curve. It is suitable when playing in an ensemble with other instruments.

Only the notes that were played while the pedal was held down will be sustained. 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. When using Split performance, the same effect as the damper pedal will be applied to the left-
hand keyboard area. 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. Press the pedal or the Pad turns the notation appearing on the display to the preceding page while the performance of a song is stopped. Press the pedal or the Pad turns the notation appearing on the display to the next page while the performance of a song is stopped. Performs the same function as the [Start/Stop]

* German, French, and Spanish are displayed for some functions. Other screens will be displayed in English. Convenient Functions 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 Equal Just Major Just Minor Arabic Kirnberger Pythagorean Meantone Werkmeister Description This temperament divides the octave into 12 equal parts. All intervals will be slightly out of tune by the same amount. 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 intonation differs between major and minor keys. The same results as major can be obtained in a minor key. This tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia. 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). 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. This temperament is a partial compromise of just intonation in order to allow modulation. This temperament is a combination of meantone and Pythagorean temperaments. It allows you to play in all keys. (First method, number three.) Key When playing in a temperament other than equal temperament, you must specify the tonic (the note corresponding to C for a major key, or to A for a minor key) of the key in which you will play. If you have selected equal temperament, it is not necessary to select the tonic. Setting C, C#, D, Eb, E, F, F#, G, Ab, A, Bb, B Mic Echo When you use the mic, you can adds a karaoke-like echo effect to the mic. Refer to p. 54 for the procedure. Setting Off, 110 Increasing the value will increase the amount of effect. 56 HPi7_e.book 57 Selecting Images To Be Shown on the Displays (User Image Display) You can have image data from computers and other devices shown on the onboard display.

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. 77), 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 p. 54 for the procedure. Setting Auto 2/1 Part 3/4 Part Description The part assigned to each track will be determined automatically, depending on the song file. Part 1 will be assigned to the right-hand track, part 2 to the left-hand track, and part 3 to the user track. Part 4 will be assigned to the right-hand track, part 3 to the left-hand track, and part 1 to the user track.
After changing this setting, try selecting the song once again. 57 HPi7_e.book 58 Convenient Functions Recording and Playing Back Performances of Specific Instruments
(16 Track) 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. The HPi-7 lets you record 16 separate parts. 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. fig.16track.e 16-Track Sequencer You can record performances for up to 16 parts, overlaying them part by part, to create a single song. Flute Part Bass Part Piano Part (left hand) Piano Part (right hand) Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 16 16-Track Sequencer and the Track Buttons In addition to the 16-Track Sequencer function, the Track Buttons (p. 16) are another of the units playing/recording functions. In addition to the 16-track sequencer, the HPi-7 also features the track buttons (p. 16). These track buttons group the 16-track sequencers 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

3 4 Each of the 16-track sequencers 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. 27) and Split (p. 28) performances. In addition, when recording performances using the Pianist function, you can select only one part to record. If you want to record multiple parts simultaneously with the Pianist function, you should use the track buttons. Refer to Recording with an accompaniment (the Pianist function) (p. 39). 58 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 data that is available for purchase is included with the track button [2/Bass and Accompaniment], but the correspondence of other parts to the track buttons is the same.

For example, you can play sounds from another device, or select sounds remotely. 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. 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 possibilities becomes available. 984
A separate publication titled MIDI Implementation is also available. It provides complete details concerning the way MIDI has been implemented on this unit. If you should require this publication (such as when you intend to carry out byte-level programming), please contact the nearest Roland Service Center or authorized Roland distributor.

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 ignore the LSB message.

(p. 11) Turn the power off, then back on. The HPi-7 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. 9) 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. 10). Is the volume level of the HPi-7 (p. 10) or connected device turned all the way down?
Are headphones plugged in?
Has a plug remained connected to the Phones jack? (p. 9) When you connect the headphones, the sound is heard only through the headphones. Could the Balance setting be set all the way toward Accomp or Keyboard? (p. 55) Have all devices been switched on? (p. 61) Are the MIDI cables connected correctly?
(p. 61) Does the MIDI channel match the connected instrument? (p. 62) 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. 62). Could the Balance setting be set all the way toward Accomp? (p. 55) Is the [Pianist] buttons indicator lit? (p. 32) If the [Pianist] buttons indicator is lit, there will be no sound from the left-hand section of the keyboard. No sound from the left side is V-LINK switched on? (p. 60) 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. Is the HPi-7 in Dual play? (p. 27) When the HPi-7 is connected to an external sequencer, set it to the Local OFF mode (p. 62). Alternatively, the sequencer could be set so its Soft Thru feature is OFF. The maximum number of notes that the HPi-7 can play simultaneously is 128. Frequent use of the damper pedal during automatic accompaniment or when playing along with a song on floppy disk may result in performance data with too many notes, causing some notes to drop out. 64 Case Cant select a tone The tuning or pitch of the keyboard or song is off.

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 memory, you may find that operations other than playback (such as rewind or fast forward) become unavailable. 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 youre using to determine the format type. Has one of the track buttons for recording been selected? (p. 38) 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. 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. 39). HPi7_e.book 65 Case Cause/Remedy The Tone has changed. The recorded performance has disappeared. Lyrics are not indicated properly in the display. Notation is not indicated properly in the display. Song becomes unstable Depressing a pedal has no effect, or the pedal effect doesnt stop. The pedal rattles Reverberation still audible even with Reverb turned off In the upper range, the sound changes abruptly beyond a certain key 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. Any performance that has been recorded is deleted when the power to the HPi-7 is turned off or a song is selected. A performance cannot be restored once its been deleted. 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. 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. 47). 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. 15). In the notation screen, some lyrics or notes could extend beyond the edges of the screen, and not be displayed. In certain cases, such as when playing songs on disks, the song may lag when excessive amounts of performance data are used. Is the pedal connected correctly?
Make sure the pedal cord extending from the stand is securely connected to the pedal jack on the rear of the unit (p. 9). Has a different function been assigned to the pedal?
See Changing the function of the pedals
(Pedal) (p. 56). Adjust the adjuster underneath the pedal so that the pedal presses firmly against the floor surface (p. 11). Since the HPi-7s piano sounds faithfully reproduce the sense of spaciousness and reverberation of an actual acoustic pianos sound, a certain amount of reverberation is still perceptible, even with the reverb effect deactivated. 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-7, the range that is unaffected by the damper pedal will change depending on the Key Transpose setting. Trouble Shooting Case Cause/Remedy When listening through headphones:
A High-pitched whine is produced The bass range sounds odd, or there is a vibrating resonance The volume level of the instrument connected to Input jacks is too low. Titles of songs on floppy disk not being displayed 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-7) would be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center. When listening through speakers:
Playing at loud volumes may cause instruments near the HPi-7 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 1015 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 (such as resonance produced by the HPi-7) would be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center. Could you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor. 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?
Have any double-byte characters (such as Japanese Hiragana or Kanji characters) been used in the file name? This instrument does not display double-byte characters. For characters that can be used with this instrument, refer to p. 43. Is "MID" used as the extension? The song cannot be treated as song data if a different extension is used. 65 HPi7_e.book 66 If this Message Appears on Screen Indication Meaning Indication Meaning Be sure youre using Roland SMF Music Files or other music files compatible with Roland digital pianos (p. 77).

Music Files contain information describing the details of a musical performance, such as the C3 key on a keyboard was pressed for this amount of time, using this amount of force. By inserting the floppy disk into the disk drive on the HP, the performance information is sent from the floppy disk to the piano, and played faithfully by the piano. This is different than a CD, since the music file does not contain a recording of the sound itself. This makes it possible to erase certain parts, or to change instruments, tempos and keys freely, allowing you to use it in many different ways. 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. 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 Roland Digital Piano Compatible Music Files Rolands 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. 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. About the HPi-7 Sound Generator The HPi-7 come equipped with GM 2/GS sound generators. General MIDI 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 Rolands 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, Rolands 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. 77 MIDI Implementation Chart Date : April 1, 2004 Version : 1.00 Transmitted Recognized Remarks HPi7_e.book 78 MIDI Implementation Chart DIGITAL PIANO Model HPi-7 Basic Channel Mode Note Number :
