Baldwin Pianovelle RP1 User manual

1
Introduction
Thanks for purchasing a Baldwin Pianovelle, a high quality product that employs the most advanced technology available to
produce real piano sounds.
Although Pianovelle is very easy to use, you are recommended to consult this manual whenever you are not sure what to do. Of
utmost importance is, of course, how you treat your Pianovelle. Do not forget, therefore, to read the General Safety Instructions
below to guarantee a long and trouble free use of your instrument.
General safety instructions
Power source
• Be sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage specified on the name plate before connecting to the mains.
• DC power cannot be used to power this instrument.
Handling the power cord
• Never touch the power cord or its plug with wet hands.
• Never pull on the cord to remove it from the wall socket, always pull the plug.
• Never forcibly bend the power cord.
• If the power cord is scarred, cut or broken, or has a bad contact, it will be a potential fire hazard or source of serious
electric shock. NEVER use a damaged power cord; have it replaced by a qualified technician.
If water gets into the instrument
• Remove the power cord from the wall socket at once, and contact the store where the unit was purchased.
• The top surface of your instrument should never be used as a shelf for flower vases and other containers which hold
liquids.
Metal items etc. inside the unit
• Do not permit metal items or other materials to fall inside the unit.
Metal items may result in electric shock or damage.
• Be especially careful with regards to this point when children are near the unit. They should be warned never to try to put
anything inside, and never to slide a hand into the unit while you or other persons are playing.
• If articles do fall inside, remove the power cord from the wall socket at once and, if necessary, contact the store where the
unit was purchased.
• As a general precaution, never open the unit and touch or tamper with the internal circuitry.
If the instrument plays in an abnormal way
• Turn off the power immediately, remove the power cord from the mains outlet and contact the store where it was pur-
chased.
• Discontinue using the unit at once. Failure to do so may result in additional damage or other unexpected damage or
accident.
General user maintenance
• Clean the cabinet and keys of your RP1/RP2/GRP3 using a soft, clean, slightly damp cloth and polish with a soft, dry
cloth.
• Never use industrial cleaners, detergents, abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or polishes as they may damage the instru-
ment finish.
• Always turn off the power supply after use and never turn the unit on and off repeatedly in quick succession as this places
an undue load on the electronic components.

Getting Started
1. Insert the power cord into an appropriate wall outlet.
2. Press the POWER switch to turn on the instrument.
RP1: The instrument will be set to play the Concert Grand Sound across the
entire keyboard. The relative led indicator of the Sound in the Sounds
section will be on.
RP2/GRP3: As well as the led indicator, the display will show the
following information:
CONCERT GRAND 00
3. Play on the keyboard and regulate the Volume.
• Set the general volume of the instrument to an appropriate level by regulat-
ing the VOLUME slider to about the half way mark.
• Note: No sound will be heard when the VOLUME slider is set to the MIN position.
4. Select and play single RP Sounds
The RP Sounds are presets permanently resident in the instrument’s ROM
and recalled by pressing the relative Sound buttons.
• Press the Sound buttons one after the other to listen to the individual Sounds.
• RP1: Each newly selected Sound cancels the previous one.
• RP2/GRP3: As well as the led indicator, the display shows
the name of the selected Sound and relative Program Change number:
RHODEX 04
Playing one Sound only corresponds to SINGLE MODE playing. See also
LAYER MODE and SPLIT MODE afterwards.
Pianovelle presets include the following type of Sounds:
• 8 piano type timbres (piano, harpsichord, vibes, etc.);
• 8 complementary timbres (strings, bass, organ, etc.).
Note on the Polyphony: If you are playing RP1, the Sound you are playing
in Single mode has a minimum of 32 note polyphony [meaning that you can
play at least 32 notes at the same time]. Some RP1 Sounds are 64 note
polyphonic. If you are playing RP2/GPR3, Single mode playing permits a
minimum of 64 notes; some Sounds provide 128 note polyphony.
See “Layer Mode” afterwards to find out what happens to the polyphony.
5. Play using the pedals
All Pianovelle models are equipped with three pedals: Soft, Sostenuto and Damper.
SOFT the Soft pedal (left) is a switch control pedal (On/
Off) and affects the timbre of the sound such that it
plays softer, allowing you to continue using the same
playing style at a lower volume.
SOSTENUTO the Sostenuto pedal (centre) is a switch control pedal
(On/Off). When depressed, it sustains the notes of
the keys currently pressed. All new notes played
after having depressed the pedal will not be affected.
• You can hold Organ, Choir and Strings sounds for
as long as the Sostenuto pedal is depressed.

Important: Before using the pedals, make
sure that the pedal cable is correctly
inserted in the appropriate socket at the
back of the instrument. Refer to the
assembly instructions in the Appendix.

5
DAMPER the Damper pedal (right) applies the Sustain effect to all notes released. If you release a note after
depressing the Damper, the note will proceed towards its natural decay according to the type of
sound played.
The Damper is particularly effective with Piano type sounds. In the case of Organ, Choir and
Strings sounds, the notes will be held for as long as the Damper is depressed.
• Note: for all piano type sounds, the notes of the uppermost keys (from E6 to C8) are automati-
cally sustained, such as in an acoustic piano.
Damper Reproduction
Research carried out by Generalmusic in physical modelling and its applications to the Damper Pedal has achieved a
Damper Pedal reproduction based on 8 levels of action. This permits a gradual application of the Damper effect to repro-
duce particular sonorities such as the “mezzopedale” effect. Furthermore, it is possible to obtain a full-bodied sound,
typical of acoustic pianos which produce a sympathetic strings resonance when all the dampers are raised from the strings.
• Note: Research in Damper Physical Modelling and its applications is the result of collaboration between Generalmusic
and the CSC department of the University of Padova.
6. Set the Brilliance and add Reverb and/or DSP Effects as required
You can change the tone (BRILLIANCE) of your Sounds and render them
more realistic by adding various effects (REVERB, DSP EFFECTS).
These functions are discussed separately further ahead.
• Note: Brilliance does not affect all RP Sounds:
e.g. Organ Sounds.
7. Playing with Headphones
You can play in total silence without disturbing others in the same room by
plugging a set of headphones into one of the appropriate sockets, located
directly under the keyboard on the left side of the instrument. Two sets of
headphones can be used.
Regulating the Volume when playing with Headphones
• Use the VOLUME slider.
• Note: Inserting a headphone jack into the left Phones socket disconnects the
internal speaker system. Inserting a headphone jack into the right Phone
socket does not affect the internal amplification.
External amplification, if connected, is not affected by inserting headphones
into the phones sockets.
• Important: If you do not hear any sound, check that the Speakers plug is
correctly inserted in the appropriate socket at the back of the instrument.
Refer to the Assembly Instructions at the back of the manual.
8. Adjust the Keyboard Sensitivity with the Touch function
You can choose from three different keyboard sensitivity settings, commonly
known as velocity or dynamic curves, to suit your style of playing.
The choices are: SOFT, NORMAL and HARD.
The Touch button has three settings which are selected in a cycle by pressing
the button repeatedly.
SOFT The most sensitive keyboard response which permits
maximum sound levels with a light touch.
NORMAL An intermediate response suitable for most styles of
music.
HARD A not so sensitive keyboard response which requires
a heavier touch to obtain maximum sound levels.

Brilliance
This function affects the timbric quality of the Sound by regulating the Cutoff
frequency of a Lowpass filter incorporated in the preset’s “sample header” (refer to
the Glossary at the back of this manual for an explanation).
You can select from three different “Brilliance” settings:
MELLOW, NORMAL and BRIGHT.
• When both leds are off, the Brilliance setting corresponds to NORMAL.
• Press the +button to select BRIGHT (led turns on).
• Press the –button to return to Normal (both leds off) and again to select
MELLOW.
• Return to the Normal Brilliance by pressing the +button.
Note: the Brilliance function does not show any messages on RP instruments
fitted with a display.
Reverb & DSP Effects
The Reverb and DSP Effects functions respectively apply a Reverberation effect and a
DSP Effect to the Sounds, permitting a choice of three (RP1) or eight (RP2/GRP3) effect
types from each function. The effect types available are selected in a cyclic procedure
and include a Bypass stage when all led indicators are off (see below).
How to select a Reverb or DSP Effect type
1. Press the relative button repeatedly until you obtain the
effect required.
• The Reverb or DSP Effect type selected is shown by the relative led
indicator which turns on.
• RP1: you can choose from three Reverb types (Room, Stage, Hall) and
three DSP Effect types (Chorus, Tremolo, Phaser).
• RP2/GRP3: you can choose from eight Reverb types: Room, Stage, Hall,
Custom (Concert, Church, Small Room 1, Small Room 2, Slap);
and eight DSP Effect types: Chorus, Tremolo, Phaser, Custom (Flanger,
Chorus 2, Tremolo 2, Delay, Delay 2).
2. Assign a preferred effect to each Sound
You can assign a different Reverb and/or DSP Effect type to each Sound.
This permits you to recall your Sounds with the preferred effects every time.*
• Simply select the effect(s) required after selecting the Sound. The assigned
effect(s) will remain memorised after turning off the instrument.
• In Layer mode, the effect(s) recalled will correspond to the first Sound
button pressed. The second Sound does not recall its memorised DSP Effect.
• In Split mode, the effect(s) recalled will correspond to the Sound playing on
the right split while the Bass sound is not processed by the effects.
* Note: The Concert Grand ØØ Sound does not memorise assigned Reverb or DSP
Effect types but resets to the default status every time the instrument is turned on. The
Concert Grand 16 (ASB version), however, memorises assigned effect types.
3. Select Custom Reverb or DSP Effect types - RP2/GRP3 only
RP2/GRP3 models include a Custom Reverb and Custom DSP Effect, each of
which provide an additional 5 effect types to choose from in the display:
Custom Reverb Concert, Church, Small Room 1, Small Room 2, Slap.
Custom DSP Flanger, Chorus 2, Tremolo 2, Delay, Delay 2.
• Select the Custom location by pressing the Reverb or DSP Effect button repeatedly.
The display activates temporarily for selection.

• Note on Reverb Depth: The Reverb Depth (volume) can be adjusted for
each preset and each effect to suit your requirements. How to carry out this
adjustment is explained in the MASTER SET section, under Reverb Depth.
• Note on Effect Depth and Effect Rate: these two parameters can be
adjusted for each preset and each effect to suit your requirements. How to
carry out this adjustment is explained in the MASTER SET chapter, under
Effect Depth and Effect Rate.
Natural String Resonance
The Concert Grand Sound is influenced by the Natural String Resonance effect which simulates the string resonance heard in
acoustic pianos when struck strings produce a sympathetic resonance of unstruck strings. This effect is obtained playing new
notes when one or more notes of the keyboard are already pressed.
• Note: Research in physical modelling technology and its applications to
produce Natural String Resonance is a result of the collaboration between
Generalmusic and the CSC department of the University of Padova.

Transpose
All Pianovelle models incorporate a real time Transpose function which allows
you to change the playing key of the instrument as a whole by acting on the
TRANSPOSE panel buttons (+/ –).
• The +(sharp) button raises the pitch in semitone steps (+ 12 semitones =
positive transposition).
• The –(flat) button lowers the pitch in semitone steps (– 12 semitones =
negative transposition).
RP2/GRP3: pressing one of the Transpose buttons (e.g. +) recalls a tempo-
rary display which shows the following:
TRANSPOSE
+1 C=C#
1. To raise the pitch, press the +Transpose button repeatedly
until the required transposition is obtained.
• The led indicator above the +button turns on to confirm that the instrument
is in a positive transposed status.
RP1: Play, for example, a note C each time you press the +button to listen to
the change of key. If you press the +button while holding a key, the transpo-
sition takes effect only after releasing the key.
RP2/GRP3: a pitch increases is displayed as follows:
TRANSPOSE
+2 C=D
2. To lower the pitch, press the –button repeatedly until
the required transposition is obtained.
• If the instrument is currently in a positive transpose status, press the –
button repeatedly until the led indicator above the +button goes off and the
one above the –button turns on.
RP1: Play a note C, for example, each time you press the –button to listen to
the change of key.
RP2/GRP3: a pitch decrease is shown as follows:
TRANSPOSE
-2 C=D
• The selected Transposition remains in memory after turning off the instru-
ment. You can also restore the default Transpose status by using the Master
Restore function which restores the default values to all edited functions (see
page 25).
Transpose Cancel
• Press both +and –Transpose buttons at the same time to cancel the current
transpose setting.
RP1: The led above the +or –Transpose button goes off to indicate the return

Music Library (RP2/GRP3)
RP2/GRP3 models incorporate the Music Library function which permits the selection of a piano piece from a directory of pieces
contained in the instrument’s ROM. Each directory is further subdivided into sub-directories, each of which contains a selection
of well known compositions.
• Note: The songs contained in the Music Library are recorded with the scope
of being used as study pieces; they contain little or no expression. These
pieces are ideal for the student who can listen to and follow each composi-
tion, slowing down the Tempo and activating the metronome.
• See the Appendix for a list of all pieces contained in the Music Library.
How to select a piece from the Music Library
1. Press the Music Library button.

SOUNDS
Each Sound button activates a Master Set function.
Each function has a value which can be regulated by using
a particular range of keys on the keyboard. The range differs
according to the function selected. In most cases, the note
C4 is equivalent to the value 0 and a set of notes above the
zero point provide positive values while those below provide
negative ones. In other cases, C4 corresponds to the lowest
point of a set of values or settings that differ according to
the function selected.
The diagram below shows the extreme case for the Tune
function. The keys exploited to regulate the values of the
RP1 Master Set functions emit an acoustic sound (a bell)
together with the currently selected preset Sound.
Those not involved in the Master Set operation do not
emit acoustic sounds other than the Sound of the
currently selected preset.
