Manual
Thank
you,
and
congratulations
on
your
choice
of
the
Roland
ep-95
/ep-85/ep-75
Digital
Piano.
Designed
to
make
it
easier
for
more
people
to
have
fun
with
music,
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
has
firm
roots
in
the
same
leading-edge
technology
and
manufacturing
know-how
that
has
made
Roland
a
leader
in
electronic
musical
instrament
development.
The
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
provides
8
sounds
and
an
accompa-
niment
section
(called
Pianist)
with
11
inspiring
patterns
for
you
to
have
fun
with.
When
controlled
by
an
external
sequencer
or
computer
with
sequencing
software,
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
can
be
used
as
mullti-
timbral
sound
module
that
conform
to
the
GS
format
(241
sounds,
9
Drum
Sets).
The
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
also
provides
additional
features,
including
a
convenient
recording
function.
This
manual
explains
how
to
use
the
ep-95
and
ep-85/ep-75.
Aspects
that
are
only
available
on
the
ep-95
will
be
clearly
marked
as
such.
Please
read
this
manual
in
its
entirety
before
starting
out.
Have
fun!
In
addition
to
the
items
listed
under
“IMPOR-
TANT
SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS”
and
“USING
THE
UNIT
SAFELY”,
please
read
and
observe
the
following:
(
Power
Supply
¢
Do
not
use
this
instrument
on
the
same
power
circuit
with
devices
that
will
generate
line
noise
(such
as
an
electric
motor
or
variable
lighting
system).
*
Before
connecting
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
to
other
devices,
turn
off
the
power
to
all
units.
This
will
help
prevent
malfunctions
and/or
damage
to
speakers
or
other
devices.
[3
Placement
¢
This
instrument
may
interfere
with
radio
and
television
reception.
Do
not
use
it
in
the
vicinity
of
such
receivers.
Do
not
place
the
instrument
near
devices
that
produce
a
strong
magnetic
field
(e.g.,
loudspeak-
ers).
Install
the
ep-85/ep-75
on
a
solid,
level
surface
and
mount
the
ep-95
on
its
stand.
*
Do
not
expose
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
to
direct
sunlight,
place
it
near
devices
that
radiate
heat,
leave
it
inside
an
enclosed
vehicle,
or
otherwise
subject
it
to
temperature
extremes.
Excessive
heat
can
deform
or
discolor
the
unit.
°
Q
Maintenance
For
everyday
cleaning
wipe
the
instrument
with
a
soft,
dry
cloth
or
one
that
has
been
slightly
dampened
with
water.
To
remove
stubborn
dirt,
use
a
mild,
non-abrasive
detergent.
Afterwards,
be
sure
to
wipe
the
instrument
thoroughly
with
a
soft,
dry
cloth.
e
Never
use
benzene,
thinners,
alcohol
or
solvents
of
any
kind,
to
avoid
the
possibility
of
discol-
oration
and/or
deformation.
&
Repairs
and
data
backup
*
Please
be
aware
that
all
data
contained
in
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75’s
memory
may
be
lost
when
the
instrument
is
sent
for
repairs.
During
repairs,
due
care
is
taken
to
avoid
the
loss
of
data.
How-
ever,
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.
Roland
assumes
no
liability
concerning
such
loss
of
data.
Additional
precautions
¢
Please
be
aware
that
the
contents
of
memory
can
be
irretrievably
lost
as
a
result
of
a
malfunction,
or
the
improper
operation
of
the
instrument.
*
Use
a
reasonable
amount
of
care
when
using
the
instruments’s
buttons,
sliders
other
controls.
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
dam-
age
to
the
cable
wires.
¢
A
small
amount
of
heat
will
radiate
from
the
instrument
during
normal
operation.
¢
To
avoid
disturbing
your
neighbors,
try
to
keep
the
instrument’s
volume
at
a
reasonable
level.
At
times,
it
may
be
preferable
to
use
headphones.
¢
When
you
need
to
transport
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-
75,
package
it
in
the
box
(including
padding)
that
it
came
in
or
use
a
hard
or
soft
case.
Before
making
any
connections,
make
sure
you
have
the
power
on
your
instrument
turned
off.

The

is
an
automatic

func-
tion
that
provides
a
piano
accompaniment
for
your
melodies
based
on
the
chords
you
play
with
your
left

Unlike
the
normal
piano
mode
(see
page

the
ep-95/ep-85
/ep-75's
Pianist
splits
the
keyboard
into
two
halves.
Let’s
agree
to
call
the
left
half
of
the
keyboard
the
Lower
zone,
and
to
refer
to
the
right
half
as
the
Upper
zone.
The

cated
at

Play
a
C
to
the

of
the
Split
Point.
The
ep-95/ep-85/75
now
assumes
that
you
want-
ed
to
play
a
C
major
chord
and
starts
an
accom-
paniment
in
C
major.
The
function
that
allows
the
ep-95/ep-85
/ep-75
to
make
that
assumption
is
called
Chord

Chord
Intelligence
simplifies
chord
fingering
to
a
degree
that
even
newcomers
wiil
have
little
trou-
ble
playing
great
music.
Let’s
have
a
look
at
how
Chord
Intelligence
works.
Look
at
the
following
examples
of
C
chords
and
try
out
the
fingering
you
see
in
the
right
illustrations.
(For
your
reference,
we
also
included
the
correct
fingering
of
these
chords.
You
may
need
them
for
playing

music.)
Note:
By
playing
your
first

you
will
start
the

Pianist:
musical
accompaniments
But
why
do
you
need
chords?
That
is
because
the
Pianist
uses
the
selected
Style
and
transposes
it
to
the
key
you
specify
by
playing
(intelligent)
chords.
Try
this
out
now:
first
play
a
C
in
the
Lower
zone,
wait
until
the
end
of
the
first
bar,
then
play
a
G,
and
go
back
to
C
again.
Once
you’ve
mastered
that,
try
improvising
a
melody
to
the
accompaniment
with
your
right
hand.
Selecting

The
built-in
accompaniments
of
your

Changing
the
split
point
As
you
know,
the
preset
split
point
between
the
Upper
section
and
the
Pianist
is
set
at
C3
(C4
on
ep-75).
There
may
be
times
when
that
is
just
at
little
too
far
to
the
left
or
right.
The
ep-95/ep-85
allows
you
to
change
the
split
point
to
any
key
between
C2
and
the
C4
(C3-C5
on
ep-75)
that
is,
one
octave
up
or
down
with
respect
to
the
preset
value.
Here
is
how
to
change
it:
1.
Press

button
until
its
indi-
cator
starts
flashing.
2.
Press
the
key

A
combination
of
two
Tones
that
sound
simulta-

is
called
a

The
most
widely

layer
combination
is
piano

strings,
but
layers
consisting
of
an
acoustic
and
an
electric
piano
also
work
well,
while
organ
and
choir
can
be
downright
impressive.
Here’s

Since
not
all
pieces

you

to
familiarize
yourself
with
the
semi-tone
system.
Here’s
an
example:
suppose
you
are

playing
“When

in

One
day,
a
member
of
your
family
asks
you
to
accompany
him
or
her but
he/she
studied
the
song
in

In
that
case,
you
have
to

it
takes
to
go
from
A
to
D
(either:
G#/G/
F#/F/E/D#,
D=

or
A#/B/C/C#/D=

See-
ing
that
7
semi-tone-intervals
are
not

the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75,
you'll
have
to
hold

because
the
F
is
five
semi-tones

even
relatively
softly
played
notes
will
be
trans-
lated
as
“forte”.
Persons
who
are
used
to
playing
on
a
heavy
key-
board
should
press
KEY
TOUCH
[HEAVY]
(indi-
cator
must
light).
To
return
to
normal
velocity
sensitivity,
press
the
same
button
([LIGHT]
or
[HEAVY])
again
so
that
its
indicator
goes
dark.
Note:
At
power-on,
the
ep-95
will
return
to
normal
Key
Touch
(both
indicators
off).
About
the
pedals
The
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
accommodates
the
use
of
two
pedals:
the
Damper
pedal,
and
the
Soft
ped-
al.
The
ep-95
comes
with
a
pedal
unit
built
into
its
stand,
one
DP-6
pedal
is
supplied
with
the
ep-85
while
one
DP-2
pedal
is
suplied
with
the
ep-75.
(You
may
wish
to
purchase
a
second
pedal
to
take
advantage
of
the
Soft
function.)
See
“Connections/
powering
up”
for
how
to
con-
nect
the
pedals.
Here
is
what
they
do:
Damper:
sustains
the
notes
you
are
playing
at
the
time
you
press
the
pedal.
All
subsequent
notes
will
also
be
sustained
for
as
long
as
you
keep
the
pedal
depressed.
Soft:
reduces
the
volume
of
the
notes
you
play.
This
may
be
useful
for
playing
baroque
music
with
the
HARPSICHORD
sound
or
any
classical
piano
piece.
Your
ep-95/ep-85
/ep-75
also
contains
a
Recorder
function
that
allows
you
to
record
your
own
versions
of
existing
music
or
your
original
songs.
Feel
free
to
use
the
Pianist
so
that
you
can
concentrate
on
the
melody
while
the
Pianist
takes
care
of
the
accompaniment.
There
is
one
Recorder
memory
with
a
capacity
of
about
1000
notes.
Recording
1.
Press
[REC]
{indicator

really
only
do
so
if
you
have
no

MIDI
is
short
for
Musical
Instrument
Digital
Inter-
face.
The
concept
refers
to
many
things,
the
most
obvious
being
a
connector
type
that
is
used
by
musical
instruments
and
effects
devices
to
exchange
messages
relating
to
the
act
of
making
music.
Every
time
you
play
on
the
ep-95/ep-
85/ep-75's
keyboard
or
start
the
Pianist,
your
instrument
will
send
MIDI
data
to
its
MIDI
OUT
port.
If
you
connect
that
port
to
the
MIDI
IN
port
of
another
instrument,
that
instrument
may
play
the
same
notes
as
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75.
MIDI
is
a
language
that
translates
every
action
relating
to
music
into
binary
digits
that
can
be
transferred
via
a
MIDI
cable.
It
is
a
universal
standard,
which
means
that
musical
data
can
be
sent
to
and
received
by
instruments
of
different
types
and
manufacturers.
Furthermore,
MIDI
allows
you
to
connect
your
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
to
a
computer
or
hardware
sequencer.
Requirements
for
receiving
and
transmitting
MIDI
data
MIDI
messages
are
transmitted
and
received
using
two
(sometimes
three)
connectors
and
spe-
cial
MIDI
cables:
ep-95/85/75
External
MIDI
device
This
connector
receives
mes-
sages
from
other
MIDI
devices.
This
connector
transmits
MIDI
messages
generated
on
your
ep-95/ep-85
/ep-75.
This
connector
“echoes
back”
ali
MIDI
messages
received
via
MIDI
IN
(not
available
on
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75).
MIDI
THRU:
Explaining
MIDI
in
great
detail
lies
beyond
the
scope
of
this
manual.
There
is
a
booklet
called
MIDI
Guide
available
from your
Roland
dealer
that
tells
you
the
ins
and
outs
of
MIDI.
Here
is
what
MIDI
allows
you
to
do:
You
can
play
on
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75's
key-
board
and
have
another
instrument
play
exactly
the
same
notes
(usually
with
a
different
sound).
That
is
the
same
as
layering
two
sound
on
the
ep-95
/ep-85/ep-75
itself,
except
that
the
external
sound
doesn’t
use
your
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75's
voices
(it
is
28-voice
polyphonic).
You
can
connect
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
to
a
com-
puter
with
sequencer
software
or
a
hardware
sequencer
and
have
it
play
back
the
notes
trans-
mitted
by
the
sequencer
(software).
If
you
play
back
GM/GS
compatible
Standard
MIDI
Files,
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
will
function
as
16-part
multitimbral
sound
module
(like
a
Roland
Sound
Canvas).
Your
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
receives
on
all
16
MIDI
channels
and
can
play
back
as
many
as
16
paris
using
different
sounds
(a
feature
referred
to
as
multitimbral).
To be
able
to
transmit
MIDI
data
to
a
receiving
device,
connect
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75’s
MIDI
OUT
port
to
the
external
module’s/sequencer’s
MIDI
IN
port.
External
MIDI
device
ep-95/85/75
In
the
case
of
a
sequencer,
you
may
also
want
to
connect
the
external
device’s
MIDI
OUT
port
to
the
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75’s
MIDI
IN
port.
(When
recording
sequences,
you
need
to
switch
off
the
sequencer’s
MIDI

function.)

Program
changes
“Program
changes”
are
MIDI
messages
that
tell
the
receiving
instrument
to
select
another
sound
(or
memory)
and
also
contain
information
about
which
Tone
to
select.
Using
program
changes
is
a
convenient
way
of
ensuring
that
a
given
song
is
played
back
with
the
desired
sound.
Your
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
receives
and
transmits
the

Bedienungsanleitung
Vielen
Dank,
da
Sie
sich
fiir
das
Roland
ep-95/ep-85
/ep-75
Digital-Piano
entschieden
haben.
Dieses
Instrument
ist
aus
dem
Gedanken
heraus
entstanden,
einem
méglichst
breiten
Musikerkreis
ein
vollwertiges
Instrument
anzubieten.
Genau
wie
allen
anderen
Roland-Instrumente
beruht
das
ep-95/ep-
85
/ep-75
auf
den
technologischen
Errungenschaften
und
der
Erfahrung,
die
wir
im
Laufe
der
Jahre
gesammelt
haben
und
die
uns
zum
ftihrenden
Hersteller
elektronischer
Musikinstrumente
gemacht
haben.
Das
ep-95/ep-85
/ep-75
bietet
8
Klange
sowie
eine
Begleitsektion
(den
Pianist)
mit
11
anregenden
Mustern,
bei
denen
sofort
Freude
und
gute
Laune
aufkommen.
Im
Verbund
mit
einem
externen
Sequen-
zer
oder
Computer
mit
Sequenzerprogramm
verwandelt
sich
das
ep-95/ep-85
/ep-75
in
ein
multitimbra-
es
Tonmodul,
das
zudem
GS-kompatibel
ist
(241
Klange
und
9
Drum
Sets).
Dartiber
hinaus
bietet
das
ep-95/ep-85/ep-75
noch
weitere
niitzliche
Funktionen,
darunter
einen
Recor-
der,
mit
