Owner's

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

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

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

first

time

you

switch

on

your

ep-95/ep-85/ep-

it

will

automatically

select

the

Pianist

mode.

See

step

(2)

under

“First

steps”

if

you

have

selected

the

piano

mode.

Note

that

the

ep-95/ep-85

/

ep-75

can

be

used

as

a

“real”

piano

in

Pianist

mode

(i.e.

with-

out

accompaniment).

Just

(indicator

The

Pianist

is

an

automatic

accompaniment

func-

tion

that

provides

a

piano

accompaniment

for

your

melodies

based

on

the

chords

you

play

with

your

left

hand.

Unlike

the

normal

piano

mode

(see

page

10),

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

split

point

is

lo-

cated

at

C3

(C4

on

Play

a

to

of

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

Intelligence.

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

piano,

organ,

etc.,

music.)

Note:

By

playing

your

first

chord,

you

will

start

the

Pianist.

If

you

want

to

stop

it,

press

[REY

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

look

at

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

and

hold

down

any

Style

select

button

until

its

indi-

cator

starts

flashing.

2.

Press

the

key

on

the

keyboard

is

to

become

the

new

split

point.

This

split

point

is

memorized

when

you

switch

off

your

ep-95/ep-85/ep-75.

Be

aware,

however,

that

the

ep-95/ep-83/ep-75

will

revert

to

C3

(C4

on

ep-75)

when

you

recall

the
