Roland
AAA
Owner's
Manual
Thank
you
for
purchasing
a
Roland
HP-147e
Digital
Piano.
The
HP-147e
is
a
new
model
of
Roland's
HP
series
Digital
Pianos.
As
such,
it
comes
with
all
the
benefits:
a
weighted
Hammer-Action
keyboard,
vibrant
sounds
and
a
number
of
useful
functions.
Authentic
piano
performances
High-quality
concert
grand
piano
sounds,
and
a
key-
board
that's
a
true
pleasure
to
play
assure
an
even
more
realistic
piano-playing
experience.
Thanks
to
its
Hammer-Action
keyboard,
the
HP-147e
faithfully
reproduces
the
feel
of
an
acoustic
piano
with
minute
control
over
the
sound.
Captures
the
brilliant
resonance
The
sound
of
a
grand
piano
has
a
brilliant
timbre
because
the
sound
of
a
grand
piano
contains
a
greater
amount
of
high-frequency
components.
The
HP-147e
reproduces
this
characteristic
of
the
grand
piano.
Extended
high-frequency
response
One
of
the
features
of
an
acoustic
piano
is
that
for
the
strings
of
the
highest
1
1/2
octaves,
there
is
no
damper
to
restrict
the
vibration
of
the
strings,
irre-
spective
of
whether
or
not
the
damper
pedal
is
used.
Since
this
also
allows
these
strings
to
vibrate
sympa-
thetically
with
other
strings,
they
can
sometimes
be
hcard
sounding
independently
from
the
low
and
mid-
dle-register
strings.
The
HP-147e
faithfully
simulates
these
characteristics
of
the
acoustic
piano
(being
a
digital
instrument,
the
HP-147e
contains
no
strings).
High-quality
Reverb
The
HP-147e's
Reverb
function
can
add
various
types
of
reverberation
(sound
that
is
reflected
off
the
walls
of
a
room)
to
the
instrument
sounds.
Four
Tones
for a
wide
variety
of
musical
genres
The
HP-147e
comes
with
four
sounds
(called
“Toncs”).
That
way,
you
can
also
use
your
instrument
for
playing
pop,
jazz,
etc.
music.
Before
using
this
instrument,
carefully
read
the
sec-
tions
on
pages
2
and
4.
They
provide
important
infor-
mation
concerning
the
proper
operation
of
the
HP-147e.
To
get
the
most
out
of
the
HP-147e
and
to
ensure
many
years
of
trouble-free
service,
we
urge
you
to
read
through
this
Owner's
Manual
thoroughly.
To
avoid
confusion,
let's
agree
to
use
the
word
“but-
ton”
for
all
keys
on
the
front
panel,
and
only
use
“key”
when
referring
to
the
HP-147e's
keyboard.

About
the
pedals
Soft
Pedal
Damper
Pedal
Sostenuto
Pedal
Soft
pedal—This
pedal
softens
the
sound.
Playing
with
the
soft
pedal
depressed
produces
a
sound
that
is
not
as
strong
as
when
otherwise
played
with
the
equivalent
strength.
Sostenuto
pedal
—With
the
Sostenuto
pedal,
only
the
sound
played
at
the
moment
the
pedal
is
pressed
is
sustained.
Damper
pedal
—Use
this
pedal
when
you
want
the
sound
to
linger.
While
the
damper
pedal
is
depressed,
the
notes
you
play
linger
on
(are
sustained)
for
an
extended
period,
even
after
removing
your
fingers
from
the
keys.
On
acoustic
pianos,
when
the
damper
pedal
is
depressed,
additional
strings
are
released
to
resonate
with
the
sound
of
the
keys
that
have
been
played,
adding
richness
and
breadth
to
the
sound.
The
damper
pedal
on
the
HP-147e
recreates
this
resonance
when
depressed.
This
is
called
“Sympathetic
Reso-
nance”.

the

You
can
play

This
is
especially
useful
when
you
are
used
to
playing
a

in
one

while
someone
else
wants
you
to

it
in
another

just

If
you
are
encountering
problems
with
the
HP-147e,
please

the
section
below
before
assuming
that
there
is
a
malfunction.
The
piano
cannot
be
switched

Is
the
power
cord
properly
connected?
(p.

No
sound
is

the
minimum
position?
(p.

Bass
notes
sound
wrong/buzzing
or
vibration
occurs
If
you
can't
hear
the
problem
in
the
headphones:
When
playing
at
high
volumes,
resonance
may
occur
in
the
piano
itself
or
in
objects
near
the
piano.
At
times,
other
objects
in
the
room,
such
as
fluorescent
lights
or
glass
doors,
could
start
vibrating.
This
becomes
more
noticeable
when
sounding
the
lower
frequencies
at
high
volume.
To
minimize
such
unwanted
resonance,
please
observe
the
following:
HP-147e
»
Locate
the
instrument
at
least
10-15
cm
away
from
the
walls.
»
Reduce
the
volume.
*
Increase
the
distance
from
the
object
that
is
resonat-
ing.
If
you
can
hear
the
problem
in
the
headphones,
there
may
be
another
reason.
Please
contact
your
dealer.
in

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
HP-147e,
the

unaffected
by
the
damper
pedal
