Thank

on

your

choice

of

the

Roland

HP-3700/2700

Piano.

The

is

a

digital

piano

which,

thanks

to

its

Advanced

Process

digital

source,

provides

the

in

and

capacity.

In

that

have

been

made

available,

The

include

a

luscious

and

classically

There

is

also

vibraphone,

well-

suited

for

and

indispensable

for

pops

and

fusion.

Together,

most

When

the

Damper

pedal

of

an

acoustic

piano

is

depre-

ssed,

strings

adjacent

to

the

notes

played

also

resonate,

creating

much

richer,

expansive

sonorities.

Thanks

to

a

realistic

simulation

of

sympathetic

resonance,

the

HP-

3700/2700

piano

can

achieve

this

effect.

Moreover,

the

pedal

can

be

delicately

controlled

to

produce

a

“half-

pedalling”

effect,

giving

you

more

control

over

the

way

notes

linger

on.

Effects

Your

comes

equipped

with

3

types

of

inter-

nal

digital

effects.

These

include

Chorus,

which

adds

minute

pulsations

to

the

sound

to

give

it

more

richness

and

breadth;

Tremolo,

which

applies

undulations

to

the

sound;

and

Reverb,

which

allows

you

to

play

while

enjoying

the

ambience

of

a

hall.

Comprehensive

Tuning

Functions

With

an

electric

piano,

there

is

actually

no

need

for

tuning

the

piano

at

regular

intervals,

or

after

it

has

been

moved.

However,

the

HP-3700/2700,

by

providing

a

convenient

range

of

tuning

functions,

allows

you

to

easily

change

the

way

the

instrument

is

tuned

to

satisfy

whatever

purpose

you

may

have

in

mind.

is

a

method

of

specific

to

pianos,

whereby

the

A

Word

About

the

Advanced

SA

Process

Sound

Source

The

sounds

produced

by

this

instrument

are

created

using

the

"Advanced

SA

Process,”

which

represents

a

pooling

of

the

best

in

the

latest

digital

technology

by

Roland.

The

ASA

process

is

first

of

all

based

on

the

SA

process,

which

involves

a

series

of

efforts:

first,

an

analysis

of

the

properties

of

sound

as

generated

by

musical

instruments,

then

an

extraction,

and

finally

a

re-synthesis

designed

to

facilitate

the

expressive

needs

of

musicians.

The

result

is

a

sound

generation

method

which

provides

very

finely

textured

and

realistic

sounds.

[About

the

Resonance

Produced

while

the

Damper

Pedal

is

Depressed]

When

the

Damper

Pedal

is

depressed,

ail

strings

on

an

acoustic

piano

are

freed

from

the

effect

of

the

Damper.

For

this

reason,

not

only

will

the

notes

that

were

played

resonate

for

a

longer

time

afterward,

but

such

resonance

is

transmitted

to

other

strings

as

well,

causing

them

to

resonate

sympathetically.

On

the

HP-3700/2700

such

sym-

pathetic

resonation

is

faithfully

simulated

to

create

a

richer,

fuller

sound.

{Half-Pedal

Technique]

This

instrument

allows

you

to

make

use

of

“half-pedal-

ing,”

an

advanced

technique

employed

by

many

skilled

pianists.

Half-pedaling

involves

using

the

Damper

Pedal

skillfully

to

gain

precise,

subtle

control

over

the

length

of

time

that

notes

will

resound.
