Owner’s Manual
 
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland Digital Piano HP-7/3.
 
Main Features
 
Piano sounds with rich resonance and wide-ranging expressiveness
 
The stereo sampling piano sound generator realistically reproduces even the sound 
of the hammers striking the strings, producing the tones of a high-quality concert 
grand piano. Maximum polyphony of 64 notes ensures that you can use the pedal 
freely without running out of notes.
The HP-7 features a new speaker system to provide sounds with depth and spatial 
realism.
 
Pursuing the playing feel of a grand piano
 
These instruments feature a progressive hammer action keyboard, which duplicates 
the touch of a grand piano, with a heavier touch in the lower register, and a lighter 
touch in the upper register. In addition, on the HP-7, even the distinctive “click” that 
you feel when pressing a key on a grand piano has been faithfully simulated 
(escapement mechanism).
The pedal is designed for good-feeling response, and allows subtle performance 
nuances to be expressed.
 
A variety of practice features to help you develop your musicality
 
In addition to a metronome, the HP-7/3 features a rhythm function, which 
encourages your natural sense of rhythm, and a two-track recorder, which allows 
you to experience piano lessons in a way possible only on electronic pianos.
An enjoyable ear-training game is also built-in.
 
65 piano songs built-in
 
The built-in songs are mainly classical pieces, and include compositions for listening 
enjoyment as well as for lessons. The included music score collection (60 songs) is 
also supported.
 
Piano Customize function lets you adjust details of the sound (HP-7)
 
This simulates the tonal changes that occur when the lid of a grand piano is opened 
or closed, allowing you to play using the piano sound you want.
 
Adjustable music stand (HP-7)
 
In addition to allowing you to adjust the angle of the stand, and move it forward or 
backward, the music holders accommodates even thick score books.
 
Before using this unit, 
carefully read the sections 
entitled: 
 
“USING THE 
UNIT SAFELY” and 
“IMPORTANT NOTES” 
(p. 4; p. 6)
 
. These sections 
provide important 
information concerning the 
proper operation of the unit. 
Additionally, in order to feel 
assured that you have 
gained a good grasp of every 
feature provided by your 
new unit, Owner’s manual 
should be read in its 
entirety. The manual should 
be saved and kept on hand 
as a convenient reference.
