Making Detailed Settings for the ONE TOUCH Tones
 
The RD-700GX contains a SuperNATURAL E. Piano sound 
generator.
The SuperNATURAL E. Piano sound generator is Roland’s 
completely new sound generator, which faithfully models the 
varieties and characteristics of the vintage electric pianos of 
the ’60s through the ’80s. It is not limited to typical E. piano 
modeling, but also provides completely new types of E. piano 
sound.
Unlike the parameters of a conventional synthesizer, this 
allows you to create a variety of sounds in the way that a 
specialized engineer or tuner could do. For example, you can 
easily change the position of the pickups, or exchange 
components of the sound-generating system.
When ONE TOUCH [E. PIANO] is pressed, all 
settings other than the E. Piano Designer settings 
are switched to their status at the time the RD-
700GX’s power was turned on. Store any 
arrangements of settings that you want to keep in 
Setup (p. 67).
