Introduction
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland KR-7/5 Intelligent Piano.
While the KR-7/5 Intelligent Piano certainly allows you to achieve authentic piano 
performances, it also features easy-to-use Automatic Accompaniment and numerous 
other useful functions. In order to enjoy reliable performance of your new keyboard for 
many years to come, please take the time to read through this manual in its entirety.
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 128 notes (KR-7) or 64 notes (KR-5) ensures that you can use the 
pedal freely without running out of notes.
The KR-7 features a new speaker system, “grand piano presence 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 KR-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.
Get Easy Results with the Main Buttons
You can play songs, display scores, play the Automatic Accompaniment, select Tones, 
and perform other main KR functions easily by pressing the main buttons found on both 
sides of the screen.
With the

songs for piano practice to the latest hits. Pressing the 
[Score Display] button
 lets you 
display not only the score for any of the internal songs, but for your own recorded songs 
and songs on floppy disks.
With the 
[Music Assistant] button
 you can select a song you want to play, call up 
Automatic Accompaniment settings that match that song, and while looking at the 
chord score, perform with accompaniment added.
Thanks to the 
[Select Various Tones] button
, which is used to select suggested Tones 
from the more than 600 internal Tones; the 
[Song Stylist] button
 (KR-7), which allows 
you to listen to a variety of arrangements of the internal popular songs, and transform 
them into rock, jazz, or other forms of music; and the 
[Session Partner] button
 (KR-7), 
which lets you leave the chords and rhythm to the backing band, and give your 
performances the feel of a group session, you can enjoy playing the KR in a great variety 
of creative ways.
