on the headphone hook.
Front Panel
These buttons and sliders are used to operate the unit.
* Don’t hang anything other than headphones on this hook, and don’t apply
excessive force to it.
Doing so may damage the headphone hook.
Pedals
Damper Pedal
Use this pedal to sustain the sound. While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an extended time even if you
release your fingers from the keyboard.
With the damper pedal on an acoustic piano, when you step on the pedal it will at first offer only a slight amount of resistance,
but as you press down further it will start to feel much heavier. On the unit, this change in the feeling of resistance is simulated.
On an acoustic piano, when you step on the damper pedal, you’ll first hear the sound of the dampers releasing the strings. Then,
you should also be able to hear the sound of strings adjacent to the ones for the notes actually played resonate sympathetically,
resulting in a rich, resounding tone. Additionally, when using half-pedaling techniques, the core of the sound disappears rapidly
while a rich, spacious resonance remains, producing a unique form of reverberation. On the unit, the unique, lingering tones
produced by the half-pedaling technique are reproduced in addition to released-string sounds (Damper Noise) and resonating
sounds (Damper Resonance).
Sostenuto Pedal
The notes you are pressing when this pedal is depressed will be sustained.
Soft Pedal
This pedal is used to make the sound softer.
Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is not as strong as when otherwise played with the equivalent
strength. This is the same function as the left pedal of an acoustic piano.
The softness of the tone can be varied subtly by the depth to which you press the pedal.

• Notation of a transposing instrument such as trumpet or sax can be played as written, while hearing the transposed pitches.
For example if the song is written in E major but you want to play it using the fingering of the key of C major, you would set Transpose to “4.”
If you play C E G It will sound E G

You can re-record a specific portion of the song.
You can overdub.
* Normally, you should use SMF recording.
Your performance will be recorded as audio data. The recorded song can be used on your computer.
* In order to use audio recording, you must connect a USB flash drive (sold separately) to the USB memory port (p. 10).
HP505 only
Audio recording
Thanks to its multiple number of speakers, each of which can be used to play a different portion of the overall sound, the HP505 is capable of
producing piano sounds that possess great depth and seem to have three-dimensional presence.
Such effects are produced when you play something on the keyboard, or when you play back a song that's been recorded as an SMF.
However, when you make an audio recording, the song will consist of two channels (stereo), and such effects cannot be reproduced.
* SMFs (Standard MIDI Files) use a standard format for music file that was formulated so that files containing music file could be widely compatible,
regardless of the manufacturer of the listening device. An enormous variety of music is available, whether it be for listening, for practicing musical
instruments, for Karaoke, etc.

Tuning
The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you finger the
middle A key (A4). For a cleaner ensemble sound while performing with one or more other
instruments, ensure that each instrument’s standard pitch is in tune with that of the other
instruments. This tuning of all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “master tuning.”

Changing the Tuning Method (Temperament)
You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic temperaments (tuning methods).
How to save your settings?
Save your settings as described in “Memory
Most modern songs are composed for and played in equal temperament, the most common
tuning in use today. But at one time, there were a wide variety of other tuning systems in
existence. By playing in the temperament that was in use when a composition was created,
you can experience the sonorities of chords originally intended for that song.
Screen
EQU
Explanation Qualities
In this tuning, each octave is divided into twelve equal steps. Every interval produces about the same amount of
slight dissonance.
Equal
This tuning eliminates ambiguities in the fifths and thirds. It is unsuited to playing melodies and cannot be
transposed, but is capable of beautiful sonorities.
Temprmnt
MAJ
MIN
Just Major
Just Minor
The Just tunings differ from major and minor keys. You can get the same effect with the minor scale as with the major
scale.
This tuning, devised by the philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and fifths.
Dissonance is produced by third-interval chords, but melodies are euphonious.
PYTH

This is an improvement of the Meantone and Just tunings that provides a high degree of freedom of modulation.
Performances are possible in all keys (III).

Arabic
This scale makes some compromises in just intonation, enabling transposition to other keys.
This temperament combines the Meantone and Pythagorean tunings. Performances are possible in all keys (first
technique, III).
This tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia.
Specifying a Song’s Tonic (Temperament Key)
When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the
temperament key for tuning the song to be performed (that is, the note that corresponds to
C for a major key or to A for a minor key).

The unit uses a hammer action keyboard in order to simulate an acoustic piano’s playing touch as realistically as possible. For
this reason, you’ll hear the hammers thump when you play the keyboard, just as you would when playing an acoustic piano.
Since this unit allows you to adjust its volume, you might notice the sound of the hammers in certain situations, but this does
not indicate a malfunction. If vibration transmitted to the floor or walls is a concern, you may be able to minimize the vibration
by moving the piano away from the wall, or by laying down a commercially available anti-vibration mat designed for use with
pianos.

If you disconnect the pedal cord from the unit while the power is on, the pedal effect may remain “stuck”in the On condition.
You must power-off the unit before connecting or disconnecting the pedal cord.
Could you have changed how the pedal effect is applied?
If the damper pedal part is set to “R,”the pedal will apply only to the right tone; if it is set to “L,”the pedal will apply only to the left
tone.

IMPORTANT NOTES
•
About piano polishing liquid
•
Do not put anything that contains water on this unit.
Power Supply
Also, avoid the use of insecticides, perfumes, alcohol,
nail polish, spray cans, etc., near the unit. Swiftly
wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit using a
dry, soft cloth.
•
Use polishing liquid as directed by the instructions
for the product.
•
Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet
that is being used by an electrical appliance that
is controlled by an inverter or a motor (such as a
refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or
air conditioner). Depending on the way in which
the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise
may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce
audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate
electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter
between this unit and the electrical outlet.
•
Use only polishing liquid that is intended for use on
polished-finish pianos. Using any other polishing
liquid may cause scratches, deformation, or
discoloration. To purchase polishing liquid, contact
your nearby musical instrument dealer.
Maintenance
•
To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that
is slightly dampened. Try to wipe the entire surface
using an equal amount of strength, moving the cloth
along with the grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard
in the same area can damage the finish.
•
•
Use the polishing liquid only on the polished
surfaces of the cabinet. Always wipe the surface
with the grain using straight, even strokes. Do
not repeatedly wipe the same places using too
much pressure, since that might result in the loss
of luster.
Be sure to keep the polishing liquid out of the
reach of small children. If the polishing liquid is
accidentally swallowed, first get them to vomit,
then take them to a doctor.
•
•
•
The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after
long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is
not a cause for concern.
•
•
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of
any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration
and/or deformation.
To prevent malfunction and equipment failure,
always make sure to turn off the power on all your
equipment before you make any connections.
The pedals of this unit are made of brass.
Brass eventually darkens as the result of the natural
oxidization process. If the brass becomes tarnished,
polish it using commercially available metal polisher.
Repairs and Data
With the factory settings, the HP505 or HP503 will
automatically be switched off 30 minutes after you
stop playing or operating the unit. If the unit’s power
has been turned off automatically, you can use the
[Power] switch to turn the unit back on again. If
you don’t want the unit to turn off automatically,
change the “Auto Off”setting to “Off”as described
•
Please be aware that all data contained in the
unit’s memory may be lost when the unit is sent for
repairs. Important data should always be backed up
USB flash drives, or written down on paper (when
possible). During repairs, due care is taken to avoid
the loss of data. However, in certain cases (such
as when circuitry related to memory itself is out
of order), we regret that it may not be possible to
restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability
concerning such loss of data.
Since wood will expand and contract depending
on how it is used and the environment in which it is
located, products made of wood may experience a
gradual loosening of the screws over time.
To ensure that your piano remains in safe, optimal
condition, you should regularly check the tightness of
the screws in the locations shown in the illustration. If
you find that any screws are loose, use a screwdriver to
tighten them.
NOTE
The settings you were editing will be lost when the
unit is turned off. If you want to keep your settings,
you must save your settings before turning the unit
off.
Additional Precautions
•
Please be aware that the contents of memory can
be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction,
or the improper operation of the unit. To protect
yourself against the risk of loosing important data,
we recommend that you periodically save a backup
copy of important data you have stored in the unit’s
memory on a USB flash drive.
Placement
•
Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other
equipment containing large power transformers)
may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change
the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away
from the source of interference.
•
•
Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore
the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s
memory, USB flash drives once it has been lost.
Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning
such loss of data.
•
•
This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of
such receivers.
Noise may be produced if wireless communications
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the
vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when
receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing.
Should you experience such problems, you should
relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater
distance from this unit, or switch them off.
Use a reasonable amount of care when using the
unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when
using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can
lead to malfunctions.
•
•
Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
When disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector
itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will
avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s
internal elements.
Maintenance of polished-finish pianos
(Only for HP505-PE)
•
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place
it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside
an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to
temperature extremes. Also, do not allow lighting
devices that normally are used while their light
source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light),
or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area
of the unit for extended periods of time. Excessive
heat can deform or discolor the unit.
•
Since your piano has a polished finish that is as
delicate as that found on finely crafted wooden
furniture, it needs careful, periodic care. A few
important suggestions concerning the proper care
of the unit follow. For dusting, using a soft, clean
cloth and/or piano-use feather duster. Be sure to
wipe gently. Even the tiniest grains of sand or grit
can leave scratches on the surface if too much force
is applied while wiping. Do not use any cleaners or
detergents, since they might deteriorate the surface
of the cabinet, and produce cracks.
•
•
To avoid disturbing others nearby, try to keep the
unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer
to use headphones, so you do not need to be
concerned about those around you.
The sound of keys being struck and vibrations
produced by playing an instrument can be
transmitted through a floor or wall to an unexpected
extent. Please take care not to cause annoyance to
others nearby.
•
•
When moved from one location to another where
the temperature and/or humidity is very different,
water droplets (condensation) may form inside
the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you
attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore,
before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for
several hours, until the condensation has completely
evaporated.
If the cabinet’s surface loses its luster, wipe it
thoroughly with a soft cloth dampened with a little
of the polishing liquid. Do not use any cleaners or
detergents, since they might deteriorate the surface
of the cabinet, and produce cracks. Do not use
dusting cloths that contain chemicals.
•
When you need to transport the unit, package it
in the box (including padding) that it came in, if
possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent
packaging materials.
Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to
remain on this unit for long periods of time. Such
objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully affect
the finish.
•
•
Do not apply undue force to the music stand while
it is in use.
Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not
use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting
to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the
sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to
hear. For information on cable specifications, contact
the manufacturer of the cable.
•
•
Do not allow objects to remain on top of the
keyboard. This can be the cause of malfunction, such
as keys ceasing to produce sound.
Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this
instrument. Peeling such matter off the instrument
may damage the exterior finish.

About the Ivory Feel Keyboard
Features of an ivory feel keyboard
Traditional piano keys are made from the best materials-ivory (for white keys) and ebony (for black keys). The Ivory Feel keyboard uses the latest
in technology to reproduce the touch and feel of these materials.
An Ivory Feel keyboard offers the following features.
• We’re sure you’ll develop a fondness for the distinctive texture of these keys, which feels better the more you play them.
• Surfaces incorporate stripes of moisture-absorbing material for improved touch and playability.
• The keys feature subtle gloss and understated coloring, enhancing the look and elegance.
• The white keys are finished with a slight yellowish tinge for the look of real ivory.
Handling
• Do not write on the keyboard with any pen or other implement, and do not stamp or place any marking on the instrument. Ink will seep
into the surface lines and become unremovable.
• Do not affix stickers on the keyboard. You may be unable to remove stickers that use strong adhesives, and the adhesive may cause
discoloration.
Care and maintenance
Please note the following points. Failure to do so may result in scratches on the surface finish, damaged gloss, or other discoloration or
deformation.
• To remove dirt, use a soft cloth.
Using a moistened and tightly wrung-out cloth, gently wipe off any dirt.
Do not rub the surface vigorously.
• To remove stubborn dirt, use a commercially available keyboard cleaner that does not contain abrasives.
Start by wiping lightly. If the dirt does not come off, wipe using gradually increasing amounts of pressure while taking care not to scratch
the keys.
• Do not use benzene, paint thinner, or alcohol on the instrument.

•
•
•
To move the piano, lift it carefully—all the while keeping it level.
Be careful not to pinch your hands or drop this unit on your foot during assembly or transport.
Make sure to enlist the help of at least one other person when assembling this unit and moving it to a different location.
Make sure to keep screws and any other small parts in a safe location that is out of the reach of small children, so such small parts won’t accidentally get swallowed.
All screws should be tightened provisionally first, then tightened later. To tighten a screw provisionally, screw it in until about half of its length is no longer visible. Do not use
an electric screwdriver when tightly securing the screws. Otherwise, you risk stripping the threads.
* The screwdriver needed to perform the assembly is not supplied. You’ll need to have ready a Phillips screwdriver that matches the size of the screws.
* After firmly tightening all the screws, place the unit at a location that is level and sure to remain stable. The unit must never be placed on top of deep-pile carpet. Otherwise, you risk
causing damage to the pedals due to instability and unnecessary movement.
* The surface of the piano unit and the stand are very delicate; handle with care to avoid scratching them.
* Do not place the piano unit directly on the floor. Doing so will damage the bottom panel case and the connectors and holders on the bottom of the piano.

About ground terminal
Depending on the circumstances of a particular setup, you may experience a
discomforting sensation, or perceive that the surface feels gritty to the touch
when you touch this device. This is due to an infinitesimal electrical charge,
which is absolutely harmless. However, if you are concerned about this,
connect the ground terminal (see figure) with an external ground. When the
unit is grounded, a slight hum may occur, depending on the particulars of your
installation. If you are unsure of the connection method, contact the nearest
