Important Notes
291b

In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on pages 2
and 3, please read and observe the following:

Power Supply
301

• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is
being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by
an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a
motor. 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.
307

• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions
and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
308

• Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the
POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the
unit has been completely disconnected from the source of
power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first
turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord
from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into
which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug
should be one that is within easy reach.

Placement
351

• 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.
352a

• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
352b

• 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.
353

• Observe the following when using the unit’s floppy disk
drive. For further details, refer to “Before Using Floppy
Disks” (p. 6).
• Do not place the unit near devices that produce a
strong magnetic field (e.g., loudspeakers).
• Install the unit on a solid, level surface.
• Do not move the unit or subject it to vibration while
the drive is operating.
354b

• 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.

355b

• 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.
356

• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain
on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can
discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.
358

• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard or
pedal board. This can be the cause of malfunction, such as
keys ceasing to produce sound.
359

• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.
Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the
exterior finish.

Maintenance
401b

• 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.
402

• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.

Repairs and Data
452

• 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 on a floppy
disk, 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.

Additional Precautions
551

• 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 floppy disk.
552

• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data that was stored on a floppy disk once it has been
lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning
such loss of data.
553

• 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.
554

• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
555

• A small amount of noise may be heard from the display
during normal operation.

Important Notes

556

• When connecting / 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.
557

• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during
normal operation.
558a

• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, 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 (especially when it is late at night).
559b

• When you need to transport the unit, pack it in shockabsorbent material. Transporting the unit without doing
so can cause it to become scratched or damaged, and
could lead to malfunction.
560

• Do not apply undue force to the music stand while it is in
use.
562

• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using
some other make of connection cable, please note the
following precautions.
• 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.

Handling Floppy Disks
651

• Floppy disks contain a plastic disk with a thin coating of
magnetic storage medium. Microscopic precision is
required to enable storage of large amounts of data on
such a small surface area. To preserve their integrity,
please observe the following when handling floppy disks:
• Never touch the magnetic medium inside the disk.
• Do not use or store floppy disks in dirty or dusty areas.
• Do not subject floppy disks to temperature extremes
(e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle). Recommended temperature range: 10 to 50° C (50 to 122° F).
• Do not expose floppy disks to strong magnetic fields,
such as those generated by loudspeakers.
652

• Floppy disks have a “write protect” tab which can protect
the disk from accidental erasure. It is recommended that
the tab be kept in the PROTECT position, and moved to
the WRITE position only when you wish to write new
data onto the disk.
Rear side of the disk

Write
(can write new data onto disk)

Before Using Floppy Disks
Handling the Floppy Disk Drive
602

• Install the unit on a solid, level surface in an area free from
vibration.
603

• Avoid using the unit immediately after it has been moved
to a location with a level of humidity that is greatly
different than its former location. Rapid changes in the
environment can cause condensation to form inside the
drive, which will adversely affect the operation of the
drive and/or damage floppy disks. When the unit has
been moved, allow it to become accustomed to the new
environment (allow a few hours) before operating it.
604

• To insert a disk, push it gently but firmly into the drive—
it will click into place. To remove a disk, press the EJECT
button firmly. Do not use excessive force to remove a disk
which is lodged in the drive.
605a

• Never eject a disk while reading or writing is in progress,
since that can damage the magnetic surface of the disk,
rendering it unusable. (The disk drive’s indicator will
light up at full brightness when the drive is busy reading
or writing data. Ordinarily, the indicator will be less
brightly lit, or be extinguished.)
606

• Remove any disk from the drive before powering up or
down.
607

• To prevent damage to the disk drive’s heads, always try to
hold the floppy disk in a level position (not tilted in any
direction) while inserting it into the drive. Push it in
firmly, but gently. Never use excessive force.
608

• To avoid the risk of malfunction and/or damage, insert
only floppy disks into the disk drive. Never insert any
other type of disk. Avoid getting paper clips, coins, or any
other foreign objects inside the drive.

Write Protect Tab

Protect
(prevents writing to disk)

653

• The identification label should be firmly affixed to the
disk. Should the label come loose while the disk is in the
drive, it may be difficult to remove the disk.
654

• Store all disks in a safe place to avoid damaging them, and
to protect them from dust, dirt, and other hazards. By
using a dirty or dust-ridden disk, you risk damaging the
disk, as well as causing the disk drive to malfunction.
655

• Disks containing performance data for this unit should
always be locked (have their write protect tab slid to the
“Protect” position) before you insert them into the drive
on some other unit (except the PR-300, or a product in the
HP-G, MT, KR, or Atelier families), or into a computer’s
drive. Otherwise (if the write protect tab remains in the
“Write” position), when you perform any disk operations
using the other device’s disk drive (such as checking the
contents of the disk, or loading data), you risk rendering
the disk unreadable by this unit’s disk drive.

respectively.

Basic concepts of the ATELIER series
A full complement of organ sounds
A wide range of basic organ sounds, ranging from jazz organ and pipe organ to theatre organ, are onboard so you are sure
to enjoy having access to all the sounds you expect from an organ.

Panel layout based on a tradition of emphasis on realtime operation
Based on the idea that you should be able to sit down and begin playing immediately, the operation buttons of the panel
are arranged by function as dictated by classic organ traditions, ensuring easy and intuitive operation. All models of the
ATELIER series feature the same operability, allowing you to start playing immediately even if you switch models.

High-quality sounds that you can use without editing
In addition to a full range of organ sounds, high-quality sounds such as strings and brass are also included onboard. You
can simply select sounds and enjoy playing the organ—no need to perform complicated editing operations.

Expansive lower keyboard with damper pedal for piano-like expressiveness
Piano is indispensable to the performance of contemporary music. On the ATELIER series, the lower keyboard features an
expanded range that gives you the expressive power of a piano. The keyboard also features half-damper pedal capability
and initial touch sensitivity, both indispensable for piano performance.
All models provide high-quality grand piano sounds.

Design utilizes your existing music data
The ATELIER series is designed so that even on new models, you will feel right at home and can begin playing
immediately. Data compatibility has also been carefully taken into account, and song data or registration data from earlier
models can be used without change.

Music styles from around the world
Many of the best-loved musical styles from around the world (rhythm and automatic accompaniment patterns) are built
in, allowing you to enjoy an international range of performances.

Utilizes SMF music files
Compatible with GM2, the world standard in SMF music files, and equipped with its own floppy disk drive, the ATELIER
brings you access to the wealth of SMF music files available on the market. You can also mute parts, allowing you to
practice the part for each hand separately, and enjoy performing ensemble with the music files.

RSS reverb technology is used to create a high-quality ambience that surrounds the listener
(AT-80SL)
The AT-80SL provides an AUX OUT for RSS Ambience, allowing you to enjoy very high quality RSS reverb sound. In
addition, a speaker is built into the panel, ensuring that the performer will also enjoy the exceptional sound quality.

Highly Realistic Rhythms and Automatic Accompaniment Functions
All rhythms use data from performances by professional drummers, featuring high-quality patterns with all the grooves
and subtle nuance of the real thing. In addition, you can use automatic accompaniments that are perfectly matched to each
rhythm to enjoy the feeling of playing with your own band in the background.

Active Expression sounds
For some of the sounds, moving the expression pedal will vary not only the volume but also the tone, or add other sounds.
From pianissimo to fortissimo, the tonal character of the sound itself will change as you perform a crescendo, or strings
may appear behind the piano, creating dynamic changes in tonality.

“Music Assistant” and “Quick Registration” functions
The “Music Assistant” function makes it easy to recall appropriate rhythm and sound settings simply by selecting a
desired atmosphere for your song. The “Quick Registration” function lets you use keywords to select wonderful
registrations created by top-ranking organists such as Hector Olivera.

Human voices and phrases
In addition to a full array of organ sounds, the ATELIER-S series provides human voices such as “Jazz Scat,” and human
voice phrases such as “Amen.”

Harmony Intelligence
The Harmony Intelligence function automatically adds harmony to the upper keyboard sound according to the chord you
play in the lower keyboard. This gives you greater tonal depth and a more powerful performance.

Rhythm Customize Function Lets You Arrange the Internal Rhythms
You can use the “Rhythm Customize” function to edit the internal rhythms, for example by adding a single cymbal at the
end or changing the drum tone in a pattern. You can also save edited rhythms to the instrument as well as to floppy disks.

76-note lower keyboard for plenty of range
The 76-note range can be split into zones, allowing a solo voice, pedal bass voice, percussion, etc., to be played
independently for an even wider range of performance possibilities. Since the lower keyboard can be divided into a
maximum of four parts, you have at your command expressive power that rivals that of a three-manual organ.
In addition, you can use the Drums/SFX function to play drum sounds or sound effects from the entire lower keyboard.

Newly developed jazz organ style footage sound generator (AT-80SL)
The AT-80SL features a new “digital harmonic bar” function that lets you adjust the volume of each footage. In addition to
the rich sounds of the ATELIER series, you can enjoy the versatile tonal expressions of a jazz organ.

Music score display in the LCD screen
The large LCD screen allows recorded data or loaded music data to be displayed as a musical score. You can enjoy the
convenience of playing from a score, or checking the score of a song you recorded.
Furthermore, the instrument features a color LCD panel for great visibility and comfortable operation.

■ Conventions Used in This Manual
This manual uses the following conventions in the interest of simpler, more concise instructions.

• Button names are enclosed in square brackets (“[ ]”), as in [Harmony Intelligence] button.
• On screen text is enclosed in angled brackets “< >”, as in .
• [+] [-], [▲] [▼], [ ] [ ] means that you should press one or the other button.
Example: Value [-][+] buttons, Reverb [▲] [▼] buttons, Tempo [ ] [ ] buttons.
• The text incorporates AT-80SL screen shots and panel diagrams. Thus, there will be some
portions where the information differs from that for the AT-60SL.
• For easier readability, some screens and colors used here may differ in part from actual screens
and colors.
• The act of lightly contacting the Touch Screen with your finger is called “touching.”
• An asterisk (*) or a NOTE at the beginning of a paragraph indicates a note or precaution. These
should not be ignored.
• (p. **) refers to pages within the manual.

Using a Microphone

Turning On the Lights (AT-80SL)

The AT-80SL/60SL is equipped with a Mic jack.
Since this instrument has a Mic In jack, you can use a
microphone to enjoy a variety of possibilities such as singing
along with your performance, or singing along with SMF
music files (sold separately).

After turning on the power, turn on the [Illumination] switch
(located underneath the left-hand side of the keyboard).
fig. 00-33

fig.00-32

Illumination
The panel illumination of the instrument will light.

Cautions When Using Illumination
fig.00-31

1. Connect your microphone to the [Mic In] jack
underneath the left side of the keyboard.

2. Use the [Mic Volume] knob to adjust the volume
level for the microphone.

When the illumination is used for an extended period, the
light bulbs and the metal parts near the light bulb (see
diagram below) will become hot. Be careful not to touch
these areas. In particular, be careful of the following
locations.

1. Panel illumination light bulb
You can adjust the depth of the echo applied to sound from
the microphone (p. 194).

The microphone must be purchased separately. When
purchasing a microphone, please consult the vender where
you bought the AT-80SL/60SL.

NOTE
(AT-80SL only)
If the Input switch is set to “RSS,” RSS reverb will be applied
to the sound from the microphone. You can use the [Mic
Volume] knob to adjust the microphone volume (p. 210).

Do not touch the light bulb or nearby parts. When
closing the lid, be sure to hold the handles.

2. Metal fittings of the cover
After closing the lid, do not touch this area.

The bulbs used for illumination can be replaced. For details
on replacing a bulb, refer to “Replacing the Illumination
Bulbs (AT-80SL Only)” (p. 251).
fig.00-35

Some Notes on Using a Microphone
fig.00-31

• To avoid disturbing others, be careful of the volume
level when playing late at night or very early in the
morning.
• When connecting a microphone to the AT-80SL/60SL, be
sure to lower the volume. If the volume control is too
high when the microphone is plugged in, noise may be
produced by the speakers.
• Howling could be produced depending on the location
of microphones relative to speakers. This can be
remedied by:
• Changing the orientation of the microphone.
• Relocating the microphone so it is farther from the
speakers.
• Lowering volume levels.

Playing Chords with Simple Fingering
“Chord Intelligence” is a feature that intelligently plays the correct
accompaniment chords the moment you play a key specifying a chord on
the Lower keyboard during Automatic Accompaniment.

For example, in order to make the instrument detect a “C Major” chord, you
must normally play the three keys “C,” “E,” and “G.” If you use the Chord
Intelligence function, you can simply press a single “C” key in the lower
keyboard to sound a C Major chord with the voice selected for the Lower
part.

For more information
about chord fingering, refer
to the “Chord List” (p.
247).

is off, all notes in that chord
will sound.
For example, if you press
the root “C” of the C major
chord in the lower
keyboard, the notes of the
C major chord “C,” “E,”
and “G” will be sounded
by the voice selected for the
lower part.

Chapter 3 Using the Registration Buttons
The AT-80SL/60SL allows you to store sound settings and panel settings in
the Registration buttons. The AT-80SL has a total of twelve registration
buttons (the AT-60SL has eight), and one set of panel settings can be
registered to each button, for a total of twelve types (eight types on the AT60SL) of panel settings. Each set of panel settings that has been stored in a
Registration button is called a “Registration.”

Settings that have been
stored to Registration
buttons [1]–[12] (on the AT60SL, Registration buttons
[1]–[8]) are remembered
even if the power is turned
off. If you wish to restore
the settings stored in the
Registration buttons to
their factory settings, use
the “Factory Reset”
operation (p. 23).

This provides a convenient way to change large numbers of panel settings
during a performance, or to recall a complex panel setting.

About the Registration Buttons
In addition to assigning voices and rhythms to the Registration buttons, you
can also store the following settings:
• Panel button settings (for example, settings for the Level [▲] [▼] buttons
and Solo [To Lower] button)
• Controller settings (functions assigned to foot switches, pitch bend
range, etc.)
• Other types of settings (reverb type, tempo settings, degree of initial
touch, etc.)
If you would like to know all of the settings that can be recorded to the
Registration buttons, refer to “Settings That Are Stored After the Power
Is Turned Off” (p. 255).
Furthermore, you can group the settings assigned to the Registration
buttons as a single set, and then register and save up to a maximum of 99
sets onto a single floppy disk (p. 98).
In addition to the settings recorded to the Registration buttons, the
following data is also saved when Registration sets are saved to floppy
disks.
• Registration Name →p. 94
• Registration Shift →p. 119
• Arranger Update →p. 92
• Trans. Update (Transpose Update) →p. 190
• Exp. Curve (Expression Curve) →p. 121

Recorded performance data
and rhythms from User
memory are not stored in
Registration sets.
When a rhythm saved in
User memory is assigned to
a Registration set, that
rhythm is copied
beforehand to the User
memory.

Chapter 3 Using the Registration Buttons

Procedure for Creating Registration Sets
You can change voice and other panel settings by pressing the Registration
buttons during performance of songs.
Prepare the Registrations
A convenient way to make the sequence of Registration buttons to be
pressed easy to understand is to store the panel settings starting from the
Registration [1] button, continuing with subsequent buttons in accordance
with the progression of the song.
Save the Registrations to the floppy disk
If you want to use more than eight Registrations in a song, save the settings
for Registration buttons [1]–[12] (on the AT-60SL, Registration buttons [1]–
[8]) to a floppy disk as a set, then continue to store further panel settings
again, starting from Registration button [1]. Save all of the Registration sets
you have set to the floppy disk.
Arrange the Registrations in the sequence they are to be used
Save the Registration sets to the floppy disk in the order they are to be used
in the song. You can use the Disk Edit function (p. 110) to alter the sequence
and names of rhythms contained on the floppy disk (p. 94) as well as delete
such rhythms (p. 108).

Using Registration Sets
Call up the Registration sets saved on the floppy disk to the AT-80SL/
60SL
Insert the floppy disk containing the saved Registration sets into the disk
drive, and read the Registration sets into the AT-80SL/60SL.
Switch the Registration sets as you perform
Press the Registration buttons to switch Registrations as you play the song.
To call up the next Registration Set, press the [Load Next] button, then press
the Registration buttons.

Storing Registrations

You can also assign the
“Right + Load Next” to the
foot switch and use it to
call up subsequent
Registration sets (p. 119).

Formatting Disks
Before any floppy disk (new or used) can be used with the AT-80SL/60SL it
must first be formatted (prepared).
Formatting a floppy disk erases all information stored on the disk, and puts
it in a format that is acceptable for the device in which it will be used. If a
floppy disk is in a format that doesn’t match the format of this unit, you
won’t be able to use that floppy disk.

Make sure that the write protect tab of the floppy disk is in
the “Write” (permit) position.

Earlier Model
Registrations that were created on the ATELIER series (AT-90/80/30) or
ATELIER-R series (AT-90R/80R/60R/30R/20R) can be used on the AT80SL/60SL.
When using a set of registrations that was created on the AT-90/80/60
models, your registrations will be converted to work in the AT-80SL/60SL
models and loaded into internal memory. When loading these registrations
the music style that was originally used can also be loaded into the [Disk/
User] button to complete the accurate reproduction of the original
registration.

This operation is not
necessary when recalling a

[Master Volume] slider to the Min (Minimum) position.
• Even as you release your foot from the expression pedal and lower the
volume, the lower-range portion will linger on. This provides a naturalsounding resonance.
• When an Active Expression voice is selected, the expression pedal can
be used to produce changes in the voice (p. 49).

Chapter 6 Using the Lower Keyboard Effectively
Making Effective Use of the Lower Keyboard
Since the lower keyboard of the AT-80SL/60SL provides a generous 76
notes, you can use it to play piano pieces with ease. In addition, you can
divide the keyboard into two or more sections and play solo voices, play the
pedal bass voice, or combine a variety of uses for even more versatility.
For example, the following applications are possible.

Using the Lower Keyboard to Play the Solo Voice
• Press the Solo [To Lower] button in the Solo section to Play the Solo voice to the Lower

Playing the Solo Voice on the Lower
Keyboard (Solo [To Lower] Button)
Normally, the solo voice will sound on the upper keyboard.
By using the Solo [To Lower] button, you can play the solo voice in the righthand side of the lower keyboard that includes the B4 key. The state in which
the keyboard is divided in this way is called “split,” and the location at
which the keyboard is divided to play the solo voice in the lower keyboard
is called the “Solo Split Point.”

The key used for the solo
split point is included in
the Solo voice range.

button in the Rec/Play screen. In the same manner, the
rhythm performance data is grouped to “Rhythm.”

Never eject a disk while reading or writing is in progress,
since that can damage the magnetic surface of the disk,
rendering it unusable. (The disk drive’s indicator will light
up at full brightness when the drive is busy reading or
writing data. Ordinarily, the indicator will be less brightly lit,
or be extinguished.)

Some notes on a Score screen

fig.07-

• When you start playback of music files, the marks
appears. While this appears on the notation, the AT80SL/60SL is reading data. Please wait until reading of
the data is complete.
• In the Notation screen, some lyrics or notes could extend
beyond the edges of the screen, and not be displayed.

When you touch , the following screen appears.
fig.07-

• The notations that are presented by the display are
produced based on the music files. Viewing ease is given
priority over precise expression when dealing with
complex, high-level music. Because of this, you may find
that the notation shown in the display does not match
what is provided on commercially available sheet music.
The notation display feature is particularly unsuitable
for the display of difficult, complex musical works that
demand accurate notation. In addition, the display
cannot show notes that are briefer than a sixteenth note.
• If you select a part that does not contain performance
data, notes will not be displayed in the notation. Use
