6 IMPORTANT NOTES 291b In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on pages 2, 3, 4 and 5, 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. 306b • Batteries are supplied with the unit. The life of these batteries may be limited, however, since their primary purpose was to enable testing. 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 and readily acces-sible. 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 inter-ference. 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 initi-ating 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. 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. 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 (revise) •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.• 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. 402 • Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation. 403 • The pedals of this unit are made of brass.\nBrass 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 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 USB memory, 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.RG-7_e.book 6 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
7IMPORTANT NOTES Automatic Keyboard Add •While the automatic keyboard is in operation, avoid doing anything that could hamper the action of the keys, such as using undue force to press a key, or forcing up a depressed key. By doing so, you risk causing malfunction. 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 USB memory. 552 •Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored on a USB memory and internal memory 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. 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 shock-absorbent 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 infor-mation on cable specifications, contact the manufac-turer of the cable. 565 • Before opening or closing the keyboard lid, always make sure that no pets or other small animals are located on top of the instrument (in particular, they should be kept away from the keyboard and its lid). Otherwise, due to the structural design of this instrument, small pets or other animals could end up getting trapped inside it. If such a situation is encountered, you must immediately switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the outlet. You should then consult with the retailer from whom the instrument was purchased, or contact the nearest Roland Service Center. Before Using USB Memory Using USB Memory 704 (revised) •When connecting USB memory, make sure to press it until it is fully inserted. 705 (revised) • Never touch the terminals of the USB memory. Also, avoid getting the terminals dirty. 708 (revised) • USB memories are constructed using precision compo-nents; handle the cards carefully, paying particular note to the following.• To prevent damage to the cards from static electricity, be sure to discharge any static electricity from your own body before handling the cards.• Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact with the contact portion of the cards.• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong shock or vibration.•Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed vehicles, or other such locations (storage temperature: 0 to 50˚ C).• Do not allow cards to become wet.• Do not disassemble or modify the cards. Add • Insert the USB memory in the Ext Memory port evenly and without undue force. Forcing the USB memory may damage the Ext Memory port.

9 Introduction Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland RG-7 Digital Grand Piano.The RG-7 is sure to be highly appreciated, not only for the authentic piano performances it offers, but also for its extensive selection of player piano 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 ensures that you can use the pedal freely without running out of notes. Roland Digital Grand Brings Refinement to Interior Style The RG-7 exhibits elegance in form with a beautiful black, mirror-like surface. With features just like those found on an acoustic grand, such as a lid that opens and closes and retractable music rest, this instrument is a perfect match for lounge or living room.The simple, modern, and stylish panel design makes switching tones and making settings a snap. Full Complement of Player Piano Functions The RG-7 comes programmed with song data in jazz and classical styles. You can also use the CD drive to play back a wide variety of music on the CD included with the instrument as well as songs on CD-ROMs containing saved SMF files, player piano CDs, and audio CDs. Moreover, you can add song data by copying songs saved on USB memory and CD-ROMs to the RG-7’s “Favorites.”The RG-7 includes a “Moving Key” function, which plays the keys along with the song, providing exquisite performances that are played automatically.Also included is a convenient remote control you can use for selecting songs, adjusting volume, switching the Moving Key function on and off simply and easily. You can connect an external display or television set to the RG-7 for enlarged displays of the Song Select screen, karaoke screen (lyrics screen), notation, and even slide shows. Instrument Endowed with Superior Basic Functions The RG-7 uses the progressive hammer action keyboard, which reproduces the touch of a grand piano, with a heavier feel in the lower registers and a lighter, quicker response in the upper registers. This keyboard also accurately reproduces the distinctive clicking feel that occurs when the keys are played gently (escapement mechanism).The instrument further is equipped with highly responsive pedals, which lend even greater expressive detail to your performances.The RG-7 also is programmed with 20 carefully selected performance tones, including two types of grand piano tones, which you can select according to your own taste. What’s more, the settings for the “key touch,” “hammer response,” and other precision tone adjustment settings that performers demand can be stored in the RG-7 itself.On top of this, a newly designed sound system puts the focus on the sound of the piano to achieve a luscious, natural piano sound.RG-7_e.book 9 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
10Introduction Professional-Level Features and Specifications The instrument features a lid lock to prevent unauthorized operation of the controls or keys while the Moving Key function is in use, and an Ext Memory port lock to prevent theft of connected USB memory.Since the RG-7 is a digital instrument, it has no strings and therefore requires no tuning.You can connect an external display or television to the piano to run slide shows using whatever images you prefer and, with a microphone connected, you can add echo and harmonies to microphone vocals and use the Transformer function to change the sound of the vocals. Connect External Speakers to Produce Concert Hall Presence You can connect an amp and speakers to the RG-7 and play the sounds of the reverb and accompaniment through the external speakers to produce the effect of being enveloped by an orchestra. The RG-7 is equipped with XLR connectors, a very convenient feature when the instrument is used on stage. ■ 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 [Moving Key] button.• An asterisk (*) or a at the beginning of a paragraph indicates a note or precaution.

This setting makes it easy to play, even for children.Increasing the value gives the instrument a heavier key touch. Fortissimo (ff) cannot be produced unless you play more strongly than usual, making the keyboard feel heavier. Dynamic fingering adds even more feeling to what you play.A value of around 65 provides a standard setting, producing the most natural touch. This is the closest to the touch of an acoustic piano.RG-7_e.book 55 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
56Chapter 3. Performance ■ Changing the Timing of Sounds According to the Force Used to Press the Keys (Hammer Response) This adjusts how your playing strength will affect the timing at which the note sounds. This is called the “Hammer Response” function.On an acoustic piano, pressing a key moves a hammer, which strikes a string to produce sound. If you press the key softly, the hammer will move slowly, meaning that it will take slightly longer (in comparison to a strongly-played note) from the moment you press the key until the sound is produced.If the Hammer Response function is turned on, the time between the moment you press a key until the sound is heard will change depending on the strength with which you play. As you play more softly, this time will become longer. 1 Press the [Function] (Exit) button, getting its indicator to light. 2 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to display the KEY TOUCH screen. fig. 3 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to get the value for “Hammer” to flash. fig. 4 Press the [ ] (Value -) or [ ] (Value +) button to change the value. 5 Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator goes out. Value DescriptionLight The response is faster when the keys are pressed gently. Medium The regular timing is used when the keys are pressed gently. Heavy The timing of the sounds is delayed when the keys are pressed gently. Off The Hammer Response function is cancelled.The sound is played immediately, regardless of the force with which the keys are played (velocity).You can save this setting in the RG-7’s memory using the Memory Backup function (p. 72).RG-7_e.book 56 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分

60Chapter 3. Performance ■ Adjusting the Sound to Achieve the Preferred Tone Quality (Equalizer) The RG-7 features a built-in, three-band digital equalizer.An equalizer boosts or cuts specific sound pitches (frequency ranges) to adjust the sound balance for the overall performance. For example, you can boost the highs to get a crisper sound, or boost the low end for a more powerful sound.You can also adjust the sound to compensate for the acoustical characteristics of the performance space.If raising the values for separate frequencies causes the sound to distort, you can use the “Master Level” (see below) to control such distortion. 1 Press the [Function] (Exit) button, getting its indicator to light. 2 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to display the EQUALIZER screen. fig. 3 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button so that the value for the range you want to set is flashing. fig. 4 Press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button to adjust the range and the overall level. Value: -60 – 0 – +60 5 Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator goes out. Value DescriptionMaster (Master Level) You can temper the distortion in the sound by lowering the level. Raising the level too much may cause the sound to become distorted. L (Low) Low-frequency range. This is the range of frequencies for instruments like drums, bass, organ, guitar and strings. M (Middle) Midrange. This is the range of frequencies where most instrument sounds are concentrated. H (High) High-frequency range. These frequencies add brilliance to the sound.You can save this setting in the RG-7’s memory using the Memory Backup function (p. 72).RG-7_e.book 60 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
61Chapter 3. Performance Changing the Pitch of the Keyboard Sound (Transpose) By using the “Transpose function,” you can transpose your performance without changing the notes you play. For example, even if the song is in a difficult key with numerous sharps ( ) or flats ( ), you can transpose it to a key that is easier for you to play. When accompanying a vocalist, you can easily transpose the pitch to a range that is comfortable for the singer, while still playing the notes as written (i.e., with the same fingering positions). 1. Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator is lit. 2. Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to display the TRANSPOSE screen. fig. 3. Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to get the value for “Link” to flash. fig. 4. Press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button to switch the Link setting to “On.” 5. Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to get the value for “Keyboard/Playback” to flash. fig. 6 Press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button to select the transposition value. The keyboard is transposed by a semitone each time you press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button. Pressing the [ ] (Value -) and [ ] (Value +) buttons simultaneously returns the setting to the original value (0).This can be set in a range of -6–0–+5 (semitone steps).When Link is set to “Off,” you can transpose the song and the notes from the keyboard separately.

Performance Cancelling the Transpose Function 1 Press the [ ] (Value -) and [ ] (Value +) buttons simultaneously to select “0.” Tuning to Other Instruments’ Pitches (Master Tuning) In situations such as when playing ensemble with other instruments, you can tune the RG-7’s standard pitch to the pitch of another instrument. The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you finger the middle A key. This tuning of all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “tuning.” 1 Press the [Function] (Exit) button, getting its indicator to light. 2 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to display the TUNE screen. fig. 3 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to get the value for the Master Tuning setting to flash. fig. 4 Press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button to change the standard pitch. Value 415.3 Hz–440.0 Hz–466.2 Hz This is set to “440.0” when the power to the RG-7 is switched on. 5 Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator goes out.Example: Playing a song in E major while playing the keys for C majorIn this example, C is the root note in the key of C major. E, the root of E major, is the third in C major. It is up four keys, including the black keys, so touch, then enter “4” for the setting.fig.If you play C E G It will sound E G# BYou can save this setting in the RG-7’s memory using the Memory Backup function (p. 72).RG-7_e.book 62 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
63Chapter 3. Performance Setting the Tuning Curve (Stretch Tuning) Pianos are generally tuned so that the low range is flatter and the high range is sharper than equal tempered pitches. This method of tuning is unique to the piano, and is known as “stretched tuning.”A graph that shows the changes in pitch of actual tuning compared with the changes in equal temperament pitch is called a tuning curve. Changing the tuning curve produces subtle variations in the reverberations of the chords you play. 1 Press the [Function] (Exit) button, getting its indicator to light. 2 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to display the TUNE screen. fig. 3 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to get the value for “Stretch” to flash. fig. 4 Press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button to change the Stretch Tuning setting. This is set to “2” when the power to the RG-7 is switched on. 5 Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator goes out. Value Description1 This is the standard tuning curve. It is suitable when playing in an ensemble with other instruments. 2 This tuning curve expands the bass and treble ends somewhat. It is suitable for performances such as piano solos.You can save this setting in the RG-7’s memory using the Memory Backup function (p. 72).RG-7_e.book 63 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
64Chapter 3. Performance Changing the Tuning You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic temperaments (tuning methods).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. 1 Press the [Function] (Exit) button, getting its indicator to light. 2 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to display the TUNE screen. fig. 3 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to get the Temperament setting to flash. fig. 4 Press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button to select the temperament. Display QualitiesEqual In this tuning, each octave is divided into twelve equal steps. Every interval produces about the same amount of slight dissonance. Just(Maj) 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. Just(min) The Just tunings differ from major and minor keys. You can get the same effect with the minor scale as with the major scale. Kirnberger This is an improvement of the Mean Tone and Just tunings that provides a high degree of freedom of modulation. Performances are possible in all keys (III). Pythagorean This tuning, devised by the philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and fifths. Dissonance is produced by third-interval chords, but melodies are euphonious. Mean Tone This scale makes some compromises in just intonation, enabling transposition to other keys.You can save this setting in the RG-7’s memory using the Memory Backup function (p. 72).RG-7_e.book 64 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
65Chapter 3. Performance When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the tonic note 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). 5 Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator goes out. ■ Setting the Tonic When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the tonic note 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).If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to select a tonic note. 1 Press the [Function] (Exit) button, getting its indicator to light. 2 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to display the TUNE screen. fig. 3 Press the [Song] (Select -) button or [ ] (Select +) button to get the value for “Key” to flash. fig. 4 Press the [ ] (Value -) button or [ ] (Value +) button to select the tonic. fig.Chart_note2.j 5 Press the [Function] (Exit) button so the indicator goes out. Werckmeister This temperament combines the Mean Tone and Pythagorean tunings. Performances are possible in all keys (first technique, III). Arabic This tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia.

Spacious LocationLocation Limited in Space Connecting MIDI Devices By connecting an external MIDI device and exchanging performance data, you can control one device from the other. For instance, you can output sound from the other instrument or switch Tones on the other instrument. ■ What’s MIDI? MIDI, short for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface,” was developed as a universal standard for the exchange of performance data between electronic instruments and computers.The RG-7 is equipped with MIDI connectors to let it exchange performance data with external devices. These connectors can be used to connect the RG-7 to an external device for even greater versatility. *A separate publication titled “MIDI Implementation” is also available. It provides complete details concerning the way MIDI has been implemented on this unit. If you should require this publication (such as when you intend to carry out byte-level programming), please contact the nearest Roland Service Center or authorized Roland distributor. ■ Connectors MIDI Out Connector Connect this to the MIDI In connector on an external MIDI device using a MIDI cable (sold separately). Performance data when you play the keyboard or depress a pedal is sent from this connector to the external MIDI connector. MIDI In Connector Connect this to the MIDI Out connector on an external MIDI device using a MIDI cable (sold separately).This receives MIDI messages that are sent from external MIDI devices. The RG-7 receiving MIDI messages can output sounds, exchange tones and perform other operations. *External MIDI devices can’t be used for remotely changing the Tones played by the RG-7’s keyboard.Piano SoundSurroundSoundSurroundSoundSurroundSoundSurroundSoundLLRRMixerSpeaker SpeakerSpeaker SpeakerPiano SoundSurroundSoundSurroundSoundSurroundSoundSurroundSoundLRSpeaker SpeakerRG-7_e.book 99 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分

The MIDI device that receives the Program Number changes the tone to the corresponding Program Number.Normally, the Tone is selected from the 128 Tones available. Some MIDI devices, however, have more than 128 Tones. With such devices, the Tone is selected through a combination of Program Change messages and Bank Select messages. There are two parts of a Bank Select message: the MSB (Controller 0, with a value of 0–127) and the LSB (Controller 32, with a value of 0–127). * Some MIDI instruments can’t handle Bank Select messages. Others can handle Bank Selects, but do not recognize the LSB part.(1)MIDIMIDIMIDIMIDI(2)ININ OUTOUTSequencerMemorySoundGeneratorEach note played is sounded twice Soft Tru OnLocal OnLocal OnSound is emittedSound GeneratorLocal OffNo sound producedSound Generator Value DescriptionOn Local Control is switched on.

104 Troubleshooting If you think there’s a problem, read this first. Case Cause/Remedy The power doesn’t come onIs the power cord connected and plugged in correctly? (p. 19)Depressing a pedal has no effect, or the pedal effect doesn’t stopIs the pedal connected correctly?Make sure the pedal cord is securely connected to the pedal connector (p. 19).Has a different function been assigned to the pedal? See “Assigning Functions to Pedals” (p. 69).The volume level of the instrument connected to Input jacks is too lowCould you be using a connection cable that contains a resistor? Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.Low hum coming from external deviceDo you have different external devices plugged into different power outlets?When connecting external devices, always draw power from the same outlet.Unable to load properly with USB memoryIs the USB memory you are using one that was produced by Roland?Performance is not guaranteed when other types of USB memory are used.Volume of microphone changesThe microphone volume may change if the [Volume] button is adjusted while the Vocal Effect is on. The microphone volume does not change when the Vocal Effect is switched off. Connected Television or External Display Screen Looks Odd Images not shown on external display or television when external display or television is connectedIs the external display or television properly connected? (p. 47, p. 49)Is the external display’s power turned on?Are you using a display that is compatible with the RG-7?Refer to “Displays That Can Be Connected to This Instrument” (p. 47).Is the television format or display setting correct? (p. 47, p. 49)Thin horizontal lines visible in the television screenWhile narrow horizontal lines may be visible in the television screen, this is a particular characteristic of the television set and does not indicate any problem with the RG-7.Poor-quality of images displayed in televisionEven when all recommended settings are used, images may still not be displayed well with the television set you are using (images may not match the screen size, and may be clustered towards the center of the screen). No sound is heard No sound is heardIs the volume level of the RG-7 (p. 20) or connected device turned all the way down?Are headphones plugged in? (p. 21)Has a plug remained connected to the Phones jack?When headphones or plugs are connected, the keyboard’s speaker stops playing.Could the keyboard volume be turned down completely in the volume balance settings? (p. 71)Could the levels of all frequency ranges be turned down completely in the equalizer settings? (p. 60)Is V-LINK switched on?While V-LINK is switched on, no sound is produced when you press any of the twelve keys at the left end of the keyboard (p. 92).No sound is heard (when a MIDI instrument is connected)Have all devices been switched on?Are the MIDI cables connected correctly? (p. 99)Does the MIDI channel match the connected instrument? (p. 100)No sound is heard when the keyboard is playedHas Local Control been set to “Off”?When Local Control is set to Off, no sound is produced by playing the keyboard. Set Local Control to On (p. 101).Not all played notes are soundedThe maximum number of notes can play simultaneously is 128. Frequent use of the damper pedal during playing along with a song may result in performance data with too many notes, causing some notes to drop out. The sound is strange Sounds are heard twice (doubled) when the keyboard is playedDo you have the Layer tone selected? (p. 54)When the RG-7 is connected to an external sequencer, set it to the Local Off mode (p. 101). Alternatively, the sequencer could be set so its Soft Thru feature is Off.The tuning or pitch of the keyboard or song is offHave you set transpose? (p. 38, p. 61)Are the settings for the “Temperament” and “Stretch Tuning” correct? (p. 63, p. 64)Is the setting for the “Master Tune” correct? (p. 62) Case Cause/RemedyRG-7_e.book 104 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
105 Reverberation still audible even with Reverb turned offSince the RG-7’s piano sounds accurately reproduce the depth and reverberation of the original acoustic piano, you may find that reverberation is audible when the Key Off function is enabled.If you want to eliminate the reverberation, turn off the Key Off function (p. 57).In the upper range, the sound changes abruptly beyond a certain keyOn an acoustic piano, notes in the upper one and a half octaves of the keyboard continue to sound until they decay naturally, regardless of the damper pedal. There is a difference in the timbre as well. Roland pianos faithfully simulate such characteristics of the acoustic piano. On the RG-7, the range that is unaffected by the damper pedal will change depending on the Key Transpose setting.A High-pitched whine is producedWhen listening through headphones: Some of the more flamboyant and effervescent piano tones feature an ample high-end component, which may make the sound appear to have metallic reverberation added. Since this reverberation becomes particularly audible when supplemented by heavy reverb, you may be able to diminish the problem by reducing the amount of reverb applied to the sound.When listening through speakers: Here, a different cause (such as resonance produced by the RG-7) would be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center.The bass range sounds odd, or there is a vibrating resonanceWhen listening through speakers: Playing at loud volumes may cause instruments near the RG-7 to resonate. Resonation can also occur with fluorescent light tubes, glass doors, and other objects. In particular, this problem occurs more easily when the bass component is increased, and when the sound is played at higher volumes. Use the following measures to suppress such resonance. o Place speakers so they are 10-15 cm from walls and other surfaces. o Reduce the volume. o Move the speakers away from any resonating objects. When listening through headphones: Here, a different cause (such as resonance produced by the RG-7) would be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center. Case Cause/RemedySong doesn’t play back correctly Song doesn’t play backDoes the screen indicate message, like “Delete User Song OK?” (p. 75). The internal songs cannot be played back while recorded performance data remains in the RG-7’s memory. Erase the performance data or play back the song after saving to the “Favorites” or to your USB memory.Pressing the [] button doesn’t return to the beginning of the songSome music files may contain settings that stop play at a point partway through the song. Press the [ ] button several times more to return to the beginning of the tune.The [ ] and [] buttons don’t workThe fast-forward and reverse buttons are ignored while music files is being read in. Wait until processing finishes.Accompaniment not playingIs the accompaniment volume turned down in the volume balance settings? (p. 71) Can’t record The recorded performance has disappearedAny performance that has been recorded is deleted when the power to the RG-7 is turned off or a song is selected. A performance cannot be restored once it’s been deleted. Be sure to save it on a USB memory or User Memory before you turn off the power (p. 92).Unable to play back songsCould you have pressed the remote control’s [MUTE] button and muted the sound? Press the [MUTE] button to cancel the mute (p. 35).Moving Key not workingCould the [Moving Key] indicator be extinguished?Press the [Moving Key] button so its indicator is lit.If using the Moving Key function, which part’s performance is the Moving Key function assigned to play (p. 88)?Does the part to be played with the Moving Key function contain performance data?If a part containing no performance data is selected, the keys will not move when the song is played back. When running Moving Keys for a performance recorded with the RG-7, select Part 1. Case Cause/RemedyRG-7_e.book 105 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分

110 Music Files That the RG-7 Can Use What Are Music Files? Music files contains musical information such as how long the key for a corresponding pitch is played, the force applied to the key played, and other such information. Performance data is transmitted to the RG-7 from music files saved in USB memory and played back without change as songs. This is different than a audio CD, since the music file does not contain a recording of the sound itself. This makes it possible to erase certain parts, or to change instruments, tempos and keys freely, allowing you to use it in many different ways. Regarding Copyright Use of the song data supplied with the Data Disk attached to this product for any purpose other than private, personal enjoyment without the permission of the copyright holder is prohibited by law. Additionally, this data must not be copied, nor used in a secondary copyrighted work without the permission of the copyright holder. ■ The RG-7 allows you to use the following music files SMF with Lyrics “SMF with Lyrics” refers to SMF (Standard MIDI File) that contains the lyrics. When Music Files carrying the “SMF with Lyrics” logo are played back on a compatible device (one bearing the same logo), the lyrics will appear in its display. The RG-7 come equipped with GM 2/GS sound generators. ■ About the RG-7 Sound Generator The RG-8 come equipped with GM 2/GS sound generators. General MIDI The General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks to provide a way to go beyond the limitations of proprietary designs, and standardize the MIDI capabilities of sound generating devices. Sound generating devices and music files that meets the General MIDI standard bears the General MIDI logo. Music files bearing the General MIDI logo can be played back using any General MIDI sound generating unit to produce essentially the same musical performance. General MIDI 2 The upwardly compatible General MIDI 2 recommendations pick up where the original General MIDI left off, offering enhanced expressive capabilities, and even greater compatibility. Issues that were not covered by the original General MIDI recommendations, such as how sounds are to be edited, and how effects should be handled, have now been precisely defined. Moreover, the available sounds have been expanded. General MIDI 2 compliant sound generators are capable of reliably playing back music files that carry either the General MIDI or General MIDI 2 logo. In some cases, the conventional form of General MIDI, which does not include the new enhancements, is referred to as “General MIDI 1” as a way of distinguishing it from General MIDI 2. GS Format The GS Format is Roland’s set of specifications for standardizing the performance of sound generating devices. In addition to including support for everything defined by the General MIDI, the highly compatible GS Format additionally offers an expanded number of sounds, provides for the editing of sounds, and spells out many details for a wide range of extra features, including effects such as reverb and chorus. Designed with the future in mind, the GS Format can readily include new sounds and support new hardware features when they arrive. Since it is upwardly compatible with the General MIDI, Roland’s GS Format is capable of reliably playing back GM Scores equally as well as it performs GS music files (music files that have been created with the GS Format in mind). This product supports both the General MIDI 2 and the GS Format, and can be used to play back music data carrying either of these logos. XG lite XG is a tone generator format of YAMAHA Corporation, that defines the ways in which voices are expanded or edited and the structure and type of effects, in addition to the General MIDI 1 specification. XGlite is a simplified version of XG tone generation format. You can play back any XG music files using an XGlite tone generator. However, keep in mind that some music files may play back differently compared to the original files, due to the reduced set of control parameters and effects.RG-7_e.book 110 ページ ２００５年２月１４日　月曜日　午前９時４５分
