..........................................................................................................
003

• Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts
within it (except when this manual provides
specific instructions directing you to do so). Refer
all servicing to your retailer, the nearest Roland
Service Center, or an authorized Roland
distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.
..........................................................................................................
004

• Never use or store the unit in places that are:
• Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct
sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating
duct, on top of heat-generating equipment); or
are

damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
..........................................................................................................

..........................................................................................................
009

• Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord,
nor place heavy objects on it. Doing so can
damage the cord, producing severed elements and
short circuits. Damaged cords are fire and shock
hazards!
..........................................................................................................
010

• This unit, either alone or in combination with an
amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be
capable of producing sound levels that could
cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for
a long period of time at a high volume level, or at
a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience
any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should
immediately stop using the unit, and consult an
audiologist.
..........................................................................................................
011

..........................................................................................................

013

108d: Selection

• In households with small children, an adult
should provide supervision until the child is
capable of following all the rules essential for the
safe operation of the unit.
..........................................................................................................

• If you need to move the instrument, take note of
the precautions listed below. At least two persons
are required to safely lift and move the unit. It
should be handled carefully, all the while keeping
it level. Make sure to have a firm grip, to protect
yourself from injury and the instrument from
damage.

014

• Protect the unit from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)
..........................................................................................................
015

• Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to share
an outlet with an unreasonable number of other
devices. Be especially careful when using
extension cords—the total power used by all
devices you have connected to the extension
cord’s outlet must never exceed the power rating
(watts/amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive
loads can cause the insulation on the cord to heat
up and eventually melt through.
..........................................................................................................
016

• Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult
with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service
Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as
listed on the “Information” page.

• Disconnect all cords coming from external
devices.
• Remove the music stand.
..........................................................................................................
109b

• Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and
unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet (p. 8).
..........................................................................................................
110b

• Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning
in your area, disconnect the AC adaptor from the
outlet.
..........................................................................................................

101b

• The unit and the AC adaptor should be located so
their location or position does not interfere with
their proper ventilation.
..........................................................................................................
102c

• Always grasp only the plug on the AC adaptor
cord when plugging into, or unplugging from, an
outlet or this unit.
..........................................................................................................
103b

• At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC
adaptor and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe
all dust and other accumulations away from its
prongs. Also, disconnect the power plug from the
power outlet whenever the unit is to remain
unused for an extended period of time. Any
accumulation of dust between the power plug and
the power outlet can result in poor insulation and
lead to fire.
..........................................................................................................
104

• Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming
entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be
placed so they are out of the reach of children.
..........................................................................................................
106

• Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on
the unit.
..........................................................................................................
107c

• Never handle the AC adaptor or its plugs with
wet hands when plugging into, or unplugging
from, an outlet or this unit.

IMPORTANT NOTES
291a

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

Power Supply

Maintenance

301

401a

• Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric
motor or variable lighting system).

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth
or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To
remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a
mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe
the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.

302

• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long
hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a
cause for concern.
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.

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.

402

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

Additional Precautions
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.
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.
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).
559a

• 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.
560

354a

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

• 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.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.

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

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.

562

• 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.

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.

Main Features of the ep-90/70
Authentic piano performances
High-quality concert grand piano sounds, and a keyboard that’s a true pleasure to play
assure an even more realistic piano-playing experience.

• Captures the brilliant resonance
The sound of a grand piano has a more brilliant timbre than that of an upright piano.
This is because the sound of a grand piano contains a greater amount of high-frequency
components. The piano sounds of the ep-90/70 reproduce this characteristic of the grand
piano.

• Reproduces the extended high-frequency response
One of the features of the acoustic piano is that for the approximately one and a half
octaves at the top of the range, there is no damper to restrict the vibration of the strings.
This allows the vibration of the string to continue whether or not the damper pedal is
pressed. Since this also allows these strings to vibrate sympathetically with other strings,
they can sometimes be heard sounding independently from the low and middle-register
strings.
The ep-90/70 faithfully simulates these characteristics of the acoustic piano.

Eight Tones for use in a wide variety of musical genres
The ep-90/70 features not only piano tones, but eight different internal tones that you
can use in a variety of musical genres.

Three Metronome sounds
The ep-90/70 provides a metronome that lets you use three different sounds. You can
easily adjust the tempo and time.

Record your own performances
The ep-90/70 makes it easy to record your own performances.

Adding Reverberation to the Sound—Reverb
Effect
The ep-90/70 allows you to add reverberation to what you play on the keyboard.
With the Reverb Effect, you can get a pleasant reverberation, making it sound as if you
were performing in a concert hall or similar space.
The settings of the Reverb Effect cannot be memorized independently for each sound.
When the power is turned on, the Reverb Effect will be cancelled.

About MIDI
MIDI, short for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface,” was
developed as a standard for the exchange of performance
data between electronic instruments and computers.
The ep-90/70 is equipped with MIDI connectors to allow
such exchange of performance data with external equipment
and devices. Connecting the keyboard to other devices with
these jacks provides you with an even greater variety of
ways to use your keyboard.

3. Use MIDI cable (sold separately) to connect
the MIDI connector on the external MIDI
device to the MIDI connector on the ep-90/
70.
Take a look at the connection examples.

4. As necessary, use audio cables to connect
the other devices to the ep-90/70 (p. 24).
5. Turn on the power to all equipment.

6. Adjust the volume.

❍

If you are encountering problems with the unit, please read

The piano cannot be switched on
❍

Is the power cord properly connected? (p. 8)

No sound is produced
❍

Is the [Volume] knob set to the minimum position?

❍

Metronome does not sound
❍

Is Panel Lock on? (p. 22)

If you can’t hear the problem in the headphones:
When playing at high volumes, resonance may occur in
the piano itself or in objects near the piano. At times,
other objects in the room, such as fluorescent lights or
glass doors, could start vibrating. Such phenomenon
becomes more prevalent when sounding the lower
frequencies at high volume. To minimize such unwanted
resonance, please observe the following:
- Locate the instrument so it is 10–15 cm away from
walls.
- Reduce the volume.
- Increase the distance from the object that is
resonating.
If you can hear the problem in the headphones:
The problem may be for a different reason. Please
contact your dealer.

Strange sounds (or two sounds) are produced
when the ep-90/70 is played
❍

The metronome sound or count sound is not recorded.

The recorded performance has been deleted

On 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 ep-70/90, the range that is unaffected by
the damper pedal will change depending on the Key
Transpose setting.

With the sequencer’s “Thru” function on, the same notes
may be sounded twice. Set the ep-90/70 to Local off
(p. 26).

The volume level of the instrument connected
to Input jacks is too low
❍

Could you be using a connection cable that contains a
resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not contain a resistor.
