HP-137 Roland HP 137 Roland Digital Piano Owner's Manual Thank you for purchasing a Roland HP-137 Digital Piano. The HP-137 is the new entry-level model of Roland’s HP series Digital Pianos. As such, it comes with all the benefits: a weighted Hammer-Action keyboard, vibrant sounds and a number of useful functions. 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. Thanks to its Hammer-Action keyboard, the HP-137 faithfully reproduces the feel of an acoustic piano with minute control over the sound. Captures the brilliant resonance The sound of a grand piano has a brilliant timbre because the sound of a grand piano contains a greater amount of high-frequency components. The HP-137 reproduces this characteristic of the grand piano. Extended high-frequency response One of the features of an acoustic piano is that for the strings of the highest 1 1/2 octaves, there is no damper to restrict the vibration of the strings, irrespective of whether or not the damper pedal is used. Since this also allows these strings to vibrate sympathetically with other strings, they can sometimes be heard sounding independently from the low and mid-dle-register strings. The HP-137 faithfully simulates these characteristics of the acoustic piano (being a digital instrument, the HP-137 contains no strings). Four Tones for a wide variety of musical genres The HP-137 comes with four sounds (called “Tones”). That way, you can also use your instrument for playing harpsichord, organ, and pop/jazz music. Before using this instrument, carefully read the sections on pages 2 and 4. They provide important information concerning the proper operation of the HP-137. To get the most out of the HP-137 and to ensure many years of trouble-free service, we urge you to read through this Owner’s Manual thoroughly. To avoid confusion, let’s agree to use the word “button” for all keys on the front panel, and only use “key” when referring to the HP-137’s keyboard. Copyright © 1999 ROLAND EUROPE.
