Appendices
In the upper range,
the sound changes
abruptly beyond a
certain key
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 HP-2, the range that is unaffected
by the damper pedal will change depending on
the Key Transpose setting.
A High-pitched
whine is produced
When listening through headphones:
Some of the more flamboyant and efferves-
cent 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 dimin-
ish 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 HP-2) would be suspect.
Consult your Roland dealer or nearest
Roland Service Center.
Case
Cause/Remedy
The bass range
sounds odd, or
there is a vibrating
resonance
When listening through speakers:
Playing at loud volumes may cause instru-
ments near the HP-2 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 mea-
sures to suppress such resonance.
• Place speakers so they are 10–15 cm from
walls and other surfaces.
• Reduce the volume.
• Move the speakers away from any
resonating objects.
When listening through headphones:
Here, a different cause (such as resonance
produced by the HP-2) would be suspect.
Consult your Roland dealer or nearest
Roland Service Center.
The volume level of
the instrument con-
nected 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.
