Owner's Manual
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland Digital Piano HP103e/102e.
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 polyph-
ony of 64 notes ensures that you can use the pedal freely without running out of notes.
In addition, this instrument features a "Grand Sound" speaker system, and simulates the full,
three-dimensional nature of a concert grand piano (Grand Space), which together help to deliver a
sound with even greater clarity and power (Dynamic Emphasis).
Pursuing the Playing Feel of a Grand Piano
This instrument features a progressive hammer action keyboard, which duplicates the touch of a
grand piano, with a heavier touch in the lower register, and a lighter touch in the upper register.
The pedal is designed for good-feeling response, and allows subtle performance nuances to be
expressed.
Comfortable for Use with Headphones
Special effects applied to the sound when headphones are used make listening through head-
phones comfortable, not fatiguing. And in addition to an indicator on the front panel that lights up
when you connect a pair of headphones, the HP103e/102e also provides a convenient hook where
you can keep your headphones when they're not in use.
A Variety of Helpful Practice Features and Built-in Piano Songs
A metronome function and "two-track recorder," the built-in songs for a collection of scores (60
songs included), and other features let you experience piano lessons in ways possible only with a
digital piano.
Before using this unit, carefully read the sections entitled: "IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS",
