Roland FP-7F Owner's Manual page 3

Introduction
Full-fledged Piano Performance
The FP-7F features the SuperNATURAL piano sound generator and the PHA III Ivory Feel-S keyboard.
You'll enjoy full-fledged piano performances with richly expressive piano sounds and a keyboard that allows you to express every nuance of your
musical inspiration.
Functions for Even More Playing Enjoyment
Looper (p. 60)
This lets you layer your performance with a looper rhythm, and play it back repeatedly.
The recorded phrases can also be saved in USB memory (sold separately) and used with the Audio Key function.
Session Partner (p. 44)
This provides a realistic-sounding accompaniment for your performance, letting you enjoy the sensation of playing a session with a backing band.
Microphone (p. 76)
By connecting a microphone (sold separately), you'll be able to easily add harmony using the Looper or Session Partner function.
Audio Key (p. 31)
Allows you to play back audio files that you've saved on USB memory (sold separately) while you perform.
You can also switch between audio files at the desired timing.
Registrations (p. 49)
Favorite settings, such as your choice of sounds and Session Partner settings, can be saved as a "registration" and easily recalled.
