001
• Before using this unit, make sure to read the
instructions below, and the Owner’s Manual.
• Do not open (or modify in any way) the unit or its
AC adaptor.
008c
• Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with
the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the
installation matches the input voltage specified on
the AC adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may
use a different polarity, or be designed for a
different voltage, so their use could result in
damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
• 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.
• When using the unit with a rack or stand recommended by Roland, the rack or stand must be
carefully placed so it is level and sure to remain
stable. If not using a rack or stand, you still need
to make sure that any location you choose for
placing the unit provides a level surface that will
properly support the unit, and keep it from
wobbling.
• 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!
• 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.
• Immediately turn the power off, remove the AC
adaptor from the outlet, and request servicing by
your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or
an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
“Information” page when:
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• DO NOT play a CD-ROM disc on a conventional
audio CD player. The resulting sound may be of a
level that could cause permanent hearing loss.
Damage to speakers or other system components
may result.
• 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.
• Should you remove screws for the stand or the
music stand, make sure to put them in a safe place
out of children’s reach, so there is no chance of
them being swallowed accidentally.
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2 and 3, please read and observe the following:
Power Supply
301
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is
being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by
an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a
motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical
appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit
to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not
practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a
power supply noise filter between this unit and the
electrical outlet.
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.
354a
• 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.
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.
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.
Maintenance
401a
• 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.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.
Additional Precautions
551
• Please be aware that the contents of memory can be
irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the
improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against
the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that
you periodically save a backup copy of important data
you have stored in the unit’s memory in another MIDI
device (e.g., a sequencer).
552
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data that was stored in another MIDI device (e.g., a
sequencer) once it has been lost. Roland Corporation
assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
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.
561
• Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5; sold
separately). By connecting any other expression pedals,
you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
562
• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using
some other make of connection cable, please note the
following precautions.
• 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.
4
Handling CD-ROMs
801
• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside
(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD-ROM
discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean
using a commercially available CD cleaner.

Connect the pedal included with the FP-5 to one
of the Pedal jacks.
When connected to the Damper jack, the pedal can be
used as a damper pedal. In addition, it can be set to
function as an another works (p. 27, p. 44).
When connected to Sostenuto(FC1) jack, the pedal can be
used as a sostenuto pedal. In addition, it can be set to
function as an another works (p. 43, p. 52).
When connected to Soft(FC2) jack, the pedal can be used
as a soft pedal. In addition, it can be set to function as an
another works (p. 43, p. 52).
fig.00-04
* Unplugging a pedal cord from the unit while the power is on
may cause the pedal’s effect to be applied without stopping.
The power of the FP-5 must be turned off before inserting or
removing a pedal cord.
Damper Pedal
Use this pedal to sustain the sound. While the pedal is
depressed, long lingering reverberations continue to be
added to the sound after you release from the keys.
The pedal included with the FP-5 functions as a half-damper
pedal, which allows you to adjust the amount of resonance.
When you depress the damper pedal on an acoustic piano,
the sound from the strings that were struck resonates with
other strings, adding rich reverberations and broadness to
the sound. You can adjust this resonance (sympathetic
resonance) when the damper pedal is depressed.
* With the pedal connected to the Damper jack, it can be
assigned other functions as well. Refer to “Changing the
Sound’s Pitch in Real Time (Pedal Control)” (p. 27).
* Set the switch on the included pedal to “Continuous” when
the pedal is connected.
Sostenuto Pedal
This pedal sustains only the sounds of the keys that were
already played when you pressed the pedal.
* With the pedal connected to the Sostenuto(FC1) jack, it can be
assigned other functions as well. Refer to “Changing How the
Pedals Work” (p. 43), “Using the Pedal to Switch Setup
(Pedal shift)” (p. 52).
Soft Pedal
This pedal is used to make the sound softer.
Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that
is not as strong as when otherwise played with the
equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left
pedal of an acoustic piano.
* With the pedal connected to the Soft(FC2) jack, it can be
assigned other functions as well. Refer to “Changing How the
Pedals Work” (p. 43), “Using the Pedal to Switch Setup
(Pedal shift)” (p. 52).
* By obtaining a second and third pedal, you can then use three
pedals simultaneously. If you wish to purchase the optional
pedal (DP series), please contact the dealer where you
purchased the FP-5.
Turning the Power On and
Off
* Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to
your various devices in the order specified. By turning on
devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/
or damage to speakers and other devices.

performing with sounds suitable for many different types of music.
These onboard sounds are called “Tones.” The Tones are divided into seven
different groups, each of which is assigned to a different Tone button.
The Tone “Grand Piano 1” is selected when the instrument’s power is
turned on.

Chapter 1 Playing the Keyboard
What Are “Feet?”
Feet basically refers to the lengths of pipe used in pipe organs. The
length of pipe used to produce the reference pitch (the fundamental) for
the keyboard is eight feet. Reducing the pipe to half its length produces
a pitch one octave higher; conversely, doubling the pipe length creates
a pitch one octave lower. Therefore, a pipe producing a pitch one octave
below that of the reference of 8’ (eight feet) would be 16’; for one octave
above the reference, the pipe would be 4’, and to take the pitch up yet
another octave it would be shortened to 2’.
Simulating the Creation of Organ Tones
(Tone Wheel Mode)
When any of the “Tone Wheel” Tones is selected, you can perform in “Tone
Wheel mode,” in which the creation of organ sounds is simulated.
An organ features nine “harmonic bars” that can be drawn in and out, and
by using the bars in different combinations of positions, a variety of
different tones can be created. Different “Feet” are assigned to each bar, with
the pitches of the sounds being determined by these “Feet.”
You can simulate the creation of tones using the harmonic bars by assigning
footages to the Tone buttons.
In Tone Wheel mode, the footages are switched by pressing the [Tone
Wheel] button, and a total of nine footages and percussion instruments are
assigned to the Tone buttons other than [Piano] button.
On tone wheel organs, in the high range of the keyboard, high-pitched feet
are “wrapped around” one octave down.
Folding back the high-frequency portion prevents the high-frequency
sounds from being unpleasantly shrill, and folding back the low-frequency
portion prevents the sound from becoming “muddy.”
NOTE
When the Tone Wheel is
selected, you cannot enable
the dual mode (p. 18).
On the FP-5 faithfully simulates this characteristic.

About Perc (Percussion)
Perc (Percussion) adds an attack-type sound to the beginning of the note to
give the sound more crispness. The attack sound changes according to the
value.

The percussion on tone wheel organs did not apply to all notes that were
played. When notes were played legato (smoothly and connectedly),
percussion was applied only to the first-played note. When notes were
played staccato (articulating each note separately), percussion was applied
to all notes. This method is referred to as single trigger algorithm, and is a
very important element in organ performance.
On the FP-5 faithfully simulates this characteristic.
Percussion sounds at a pitch one octave

Percussion sounds at a pitch an octave and

Chapter 2 Playing Along with Rhythms
What is Session Partner?
“Session Partner” Lets You Enjoy Playing with a Session-Like Feel
“Session Partner” is an easy-to-use function that plays accompaniment in a
variety of musical styles.
Playing along with this accompaniment, with its realistic sounds, gives you
the feel that you are playing live with a band backing you.
For example, playing with “Session Partner” instead of using the
metronome always lets you practice the piano with something different.
You can also change the accompaniment as you like to suit whatever you are
playing.
By changing the chords and Rhythms, even while playing the same melody,
you can easily create all kinds of new arrangements.
We encourage you to enjoy the variety of performance options open to you
by using the “Session Partner” feature.
What You Can Do With “Session Partner”
“Session Partner” lets you mainly do the following things.
• Play piano with a session-like feel along with Rhythms while the chord
progression continues automatically (p. 32).
• Play the piano to provide your own accompaniment as you specify
chords with the left hand (the left part of the keyboard) (p. 35).
• Enjoy freer piano performances using your own original chord
progressions (p. 36).
With “Session Partner,” you select three “rhythms” and add
accompaniment, selecting the rhythms by turning the three part buttons on
and off.
You can play intros, endings, and fill-ins (short phrases inserted at transition
points in the song) by pressing buttons as you play the keyboard.
What are the FP-5’s “
The FP-5 features internal “Rhythms” complementing Pops, Jazz, and other
various musical genres.
“Rhythms,” or combinations of elements from a musical genre that recreate
the mood or signature sound of a particular style, form the foundation of the
accompaniment used in “Session Partner.”
Rhythms?”
A “Rhythm” is composed from the following three items.
• Drum Part
• Bass Part
• Chord Part
You can play each of these Parts by pressing the [Drums], [Bass], and
[Chord] buttons.

Tuning to Other Instruments’
Pitches (Master Tuning)
When playing ensemble with other instruments and in other
such instances, you can match the standard pitch to another
instrument.
The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note
that’s played when you finger the middle A key. For a
cleaner ensemble sound while performing with one or more
other instruments, ensure that each instrument’s basic pitch
is in tune with that of the other instruments. This tuning of
all the instruments to a standard pitch is called “master
tuning.”
When the instrument is turned on, the standard pitch is set to
“440.0 Hz.”
Adjusting the Tuning
(Temperament)
You can play classical music such as baroque pieces using
their original tuning.
Most modern songs are composed and played with the
assumption that equal temperament (the most common
tuning in use today) will be used, but when classical music
was composed, there were a wide variety of other tuning
systems in existence. Playing a composition with its original
tuning lets you enjoy the sonorities of the chords that the
composer originally intended.

Chapter 4 Other Functions
You can choose from among the seven tunings described
below.
TemperamentQualities
1
EqualIn this tuning, each octave is divided
into twelve equal steps. Every interval produces about the same amount
of slight dissonance. This setting is
in effect when you turn on the
power.
2
PythagoreanThis tuning, devised by the philoso-
pher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and fifths.
Dissonance is produced by thirdinterval chords, but melodies are
euphonious.
3
Just MajorThis tuning eliminates ambiguities
in the fifths and thirds. It is unsuited
to playing melodies and cannot be
transposed, but is capable of beautiful sonorities.
4
Just MinorThe Just tunings differ from major
and minor keys. You can get the
same effect with the minor scale as
with the major scale.
5
Mean ToneThis scale makes some compromises
in just intonation, enabling transposition to other keys.
6
WerckmeisterThis temperament combines the
Mean Tone and Pythagorean tunings. Performances are possible in all
keys (first technique, III).
7
KirnbergerThis is an improvement of the Mean
Tone and Just tunings that provides
a high degree of freedom of modulation. Performances are possible in all
keys (III).
3.
Press a key corresponding to the keynote.
The display is as follows:
fig.Chart3
Display
Letter
name
C d_ d E_ E F F G A_ A b_ b
C D D E E F F G A A B B
When playing with tuning other than equal
temperament, you need to specify the keynote for tuning
the song to be performed (that is, the note that
corresponds to C for a major key or to A for a minor
key).
If you choose an equal temperament, there’s no need to
select a keynote.
* When performing in ensemble with other instruments, be
aware that depending on the key, there may be some shifting of
the pitch. Tune the FP-5 to the fundamental pitch of the other
instruments.
Changing the Beat Pattern
The metronome usually sounds one beat per quarter note,
but you can change the beat pattern to sound, for example,
one beat for every dotted quarter note.

About the FP-5 Sound
Generator
The FP-5 come equipped with GM2 sound generators.
General MIDI
The General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks
to provide a way to go beyond the limitations of proprietary
designs, and standardize the MIDI capabilities of sound
generating devices. Sound generating devices and music files
that meets the General MIDI standard bears the General
MIDI logo. Music files bearing the General MIDI logo can be
played back using any General MIDI sound generating unit
to produce essentially the same musical performance.
General MIDI 2
The upwardly compatible General MIDI 2 recommendations
pick up where the original General MIDI left off, offering
enhanced expressive capabilities, and even greater
compatibility. Issues that were not covered by the original
General MIDI recommendations, such as how sounds are to
be edited, and how effects should be handled, have now
been precisely defined. Moreover, the available sounds have
been expanded. General MIDI 2 compliant sound generators
are capable of reliably playing back music files that carry
either the General MIDI or General MIDI 2 logo.
48
FP-5
In some cases, the conventional form of General MIDI, which
does not include the new enhancements, is referred to as
“General MIDI 1” as a way of distinguishing it from General
MIDI 2.

* If, during the transmission/reception of data, the computer
switches to energy-saving mode or suspended mode, or if the
FP-5’s power is switched on or off, the computer may freeze, or
the FP-5’s operation may become unstable.
* A separate publication titled “MIDI Implementation” is also
available. It provides complete details concerning the way
MIDI has been implemented on this unit. If you should require
this publication (such as when you intend to carry out byte-

Connecting MIDI Devices
About MIDI
MIDI stands for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface,” and
is a worldwide standard for the exchange of performance
data (MIDI messages) and other information among
electronic instruments and computers.
The FP-5 features a MIDI connector and a computer
connector to allow performance information to be exchanged
with external devices. Connecting the keyboard to other
devices with these connectors provides you with an even
greater variety of ways to use your keyboard.

What is a MIDI Sound Module?
Inside a synthesizer or electronic piano is the section that
actually produces sound, known as the sound module. A
MIDI sound module produces sounds as the result of MIDI
messages sent to it by other devices.
■
MIDI Settings
MIDI Send Channel Settings
Select the transmission channel of FP-5.
MIDI features sixteen MIDI channels, numbered 1–16.
Simply connecting a cable is not enough for communication
to take place. The connected devices must be set to use the
same MIDI channels. Otherwise, no sound will be produced,
and no sounds can be selected.
When the instrument is turned on, this is set to Channel “1.”
The FP-5 receives messages on all channels, 1–16.
* When the keyboard is in dual play, the channel you’ve set here
is transmitted.
* When the keyboard is split into left and right sides, the
transmission channel for messages from the left-hand side is
fixed at “3.”

What is a Sequencer?
A sequencer is a device that records the stream of MIDI
messages that is sent out by an instrument. These messages
convey all the details of what has occurred while the
instrument is played; including the timing of notes, their
sound, the force used to play them, and for how long.
Afterwards, you can send the recorded MIDI information
back to the instrument, and it will play automatically.
Press the [-] or [+] button to select the
2.
transmission channel.
Select the transmission channel (1–16) of the FP-5.
Switching Local Control On and Off
When connecting a MIDI sequencer, set Local Control to “Off.”
When the instrument is turned on, this is set to “On.”
As illustrated, information describing what has been played
on the keyboard is passed to the internal sound generator
over two different routes, (1) and (2). As a result, you hear
overlapping or intermittent sounds. To prevent this from
happening, route (1) must be severed, by setting the unit to
what is known as “Local Off.”

Troubleshooting
CaseCause/What to do
Is the pedal connected correctly?
Connect the pedal securely to the Pedal
jack (p. 9).
Are you using a pedal made by another
manufacturer? Use the pedal included
with the FP-5 or an optional DP Series or
similar pedal.

while the power is on may cause the
pedal’s effect to be applied nonstop.
Be sure to switch off the power to the unit
before attempting to disconnect or connect
a pedal cord (p. 9).
Is the [Pedal Control] button’s indicator
on? When the [Pedal Control] button’s
indicator is on, a damper pedal cannot be
used for its original function (p. 27).
Once it’s been assigned as a setup switch, a
soft pedal or sostenuto pedal cannot be
used for its original function (p. 52).
When the part to which the effects are
applied is assigned to the Lower Tone, the
effects are then not applied to the Upper
Tone (p. 44).
As the FP-5 piano sounds faithfully
reproduce the depth and reverberation of
actual acoustic pianos, reverberation may
still be audible even after the reverb effect
is removed from sounds.
With the acoustic piano settings, sounds in
the upper 1 1/2-octave range are extended
to the end regardless of the damper pedal
actions. The tone is also different in this
range. Roland’s pianos faithfully
reproduce the sonic qualities of acoustic
pianos. Furthermore, you can use the
instrument’s Key Transpose setting to
change that range over which the damper
pedal has no effect.
CaseCause/What to do
When listening through headphones:
Certain piano tones that feature vibrant,
sparking sounds contain a large highfrequency component, which may make it
appear that a metallic reverberation has
been applied. This faithfully reproduces
the characteristics of acoustic pianos, and
does not indicate any malfunction. Since
High-Pitched
Whine is Produced
Low End Sounds
Are Strange/Have
a Rattling Sound
The volume level
of the instrument
connected to Line
In Jack is too low
this reverberation becomes particularly
audible when supplemented by heavy
reverb, you may be able to diminish 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 FP-5) would be suspect.
Consult your Roland dealer or nearest
Roland Service Center.
When listening through speakers:
Playing at loud volumes may cause
instruments near the FP-5 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
measures 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.
- Check to make sure that the screws
holding the music stand in place are not
loose.
When listening through headphones:
The cause lies somewhere else. Consult
your Roland dealer or nearest Roland
Service Center.
Could you be using a connection cable that
contains a resistor?
Use a connection cable that does not
contain a resistor.
