01 Main Features
The INTEGRA-7 is a completely new sound module that contains expressive and high-quality
SuperNATURAL sounds in addition to a rich sound library from the ever-popular SRX series, as
well as “Motional Surround,” which uses RSS (Roland Sound Space) technology to oer a new
type of sound eld.
The powerful SuperNATURAL sounds are reproduced using Motional Surround in a deeper and
even more natural sound eld, allowing a truly new dimension of sound creation.
SuperNATURAL tones provide not only realistic sound, but also rich, natural expression during a performance
SuperNATURAL Acoustic Tones
The SuperNATURAL acoustic tones built into the INTEGRA-7 do not merely reproduce the
sound of acoustic instruments, they also use Behavior Modeling Technology to simulate
the characteristic behavior of an instrument when it is played.
A dedicated sound engine tuned specically for each type of instrument analyzes the
phrases performed by the player, automatically dierentiating between chordal and
melodic playing to produce the optimal expression for a performance.
For example, the “violin” SuperNATURAL acoustic tone allows your conventional keyboard
playing to create a realistically expressive solo violin sound that sounds as if it were being
played by a violinist.
Crescendo
Glissando technique
Vibrato
SuperNATURAL Synth Tones
These are SuperNATURAL synth tones, which realistically reproduce sounds ranging from
vintage analog synths to digital synths. Each synth tone consists of three sets of OSC,
FILTER, AMP, and LFO, meaning that powerful synth sounds can be created using just a
single synth tone.
In addition, the behaviors of the oscillators and lters of analog synths have been analyzed,
allowing their distinctive sounds to be reproduced. The INTEGRA-7 contains more than
1,000 sounds, which cover every type of synth sound from analog to digital.
SuperNATURAL Drum Kits
The SuperNATURAL drum kits built into the INTEGRA-7 provide not only realistic, highquality sound, they also boast smooth tonal change in response to your playing dynamics
or to repeated strikes.
For example, the crash cymbal can be played not only by a powerful strike, but will also
respond to a light touch. The ride cymbal will shift through a variety of tones in response
to your varying dynamics. The drum will also respond appropriately to repeated strikes, so
press rolls, ams, and ll-ins will sound natural.
Repeated strikes on cymbal edge
Snare roll
What is SuperNATURAL?
These are proprietary Roland sounds created using Behavior Modeling Technology, which enables
natural and rich expression that was dicult to achieve on earlier sound generators.
What is Behavior Modeling Technology?
Not only physical modeling of the instruments, Roland takes it a step further by modeling the instrument’s distinctive behavior
that responds to how the performer plays, resulting in true-to-life, expressive sounds in realtime.
8
The INTEGRA-7 brings together the classic sounds of Roland synthesizers (PCM Tones)
Classic preset sounds from past models of Roland synthesizers, as well as the
sounds from the entire SRX series wave expansion boards have been included,
especially tuned for the INTEGRA-7.
The sound data includes PCM synth tones and PCM drum kits, and can be called
up from the preset banks and expansion banks.
Quick Guide
The sounds of the SRX series are organized into SRX-01 through SRX-12 just as on
the actual SRX models; when you load an entire title of sound data into one of the
four virtual slots, those sounds will be available for use.
PCM Synth Tones
These are sounds that were called “patches” on previous Roland synthesizers; they have been tuned specically for the INTEGRA-7. One PCM
synth tone can consist of up to four partials (waves).
PCM Drum Kits
These were called “rhythm sets” on previous Roland synthesizers; they have been tuned specically for the INTEGRA-7. A drum kit is a group
of multiple percussion instrument sounds assigned so that a dierent percussion instrument will be heard depending on the key (note
number) you play.
Multi-eects Usable for 16 Parts Simultaneously
All of the tones (SuperNATURAL tones and PCM tones) built into the INTEGRA-7 includes dedicated multi-eect settings.
Since a multi-eect can be used by each of the 16 parts simultaneously, the most appropriate multi-eect settings will be called up when you
select a tone.
Motional Surround lets you control not only left/right panning but also depth
The INTEGRA-7 supports two-channel output as well as 5.1 channel surround.
Using the Motional Surround function gives you even more freedom to
manipulate the spatial position of each part (p. 16).
Until now, sounds in a MIDI sound module could only be panned between left
and right. However, the INTEGRA-7 lets you specify the depth as well, allowing
you to create a sound eld that has unprecedented depth and spaciousness.
For example, a solo instrument can be placed nearby, while the ensemble or
percussion instruments are placed at a distance, thus creating a sound eld
with greater depth; or you can create a perceptual space that extends beyond
the actual speakers.
This eect can be applied to external input signals as well, so you can use it on
audio tracks as well as on the sounds of the sound module.

* To use the Motional Surround function, turn the [MOTIONAL SURROUND] button ON (p. 16, p. 34).
What is Motional Surround?
In the sounds we hear every day, the “direct sound,” which reaches our ears directly from the sound source, is combined with the “reected
sound,” which has bounced o various objects in the environment. The combination of these two types of sound gives us a sense of the
distance between us and the sound source. Motional Surround takes into account the state of the actual room, and simulates the way in which
objects in the room reect the sound, thus creating a three-dimensional sound eld.
In order to create the most realistic sound eld, the INTEGRA-7 contains a processor that generates a sense of distance, reverberation, and
directionality, and also performs format conversion.
As appropriate for your playback system, Motional Surround supports both 5.1 channel and two-channel output.

SuperNATURAL Acoustic Tone (SN-A)
Changes in dynamics
From delicate pianissimo to powerful fortissimo, these tones provide natural timbral variation (dynamics) that goes beyond
mere changes in volume.
* Dynamics can be controlled by note-on velocity, modulation controller (CC01), and expression (CC11).
While a note is sounding, you can operate the modulation controller (CC01) or expression pedal (CC11) to continuously
control the dynamics (except for struck-string instruments and plucked-string instruments).
Legato
By playing legato (the technique of sending the next note-on before releasing the previous key) you can produce smooth
transitions between notes.
* To obtain the legato eect, set the Mono/Poly of the part settings to “MONO” and set the Legato switch to “ON” (p. 32).
Switching variation sounds
Each instrument provides eective performance variation sounds; you can use control changes CC80, CC81, CC82, CC83
(Tone Variation 1–4) to switch instantly between them as you play.

SuperNATURAL Synth Tone (SN-S)
Realistic lter behavior
The INTEGRA-7 contains lters that simulate the classic analog synths of the past, producing natural-sounding change when
you vary the cuto frequency (CC74) or resonance (CC71).
SuperNATURAL Drum Kit (SN-D)
Changes in dynamics
From delicate pianissimo to powerful fortissimo, these sounds provide natural timbral variation (dynamics) that goes beyond
mere changes in volume.
Eliminates boring uniformity even for repeated attacks
To avoid monotonous uniformity, the sense of attack will dier for each strike.
Ambience control for the entire kit
The drum kit consists of multiple drum instruments such as snare, kick, and hi-hat. You can control the resonance between
instruments and the ambience of the room.
PCM Synth Tone (PCMS) / PCM Drum Kit (PCMD)
The PCM synth tones and PCM drum kits are what were called patches and rhythm sets on previous Roland synthesizers; they
are remarkable for their high quality and their rich variations. Many classic sounds tuned specically for the INTEGRA-7 are
included.

SURROUND)” (p. 49) in System Settings.
About the monitoring environment
• An acoustically dead space with minimal reverberation is ideal as a monitoring room.
• You should monitor at the sweet spot of your speaker system.
Concerning perception of a sound image’s location
• The ease with which one can sense where a sound emanates from can dier depending on the sound.
For example, it is dicult to perceive the spatial location of low-frequency sounds or sounds that have relatively little harmonic content
(such as sine waves). Conversely, it tends to be easier to determine the location of sounds having rich harmonic content and a distinct
attack.
• Perception of front/back localization can dier between individuals.

What is Motional Surround?
The INTEGRA-7 supports two-channel and 5.1 channel surround output. By using the Motional
Surround function, you can freely and easily control the placement of each part (p. 34).
While conventional systems allow sound to be placed only in the left/right direction, this new
function adds the front/back dimension, enabling you to play sounds that you’ve freely placed
in a soundscape with depth. Additionally, you can specify the type and size of room; this allows
you to adjust the acoustics as appropriate for your song, ranging from an intimate room to a
large concert hall.

Getting Acquainted with the INTEGRA-7
Studio Sets
Studio Sets allow you to use multiple tones and drum kits simultaneously.
One studio set contains 16 “parts” for tones and one external part (EXT PART). You can assign a tone or drum kit to each part, allowing you to create an
ensemble or to play rich-sounding layers.
If you’re using an external MIDI device or DAW software, you’ll be able to independently control multiple sounds on a single INTEGRA-7 unit.
How a Tone Is Structured
A “tone” is a unit of sound used when performing. There are “SuperNATURAL tones” and
“PCM tones,” each containing their own eect (MFX) settings.
You need to select a tone from the sound library and assign it to a part. You can also
edit a tone and save it in user memory.
SuperNATURAL Tone
There are three types of SuperNATURAL tones:
“SuperNATURAL acoustic tones,” “SuperNATURAL synth
tones,” and “SuperNATURAL drum kits.”
SuperNATURAL Acoustic Tone (p. 38)
These tones do not merely reproduce the sound of
acoustic instruments, they also use behavior modeling
technology appropriate for the selected tone to
emulate the expressive power distinctive of each
acoustic instrument, such as the phrases performed
by the player and the dierences between chords and
melodic phrases.
SuperNATURAL Synth Tone (p. 38)
These tones consist of three partials, and allow powerful
synth sounds to be produced by a single tone.
SuperNATURAL Drum Kit (p. 39)
These tones consist of 62 partials; they allow you to
sound a dierent percussion instrument for each key
(note number) that’s played.
A drum kit is provided with six compressor + equalizer
units, allowing you to divide the instruments into
groups so that you can individually adjust the dynamics
of each group or modify its tone quality.

PCM Tone
There are two types of PCM tones: “PCM synth tones”
and “PCM drum kits.”
PCM Synth Tone (p. 39)
These tones consist of four partials. Each partial can
be turned on/o individually, allowing you to choose
which partials will be heard.

provided with six compressor + equalizer units, allowing you to divide the instruments into groups so that you can individually adjust the dynamics
of each group or modify its tone quality.
* The six compressor + equalizer units for a drum kit are applied only to one specied part of the multiple parts to which a drum kit can be assigned.
Make this setting in STUDIO SET COMMON (p. 32).
* Dedicated multi-eect settings are included in each tone (SuperNATURAL tones and PCM tones) built into the INTEGRA-7.
EXPANSION Virtual Slots
EXPANSION Virtual Slots are banks into which you can load “EXPANSION SOUNDS” sound data for use.
“SRX tones,” “SuperNATURAL tones,” or “ExPCM (GM2 compatible) tones” can be loaded into an EXPANSION Virtual Slot. “ExPCM tones” use all
four slots, meaning that they do not allow other tones to be loaded.
For details, refer to “04 Using the Expansion Sounds” (p. 14).

You can choose from 67 types of eects as appropriate for your
purpose.
There are types that consist of a single eect, such as distortion or
anger, as well as a wide variety of other types. Although the multieect types also include chorus, this is a separate processor that is
independent of the chorus unit of a studio set.
Each tone has one set of multi-eect settings.
Compressor + Equalizer (COMP + EQ)
A drum part allows you to use six compressor + equalizer units.
They can be assigned individually to the drum instruments.
* Although it is possible to assign drum kits to all of the parts, the
six compressor + equalizer sets provided for a drum kit will be
available only for the single part you specify (the Drum COMP +
EQ Assign part).

Equalizer (EQ)
This equalizer is applied to each individual part.
It allows you to independently adjust the high, mid, and lowfrequency ranges.
MOTIONAL SURROUND
Motional surround allows you to not only position a sound
anywhere between the left and right edges of the sound eld, but
also allows you to move it towards the front or rear.
Two-channel and 5.1 channel output is supported, allowing you to
place each instrument at the desired depth.
* When you turn Motional Surround on, reverb/chorus will not be
applied.
CHORUS
The chorus eect adds depth and spaciousness to the sound.
* Motional Surround and chorus cannot be applied at the same time.

About Memory
Memory is where data such as the settings for studio sets and tones are held.
There are three types of memory: “temporary memory” (the temporary area, and the EXPANSION Virtual Slots), “rewritable memory” (user memory,
system memory, and USB memory), and “non-rewritable memory” (preset memory).

Temporary memory
Temporary Area
This area temporarily holds the data of
the studio set or tone that you’ve selected
from the panel.
When you play, the INTEGRA-7 produces
sound according to the settings in the
temporary area. When you edit a studio
set or a tone, you’re not directly modifying
the data in that memory; rather, the data
is called into the temporary area, and your
editing modies this data.
Settings in the temporary area are
temporary, and will be lost when you turn
o the unit or call up other settings. If you
want to keep the settings of the temporary
area, you must execute the Write operation
(p. 29) to save them into rewritable User
Memory.
EXPANSION Virtual Slots
Sound data from EXPANSION SOUNDS can
be loaded into these memory locations to
expand the available sounds.
You can load four titles of SRX or
SuperNATURAL sound data into these
virtual slots.
Rewritable memory
System Memory
This is memory that holds the system
parameter settings that specify how the
INTEGRA-7 is to operate. To store the
system parameters, execute the System
Write operation (p. 48).
User Memory
This is memory that stores data inside the
INTEGRA-7. To store a studio set, execute
Studio Set Write (p. 34). To store a tone,
execute Tone Write (p. 40). To store a drum
kit, execute Drum Kit Write (p. 40).
* EXPANSION SOUNDS sound data
that you’ve edited in the temporary
area can be saved in user memory,
but it will not be audible unless the
EXPANSION SOUNDS used by that
sound data have been loaded into an
EXPANSION Virtual Slot.
USB Memory
You can use a USB ash drive to back up
all of the studio sets, tones, and drum kits
in User Memory, together with the system
parameters from System Memory, as a
single collection of data (p. 52).
Of the studio sets and tones saved in the
INTEGRA-7, you can select the desired
sound data and export it to a USB ash
drive. You can also select a desired studio
set or tone from a le that was previously
exported to a USB ash drive, and import
it.
Non-rewritable Memory
Preset Memory
The data in preset memory cannot be
rewritten.
However, settings loaded from preset
memory into the temporary area can be
edited and then stored in user memory.

Sets how the Patch’s notes play. The MONO setting is
eective when playing a solo instrument Patch such
as sax or ute.
Turn this parameter “ON” when you want to use the
Legato feature and “OFF” when you don’t.
Legato is a feature that works only when the Mono/
Poly is MONO. When Legato is ON, pressing one key
when another is already pressed causes the currently
playing note’s pitch to change to that of the newly
pressed key while continuing to sound. This can be
eective when you wish to simulate performance
techniques such as a guitarist’s hammering on and
pulling o strings.
* This setting is ignored for parts to which a tone is
assigned.
Species the number of voices that reserved for
each Part when more than 128 voices are played
simultaneously.
Turn this “

Species the width of the mid range.
Higher values make the range narrower.
This determines what will happen to the tone’s level
when a note that’s higher than the tone’s specied
keyboard range is played.
Higher settings produce a more gradual decrease
in volume. If you don’t want the tone to sound at all
when a note outside the keyboard range is played,
set this parameter to “0.”
Species the highest note that the tone will sound
for each tone.
* If you attempt to raise the lower key higher than
the upper key, or to lower the upper key below the
lower key, the other value will be automatically
modied to the same setting.
Species the lowest note that the tone will sound for
each tone.
This determines what will happen to the tone’s level
when a note that’s lower than the tone’s specied
keyboard range is played.
Higher settings produce a more gradual decrease

Adjusts the pitch of the part’s sound up or down in
semitone steps (over a range of +/-4 octaves).
Adjusts the pitch of the part’s sound up or down in
1-cent steps (over a range of +/-50 cents).
Species the amount of pitch change in semitones
(over a range of 2 octaves) that will occur when the
Pitch Bend Lever is moved. The amount of change
when the lever is tilted is set to the same value for
both left and right sides.
Species whether the portamento eect will be
applied (ON) or not (OFF).
* Portamento is an eect which smoothly
changes the pitch from the rst-played key to the
next-played key. By applying portamento when the
Mono/Poly parameter is “MONO,” you can simulate
slide performance techniques on a violin or similar
instrument.
When portamento is used, this species the time
over which the pitch will change. Higher settings
will cause the pitch change to the next note to take
more time.
Adjusts the cuto frequency for the tone or drum kit
assigned to a part.
Adjusts the Resonance for the tone or drum kit set

Adjusts the Decay Time for the tone or drum kit
assigned to a part.
Adjusts the Release Time for the tone or drum kit
assigned to a part.
For each part, adjust the vibrato speed (the rate
at which the pitch is modulated). The pitch will be
modulated more rapidly for higher settings, and
more slowly with lower settings.
For each part, this adjusts the depth of the vibrato
eect (the depth at which the pitch is modulated).
The pitch will be modulated more greatly for higher
settings, and less with lower settings.

begins, while lower settings produce a shorter time.
If you want to play the keyboard using a tuning
other than equal temperament, you can choose an
alternative tuning such as just intonation (major,
minor) or an Arabian scale.
When using a tuning other than equal temperament,
choose the tonic that’s appropriate for the key of the
song you’re playing (i.e., the note corresponding to
“C” for major, or “A” for minor).
If you’re using equal temperament, there’s no need to
select the tonic.
For each note, this lets you adjust the pitch in
steps of one cent (1/100 semitone) relative to the
equal-tempered pitch.

When you play high notes on the INTEGRA-7, you might hear
notes that fail to sound, whose pitch fails to rise, or a noise that
changes depending on the note you play (a warbling, chirping,
rustling, beeping, etc.)
If you want the INTEGRA-7 to stay on, change the “Auto O”
system setting to “OFF.”
Make sure that the AC power cord is connected correctly.
Do not use anything other than the included AC power cord;
otherwise, you risk causing a malfunction.
If you hear sound through your headphones, it may be that there
is a broken connection cable, or that your amp or mixer have
malfunctioned. Check your connection cables and equipment
once again.
Make sure that the MIDI transmit channel of the connected device
matches the MIDI receive channel (Rx Channel) of the INTEGRA-7.
Check the eect on/o settings. Also check settings such as the
eect levels.
If the settings of the sound use a tone, wave, or instrument of an
expansion sound, make sure that the corresponding expansion
sound data is loaded correctly.
Adjust the Level setting to raise the volume of the part that you
don’t hear.
Check the expression messages that are being transmitted by your
external MIDI device.
If USB-MIDI Thru is on, MIDI messages received at MIDI IN will
be re-transmitted without change from USB OUT, so the sound
generator will not produce sound.
If you want to play the sound generator via the MIDI IN connector,
turn USB-MIDI Thru o.
Adjust the Level to raise the volume of the part that you don’t
hear.
If you don’t hear sound from a specic range of keys, check the key
range settings.
Change the Sampling Rate setting of the INTEGRA-7 so that it
matches the sampling rate of the audio signal.
The PEAK indicator on the front panel will light if the input level
clips. Adjust the volume of the connected device to an appropriate
level so that the PEAK indicator does not light.
Check the pitch bend messages that are being transmitted by your
external MIDI device.
Reduce the number of layers in the Live Set you’re using. Increase
the voice reserve setting for layers in which notes must not drop
out.
Since the INTEGRA-7’s internal eects are stereo, applying an insert
eect will allow eect sound to be heard from the opposite side
even if the source sound is panned all the way to one side.
PAN will not work if Motional Surround is on. Turn MOTIONAL
SURROUND o.
This is usually because you have exceeded the highest note that
the INTEGRA-7 is able to produce, and won’t occur with the notes
you would normally use. This does not indicate a malfunction.

When the Legato Switch (p. 32) is “ON” and Legato Retrigger is
“OFF,” and you hold down a low note and play a high note to
produce a legato eect, the pitch might stop at a certain point
and fail to rise as far as you expect because the upper limit of
the wave data has been exceeded.
If the tone uses multiple waves, and each of these waves has a
dierent upper limit, the result might no longer sound mono.

Does your computer’s USB port support USB 2.0 Hi-Speed?
If “Sync Mode” is set to “SLAVE,” change the tempo of the external
device that is transmitting MIDI clock data.
If you want to make large changes in the pitch, you should turn
Legato Retrigger “ON.”
For details on the parameters, refer to “Parameter Guide PDF.”
The eect won’t be obtained if the send level to that eect is set
at 0. Even if the send levels to the eect is set above 0, the eect
won’t be applied if the multi-eect level, or reverb level are set to
0. Check each of these settings.
Increase the System tempo.
Since the delay time has an upper limit, specifying the delay time
as a note value and then slowing down the tempo may reach this
upper limit. The maximum delay time is the highest value that can
be specied numerically (i.e., other than in terms of a note value).
Match the INTEGRA-7’s transmit channel and your connected
device’s receive channel.
