Master Tuning

(default value: 442.0
Hz)
When playing in an ensemble with other instruments, you can adjust the reference pitch of this
piano so that you will harmonize correctly with the other instruments. The reference pitch is usually
expressed as the frequency that is heard when you play the middle A (A4) note. The action of
matching the reference pitch to other instruments is called “tuning.”
ItemsValueExplanation
You can play classical styles such as Baroque using historic temperaments (tuning methods).
Most modern songs are composed for and played in equal temperament, the most common tuning in use today. But at one
time, there were a wide variety of other tuning systems in existence. By playing in the temperament that was in use when a
composition was created, you can experience the sonorities of chords originally intended for that song.
Temperament

Pythagorean
Kirnberger I
Kirnberger IIThis is a revision of Kirnberger I that reduces the limitations on the usable keys.
Kirnberger III
Meantone
Werckmeister
ArabicThis tuning is suitable for the music of Arabia.
This temperament divides the octave into twelve equal steps. It is the temperament that is most
commonly used on today’s pianos. Every interval has the same slight amount of dissonance.
In these temperaments, the primary triads are perfectly consonant. It is unsuited to playing melodies
and cannot be transposed, but is capable of beautiful sonorities. The Just tunings dier from major
and minor keys.
This tuning, devised by the philosopher Pythagoras, eliminates dissonance in fourths and fths.
Although triadic chords are slightly dissonant, this tuning is suitable for songs that have a simple
melody.
As in the Just temperaments, the primary triads are consonant in this tuning. Beautiful sonorities are
obtained when playing songs that are written in keys appropriate for this tuning.
This is an improvement of the Meantone and Just tunings that provides a high degree of freedom of
modulation. Performances are possible in all keys. Since the resonance diers depending on the key,
chords played in this temperament resonate in diverse ways when compared to equal temperament.
This temperament slightly narrows the fth relative to Just temperaments. While the Just
temperaments contains two types of whole tone (major whole tone and minor whole tone),
meantone temperament uses only one type of whole tone (mean whole tone). Transposition within
a limited range of keys is possible.
This temperament consists of eight perfect fths and four narrowed fths. Performance in all keys is
possible. Since dierent keys produce dierent sonorities, chords will resonate in diverse ways when
compared to equal temperament (Werckmeister I (III)).
Creating Your Own Piano Tone (Piano Designer)

When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the temperament key
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 temperament key.
Adjusts the time from when you play the key until the piano sound is heard. Higher values produce
a greater delay.

Adjusts the sound produced when the hammer of an acoustic piano strikes the string.
Higher settings will produce a louder sound of the hammer striking the string.
Adjusts the sympathetic vibrations of an acoustic piano’s Duplex Scale. Higher settings will
make the sympathetic vibration louder.
The Duplex Scale is a system of sympathetically vibrating strings sometimes included in grand
pianos. These sympathetically vibrating strings are not struck directly with hammers, but
sound by vibrating in sympathy with the vibrations of other strings. By resonating with the
overtones, these strings add richness and brilliance to the sound. These sympathetic strings
are added only to the high register above approximately C4. Since they do not have a damper
(a mechanism that stops them from sounding), they will continue sounding even after you
play a note and then release it to stop the sound of the string that was actually struck.
Adjusts the resonant sound of an acoustic piano (the sound produced by the strings of
previously-pressed keys vibrating in sympathy with newly played notes, or the sound of other
strings vibrating in sympathy with the notes you play while pressing the damper pedal).
Higher settings produce louder sympathetic resonance.
Adjusts the resonance of the subtle sounds that occur when a key of an acoustic piano is
released. A higher value produces a larger tonal change during the decay.
Adjusts the body resonance of the grand piano itself.
Higher values will produce a larger body resonance.

You can choose from ve dierent types of resonance.
Adjusts the damper noise of the acoustic piano sound (the sound of the damper releasing the
strings when you press the damper pedal).
Adjusts the depth of the eect that occurs when you press the soft pedal. With higher values,
the change will be greater.
Adjusts the tuning of each individual key. For example, you can adjust the width of stretched
tuning, which tunes the higher register slightly higher and the lower register slightly lower.
Adjusts the tonal character of each key. Higher settings produce a harder sound, and lower

CAUTION
32
Keep small items out of the reach of

To prevent accidental ingestion
of the parts listed below, always
keep them out of the reach of small
children.
• Removable Parts (LX708 and LX706 only)
Thumbscrews (rear panel of piano)
° IMPORTANT NOTES
Placement
• Do not allow lighting devices that normally
are used while their light source is very close
to the unit (such as a piano light), or powerful
spotlights to shine upon the same area of the
unit for extended periods of time. Excessive
heat can deform or discolor the unit.
• 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 (Other than Mirror Finish)
• To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or
one that is slightly dampened. Try to wipe
the entire surface using an equal amount of
strength, moving the cloth along with the
grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the
same area can damage the nish.
• The pedals of this unit are made of brass.
Brass eventually darkens as the result
of the natural oxidization process. If the
brass becomes tarnished, polish it using
commercially available metal polisher.
Care of the Keyboard
• Do not write on the keyboard with any pen
or other implement, and do not stamp or
place any marking on the instrument. Ink
will seep into the surface lines and become
unremovable.
• Do not ax stickers on the keyboard. You
may be unable to remove stickers that use
strong adhesives, and the adhesive may cause
discoloration.
• To remove stubborn dirt, use a commercially
available keyboard cleaner that does not
contain abrasives. Start by wiping lightly.
If the dirt does not come o, wipe using
gradually increasing amounts of pressure
while taking care not to scratch the keys.
Concerning the Care of the Unit (Mirror
Finish)
• The surface of this unit has been polished so
as to create a high-gloss, mirror-like nish.
Since this beautiful nish is as delicate as that
of the highest quality, wood-crafted furniture,
it needs to be cared for at regular intervals.
Please make sure to observe the following
when caring for the unit.
• For routine care, gently clean the surface
using a soft cloth or a piano-use feather
duster. You must avoid applying any force,
since even the tiniest particles of sand or
grit can produce scratches if you wipe too
hard.
• If the nish loses its luster, use a soft cloth
dampened with some polishing liquid to
evenly wipe the surface of the unit.
• Avoid using detergents or other cleaners,
as they can cause the surface nish to
deteriorate. This may lead to the formation
of cracks or other imperfections. Also, do
not use chemically-enhanced cleaning
cloths.
• Precautions concerning the use of polishing
agents
• Refer to the instructions that came with
the polishing agent for instructions on its
proper use.
• Use only polishing agents that are
designed specically for use on the
mirror nishes of pianos. By using any
other product, you risk causing scratches,
deformation, discoloration, etc. To
purchase an appropriate product, please
consult the nearest musical instrument
store.
• Use the product only on the portions of
this unit that have a mirror-like nish, and
using an even touch, apply it equally over
the entire surface. If you apply more force
in one place over another, you risk losing
some of the luster of the nish.
• Store in a location that is out of the reach
of small children. If accidentally ingested,
induce vomiting immediately. Then, see a
doctor to obtain a diagnosis.
Repairs and Data
• Before sending the unit away for repairs, be
sure to make a backup of the data stored
within it; or you may prefer to write down
the needed information. Although we will
do our utmost to preserve the data stored in
your unit when we carry out repairs, in some
cases, such as when the memory section is
physically damaged, restoration of the stored
content may be impossible. Roland assumes
no liability concerning the restoration of any
stored content that has been lost.
Additional Precautions
• Any data stored within the unit can be lost
as the result of equipment failure, incorrect
operation, etc. To protect yourself against the
irretrievable loss of data, try to make a habit
of creating regular backups of the data you’ve
stored in the unit.
• Roland assumes no liability concerning the
restoration of any stored content that has
been lost.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the
display.
• The sound of keys being struck and vibrations
produced by playing an instrument can be
transmitted through a oor or wall to an
unexpected extent. Please take care not to
cause annoyance to others nearby.
• Do not apply undue force to the music rest
while it is in use.
• Do not use connection cables that contain a
built-in resistor.
Using External Memories
• Please observe the following precautions
when handling external memory devices.
Also, make sure to carefully observe all the
precautions that were supplied with the
external memory device.
• Do not remove the device while reading/
writing is in progress.
