Opening/Closing the Keyboard Cover

You must use both hands to open or close the keyboard cover.

*When opening or closing the keyboard cover, please be careful not to get your fingers pinched between the movable part and the panel. In places where small children are present, make sure that an adult provides supervision and guidance.

Opening the Keyboard Cover

Closing the Keyboard Cover

Use both hands to lift the edge of the lid, and push it away from yourself.

Grasp and gently lower the edge of the lid with both hands.

*If you have any objects (papers, metal objects, etc.) placed on top of the keyboard cover, do not open the cover. Otherwise, such objects may slip inside the instrument, and then become irrecoverable.

Basic Operation of the RP102

Turning the Power On/Off

Press the [L] (power) button to turn on the power.

If you hold down the [L] (power) button for one second or longer, the power turns off.

Adjusting the Volume

Use the two volume buttons to adjust the volume. Volume (up) button: Increases the volume. Volume (down) button: Decreases the volume.

You can adjust the speaker volume when using the built-in speakers, or the headphones volume when headphones are connected.

*The number of indicators lit at the right of the volume buttons changes according to the volume. If all indicators are lit, the volume is at its maximum. If all indicators are unlit, there will be no sound.

The power to this unit will be turned off automatically after a predetermined amount of time has passed since it was last used for playing music, or its buttons or controls were operated (Auto Off function). If you do not want the power to be turned off automatically, disengage the Auto Off function (p. 5).

55 Any settings that you are in the process of editing will be lost when the power is turned off. If you have any settings that you want to keep, you should save them beforehand.

55 To restore power, turn the power on again.

Changing the Settings

By holding down the [Function] button and pressing a key, you can select sounds or adjust the sensitivity of the keyboard.

*When operating the pedal, please be careful not to get your fingers pinched between the movable part and the panel. In places where small children are present, make sure that an adult provides supervision and guidance.

Using the Pedals to Modify the Sound

Damper pedal

Use this pedal to sustain the sound. While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an extended time even if you release your fingers from the keyboard. By pressing the pedal to different depths, you can adjust the length of sustain (short, long). On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper pedal will cause the strings for notes other than the ones you actually play to vibrate in sympathy with what you’ve played, producing a rich resonance. This unit simulates this sympathetic vibration (damper resonance).

Sostenuto pedal

This pedal sustains only the notes of the keys that were already pressed when you pressed the pedal.

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.

Bottom Panel Connections

* To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, always turn down the volume, and turn off all the units before making any connections.

PHONES Jacks

Power Cord

AC Outlet

Place the AC adaptor so the side with the indicator faces upwards and the side with textual information faces downwards. The indicator will light when you plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.

USB Memory for Update Port

This connector will be used if there are future additions or expansions to the RP102’s functionality.

*Never insert or remove the USB flash drive while this unit is turned on. Doing so may corrupt the unit’s data or the data on the USB flash drive.

*Use a commercially available USB flash drive or a USB flash drive sold by Roland. However, we cannot guarantee that all commercially available USB flash drives will work with this unit.

USB Computer Port

 

If you have a DAW program on your computer, or if you have SMF data, you can use a commercially available USB cable

 

to connect the RP102's USB Computer port to the USB port of your computer and do the following.

 

(DAW: music production software (sold separately), SMF: song files)

 

55 SMF data played back on your DAW can be sounded by the RP102.

 

55 MIDI data can be transferred between the RP102 and your DAW, letting you produce and edit music in a variety of ways.

Roland RP-102 Owner’s Manual

Making Settings on the RP102

 

 

You can divide the keyboard into left and right sections so that two people can play the same pitch ranges.

 

 

This function lets you use the unit as though it were two pianos.

 

 

The keyboard will be divided into left and right sections, with “middle C” located in the center of each section.

 

 

You can choose one of the following ways in which the sound will be heard.

*The left and right sections will have the same tone (Concert Piano).

* The damper pedal affects only the right section of the keyboard.

* The soft pedal operates as the damper pedal for the left section of the keyboard.

You can change the playing feel of the keyboard.

The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you finger the middle A key.

with Other Instruments

 

For a cleaner ensemble sound while performing with one or more other instruments, ensure that each

instrument’s standard pitch is in tune with that of the other instruments. This tuning of all the instruments to a

Making Settings on the RP102

Hearing Sound from the Built-in Speakers and the External Speakers

With the factory settings, the built-in speakers do not produce sound if the external amplifiered speakers are connected to the PHONES jack. However, you can change this setting so that sound is output from the built-in speakers even if the external speakers are connected to the PHONES jack.

*When you change the setting, the character from the external speakers will change.

1.While holding down the volume (up) and volume (down) buttons, press the [Function] button.

Connect an App on a Mobile Device

If you install an app on your smartphone, tablet, or other mobile device, and connect it via Bluetooth, you can use the app to view the status of the RP102 on the large screen of your mobile device, and use the app to operate the RP102.

Here, we explain initial settings that let you use the Piano Partner 2 app to enjoy your RP102 even further, and that let you use the pedals of the RP102 to control a page-turning app.

As an example, we’ll explain the settings when using an iPad.

If you’re using an Android device, refer to the owner’s manual of your unit for details on how to make settings for its Bluetooth functionality.

Piano Partner 2 – An App for Enjoying the RP102 Even More

You can connect your iPad or other tablet to the RP102 to enjoy your piano even more. * Piano Partner 2 is an app made by Roland that supports iOS and Android.

It can display musical scores of the RP102’s internal songs, and lets you enjoyably boost your musical abilities through ear-training games. Since it can take advantage of your tablet’s large screen, it’s easy to operate.
