The maximum simultaneous polyphony is 128 voices. If you are playing along with a song and making heavy use

 

Not all the notes you play are sounded

of the damper pedal, the number of notes the HP305/HP302 is attempting to produce may exceed the maximum

polyphony, meaning that some of the notes will drop out.

 

 

 

 

 

Is the HP305/HP302 in Dual play?

p. 31

Sounds are heard twice (doubled) when the

 

 

 

 

keyboard is played

When the HP305/HP302 is connected to an external sequencer, set the Local Control to off. Alternatively, the

sequencer could be set so its Soft Thru feature is Off.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Tone buttons [E. Piano] [Strings] [Others] also operate as buttons that select “Recommended Tones.”

You can also make settings so that “recommended” sounds are not automatically assigned.

 

 

 

 

Effect does not apply

When you are using Dual play or Split play, and different effects are specified for the two selected tones, the

effect will not be applied to Tone 2 (when using Dual play) or the left-hand tone (when using Split play).

 

 

 

 

 

Reverberation remains even if You defeat the

give the impression of reverberation even if you’ve defeated the Reverb effect.

 

 

 

 

 

On an acoustic piano, the approximately one and a half octaves of notes at the top of the keyboard will continue

sounding regardless of the damper pedal. These notes also have a somewhat different tonal character. HP305/

changes from a certain key

HP302 faithfully simulate this characteristic of acoustic pianos. On the HP305/HP302, the range that is unaffected

 

 

by the damper pedal will change according to the key transpose setting.

 

 

 

 

 

If you hear this in headphones:

 

 

Piano sounds that have a brilliant and crisp character contain substantial high-frequency components that may

 

 

sound as though a metallic ringing has been added. This is because the character of an actual piano is being

 

 

faithfully reproduced, and is not a malfunction. This ringing is more obtrusive if the reverb effect is applied

 

High-pitched ringing is heard

heavily, so you may be able to minimize it by decreasing the reverb.

If you don’t hear this in headphones:

 

 

It is likely that there is some other reason (such as resonances within the unit). Please contact your dealer or a

 

 

nearby Roland service center.

 

 

 

 

 

If you set the volume to the maximum setting, the sound may be distorted depending on how you perform.

p. 21

 

If this occurs, turn down the volume.

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you don’t hear this in headphones:

 

 

Performing at high volumes may cause the speakers or objects near the HP305/HP302 to resonate. Fluorescent

 

 

lights or glass doors may also resonate sympathetically. In particular, this is more likely to occur for lower notes

 

Low notes sound wrong, or are buzzy

and higher volumes. You can take the following measures to minimize resonances.

 

 

• Locate the speakers 10–15 cm away from walls or other surfaces.

—

 

• Keep the volume down.

 

 

 

• Move away from the objects that are resonating.

 

 

If you hear this in headphones:

 

 

It is likely that there is some other reason. Please contact your dealer or a nearby Roland service center.

Sound is heard from a muted track

Could the mute volume be set to other than “0”?

p. 60

If you set this to “0,” the sound of a muted track will be completely inaudible.
