Introduction

Congratulations on your choice of the Roland Digital Piano F-90.

In order to enjoy reliable performance of your new keyboard for many years to come, please take the time to read through this manual in its entirety.

Main Features

Refined Wood Grain, Compact Design

The simple design and light wood grain finish is at home both in the living room as well as in the children’s room.

And at a compact about 300 millimeters deep, it fits in perfectly with other furniture.

Authentic Piano Performances

High-quality concert grand piano tones, along with the Progressive Hammer Action keyboard, which gives more realistic piano touch by providing a heavier feel in the low end and a lighter feel in the upper notes, let you enjoy truly authentic piano performances.

High-Performance Two-Box Speaker Construction

The lateral speaker box features two independent left and right speaker boxes, providing unexpectedly superior volume and sonic quality.

The speakers can also be directed rearward if conditions require.

Ten Tones For Use in a Wide Variety of Musical Genres

The F-90 offers 10 different onboard tones, including piano,

which can be used for almost every conceivable style of

music.

Includes High-Quality Reverb

The Reverb effect can duplicate the ambience of a concert hall.

Numerous Internal Songs

The F-90 features sixty internal piano songs.

Metronome Function

The F-90 comes equipped with a metronome that is convenient for practice. You can adjust tempo, beat, and volume.

Keyboard Touch Can Be Set to Match Finger Strength

You can change the keyboard touch so it better suits the

finger strength of the person playing the keyboard.

Two Headphone Jacks Provided

The F-90 comes equipped with two headphone jacks, allowing two people to use headphones simultaneously.

This is a convenient feature for use in lessons, or when playing pieces for four hands.

Includes Input/Output Jacks

By connecting external audio equipment to the F-90’s Line Output jacks you can play sounds from the F-90 through your audio setup, and with a CD player or other such device connected to the Input jacks, you can then play internal sounds along with F-90 performances.
