Introduction

Congratulations on your choice of the Roland Digital Piano F-100.

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. The two pedals are securely attached to the piano, ensuring that they will be stable when operated.

A variety of practice features to help you develop your musicality

In addition to a metronome, the F-100 provides functionality that is possible only for an electronic piano, making it an instrument that is ideal for piano lessons: a “rhythm function” that encourages a natural sense of rhythm, and a “two-track recorder” that lets you record and listen to your own playing.

Tones For Use in a Wide Variety of Musical Genres

The F-100 offers twenty different onboard tones, including piano, which can be used for almost every conceivable style of music.

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.

Includes High-Quality Reverb

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

Sixty Internal Piano Songs

The instrument comes with a selection of classical piano songs, which can be used for lesson, or be played for your listening enjoyment.

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.
