Owner’s Manual

Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the Roland Digital Piano ep-760.

Main Features

Piano sounds with rich resonance and wide-ranging expressiveness

The stereo sampling piano sound generator realistically reproduces even the sound of the hammers striking the strings, producing the tones of a high-quality concert grand piano. Maximum polyphony of 64 notes ensures that you can use the pedal freely without running out of notes.

A variety of practice features to help you develop your musicality

In addition to a metronome, the ep-760 features a two-track recorder, which allows you to experience piano lessons in a way possible only on electronic pianos.

65 piano songs built-in

The built-in songs are mainly classical pieces, and include compositions for listening enjoyment as well as for lessons.
