To turn the pRP6 on, press the ON/OFF switch located on the left key block.

After a short period, the instrument is ready to play the Grand Piano preset. The LED of the Grand Piano Preset button will be on as an indication that the instrument is on.

In this power up condition, you will be able to play a piano sound (GrandPiano) across the entire keyboard without carrying out other operations.

Adjust the overall volume

Use the VOLUME control knob to adjust the overall volume level.

Clockwise rotation of the VOLUME control knob increases the overall volume and counter-clockwise rotation decreases it.

Headphone jack

The headphone jack is located on the rear connections panel.

Plugging a set of headphones into the Phones jack will exclude the internal speakers to allow you to play in total silence without disturbing others in the same room. Use a mini jack1/4” adapter for Walkman or MidiDisc headphone sets.

Use the Volume control to adjust the Headphones volume.

Pedal Connection

The pRP6 has two connectors for the connection of optional, switch-action pedals: SOFT and DAMPER.

Soft: The Soft pedal (left) is a switch control pedal (On/Off) which affects the timbre of the instrument such that it plays softer, allowing you to continue using the same playing style at a lower volume.

Damper: The Damper pedal (right) applies the Sustain effect to all notes released. If you release a note after depressing the Damper, the note will proceed towards its natural decay according to the type of sound played. The Damper is particularly effective with Piano type sounds.

Listen to the Demo song

The pRP6 contains a demonstration recording of the internal sounds.

1.Press both the DATA m and n buttons at the same time.

The Demo song will start to play instantly. When it reaches the end, it will start from the beginning and repeats continually until stopped.

2. To stop the playback at any point, press both DATA m/n buttons at the same time.

You can also use the Grand Piano Preset button to stop the Demo.
