We want to take a moment to thank you for your purchase of the Roland Organ “Music ATELIER AT-100/300.” The
ATELIER is an electronic organ which provides a generous collection of rich organ sounds. In addition, it is designed
to be easy to learn and use. 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.
* The AT-100 and AT-300 are abbreviated in this manual as “ATELIER” respectively.

Basic Concepts of the ATELIER Series

A full complement of organ sounds

A wide range of basic organ sounds, ranging from jazz organ and pipe organ to theatre organ, are onboard so you
are sure to enjoy having access to all the sounds you expect from an organ.

Panel layout based on a tradition of emphasis on realtime operation

Based on the idea that you should be able to sit down and begin playing immediately, the operation buttons of the
panel are arranged by function as dictated by classic organ traditions, ensuring easy and intuitive operation. All
models of the ATELIER series feature the same operability, allowing you to start playing immediately even if you switch
models.

High-quality sounds that you can use without editing

In addition to a full range of organ sounds, high-quality sounds such as strings and brass are also included onboard.
You can simply select sounds and enjoy playing the organ—no need to perform complicated editing operations.

Expansive lower keyboard with damper pedal for piano-like expressiveness

The piano is indispensable to contemporary music performance. All models of the ATELIER series contain high-quality
grand piano sounds that you will enjoy performing. In addition, the range of the lower keyboard has been expanded,
giving you greater expressive capabilities on the piano. A damper pedal and initial touch sensitivity are also
provided, both necessities for piano performance.

Design utilizes your existing music data

The ATELIER series is designed so that even on new models, you will feel right at home and can begin playing
immediately. Consideration has been given to data compatibility, and existing song data or registration data can be
moved to USB memory or used by connecting a floppy disk drive.

Music styles from around the world

A rich variety of the world’s most representative music styles (rhythm and auto accompaniment patterns) are built-in,
allowing you to more readily perform music from almost any genre.

Utilizes SMF music files

Compatible with General MIDI 2, the world standard in SMF music files. Since an external memory connector is
provided, you can connect separately available USB memory or a floppy disk drive and take advantage of the wide
range of commercially available SMF music files. You can also mute parts, allowing you to practice the part for each
hand separately, and enjoy performing ensemble with the music files.
