Introduction

Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of a Roland Classic Organ. The Roland C-380 and C-330 Classic Organs represent a new

type of organ with numerous features, allowing you to enjoy full-fledged pipe organ sound in your home.

In order to take full advantage of your Roland Classic Organ and enjoy trouble-free operation, please read this owner’s manual

carefully.

This owner’s manual uses the following conventions in order to explain operations as clearly as possible.

• The Roland C-380 and C-330 classical organs are referred to as the “C-380” and “C-330,” respectively.

• Tablet and Piston names are enclosed in square brackets (“[ ]”), as in [SET] piston.

• For easier readability, some screens and colors used here may differ somewhat from actual screens and colors.

• Text preceded by a symbol such as or an asterisk (*) are warnings. Please be sure to read these.

• (p. **) refers to pages within the manual.

• Text preceded by explains a shortcut for the operation.

• Perform all operations after you’ve returned to the main screen. For details on how to return to the main screen, refer to “Return to the

Main Screen” (p. 27).

• The explanations in this manual include illustrations that depict what should typically be shown by the display. Note, however, that your

unit may incorporate a newer, enhanced version of the system (e.g., includes newer sounds), so what you actually see in the display may

not always match what appears in the manual.

The Roland C-380 and C-330 Classic Organs have two manuals and a pedalboard.

From the bottom, these are referred to as the “PEDAL division,” “MAN I (Manual 1) division,” and “MAN II (manual 2) division.”

The basic group of sounds for each keyboard is called a “division.”
