Connecting External Devices

You can connect the RM-700 to external devices such as audio
equipment, MIDI instruments and computer.

Connecting an External Display or Television

Your slide shows, animation effects, and the viewing of lyrics or
scores can all benefit from the use of a larger display.
That’s why this instrument allows you to connect an external
computer-use monitor or a television.

Connecting Portable Audio Player (p. 195)

You can connect your portable audio player to the Roland Audio
Port and play its sound from the RM-700. You can also use the
Transpose function (p. 122) to shift the pitch, or use the Center
Cancel function (p. 85) to minimize the melody or vocal sound.

Connecting Video Equipment (p. 196)

With a V-LINK compatible device connected, you can switch images
with the keyboard.

Connecting MIDI Devices (p. 196)

You can connect a MIDI sequencer and record performance data
from the RM-700, or play performance data from the RM-700 on the
sequencer. Also, when you connect a MIDI sound module, you can
perform on the RM-700 and hear the sounds played through the
MIDI sound module.

Connecting Audio Equipment (p. 199)

The RM-700 has high-quality built-in stereo speakers, but you can
also hook it up a stereo system for an even more impressive sound.

Connecting a Computer (p. 200)

You can use a sequencer program to record performance data from
the RM-700 and play performance data from the program on the
RM-700.

Connecting an Expression Pedal

You can connect an expression pedal and use it to adjust the
volume or to control another function.
Connect the expression pedal to the RM-700’s rear bottom panel
Control Pedal connector.

Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-7/5; sold
separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you
risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
Your slide shows, animation effects, and the viewing of lyrics or
scores can all benefit from the use of a larger display.
That’s why this instrument allows you to connect an external
computer-use monitor or a television.

You can switch screens with the remote control. For details,
refer to “Using the Remote Control” (p. 83).

You can’t use the Video Output jack and Analog RGB Out
connector at the same time.

Types of display that can be connected

In general, you can connect any display that is sold as a “multiscan
monitor.” However, to be certain, please check the following
specifications before you connect your display.

To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power
on all devices before making any connections.

1.

Switch off the RM-700 and the display you’ll be
connecting (p. 21).

2.

Use a commercially available monitor cable to connect
the RM-700’s Analog RGB Out connector to the analog
RGB connector of your display.

3.

Switch on the RM-700 (p. 21).

4.

Switch on the connected display.

For details on how to use your external display, refer to the
owner’s manual for your display.
