Roland RM-700 - Manual (Page 3)

4
The stereo multi-sampled piano sound generator vividly reproduces even the sound of the
hammer striking the strings and the subtle sound of a key being released, faithfully delivering
the sound of a high-quality concert grand piano.
The “Ivory Feel Keyboard” uses cutting-edge technology to reproduce the tactile sensation of
ivory and ebony, considered to be the ultimate materials for a piano keyboard. Together with
the “Progressive Hammer Action II (PHA II)” mechanism, which simulates the distinctive touch
of a piano action, you can enjoy the playing feel and response that top-level performers expect
from a grand piano.
This feature simulates the sound and expressive power of the grand piano, including aspects
such as the sympathetic resonance of the piano strings, the way in which the sound is affected
by the opened or closed position of the piano lid, and the subtle sounds that occur when the
damper pedal is pressed to release the strings. You can create your own personalized piano
sound by adjusting these factors to your taste.
Built into the RM-700 are a broad range of Music Styles (rhythm and automatic
accompaniment patterns) that cover favorite musical genres from around the world.
The “One Touch Song” function makes it easy to add the ideal accompaniment or sound to the
songs you want to play.
“Slide Show” automatically switches between images at the specified timing. By using this in
conjunction with the “Anime” function, which displays graphics or text in time with your
keyboard performance or the song playback, you can enjoy a variety of images that change
along with the performance.
The on-screen keyboard can automatically move according to the notes while a song plays, or
you can watch a visual representation of the pitch and duration of the notes. This means that
you can enjoy music not just with your ears, but also with your eyes.
