Troubleshooting

Pedal Has No

Effect, or Effect

“Sticks”

Is the pedal connected correctly?

Connect the pedal securely to the Pedal

jack (p. 9).

Are you using a pedal made by another

manufacturer? Use the pedal included

with the FP-2 or an optional DP Series or

similar pedal.

Unplugging a pedal cord from the unit

while the power is on may cause the

pedal’s effect to be applied nonstop.

Be sure to switch off the power to the unit

before attempting to disconnect or connect

a pedal cord (p. 9).

Once it’s been assigned as a setup switch, a

soft pedal or sostenuto pedal cannot be

used for its original function (p. 48).

Sound Suddenly

Changes at Key in

Upper Octaves

With the acoustic piano settings, sounds in

the upper 1 1/2-octave range are extended

to the end regardless of the damper pedal

actions. The tone is also different in this

range. Roland’s pianos faithfully

reproduce the sonic qualities of acoustic

pianos. Furthermore, you can use the

instrument’s Key Transpose setting to

change that range over which the damper

pedal has no effect.

High-Pitched

Whine is Produced

When listening through headphones:

Certain piano tones that feature

vibrant, sparking sounds contain a

large high-frequency component,

which may make it appear that a

metallic reverberation has been

applied. This faithfully reproduces the

characteristics of acoustic pianos, and

does not indicate any malfunction.

Since this reverberation becomes

particularly audible when

supplemented by heavy reverb, you

may be able to diminish the problem by

reducing the amount of reverb applied

to the sound.

When listening through speakers:

Here, a different cause (such as

resonance produced by the FP-2) would

be suspect. Consult your Roland dealer

or nearest Roland Service Center.

Case Cause/What to do

Low End Sounds

Are Strange/Have

a Rattling Sound

When listening through speakers:

Playing at loud volumes may cause

instruments near the FP-2 to resonate.

Resonation can also occur with

ﬂuorescent light tubes, glass doors, and

other objects. In particular, this problem

occurs more easily when the bass

component is increased, and when the

sound is played at higher volumes. Use

the following measures to suppress

such resonance.

- Place speakers so they are 10–15 cm

from walls and other surfaces.

- Reduce the volume.

- Move the speakers away from any

resonating objects.

- Check to make sure that the screws

holding the music stand in place are

not loose.

When listening through headphones:

The cause lies somewhere else. Consult

your Roland dealer or nearest Roland

Service Center.

With certain tones, the sounds may seem

to be distorted.

The volume level

of the instrument

connected to Line

In Jack is too low

Could you be using a connection cable that

contains a resistor?

Use a connection cable that does not

contain a resistor.
