r E-200/E-100 InteLLIGENT KEYBOARD Owner’s Manual Thank you for choosing a Roland E-200/E-100 Intelligent Keyboard, a novel instrument with a superior Roland sound source, an intuitive user interface, a USB port, V-LINK compatibility and a host of other useful functions.
r E-200/E-100 2 Superior sound source The E-200/E-100’s sounds are based on full-length (uncom- pressed) waveforms, which is unique in this price range. This produces vibrant, realistic sounds quite unlike anything you would expect from a budget-friendly arranger keyboard.
E-200/E-100 3 • Before using this instrument, make sure to read the instructions below, and the Owner’s Manual. ...................................................................................................................................... • Do not open or perform any internal modifications on the unit.
r E-200/E-100 4 • Always grasp only the plug on the adapter when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit. .............................................................................................................................
E-200/E-100 5 ] In addition to the items listed under “” (p. 3), please read and observe the following: Power supply • Do not use this instrument on the same power circuit with any device that will generate line noise (such as an electric motor or variable lighting system).
r E-200/E-100 6 Handling floppy disks [E-200 only] • Floppy disks contain a plastic disk with a thin magnetic coating. Microscopic precision is required to enable storage of large amounts of data on such a small surface area.
E-200/E-100 7 Front panel A [POWER ON] button Press this button to switch the E-200/E-100 on and off. B BENDER/MODULATION lever By performing left/right movements, you can bend your solo notes down (left) or up (right). Press this lever towards the rear of the instrument to add modulation (usually vibrato) to the notes you are playing.
r E-200/E-100 8 M BAND ORCHESTRATOR section Press one of these buttons to choose the desired orchestra- tion for the selected Music Style. See page 20.
E-200/E-100 9 Rear panel A OUTPUT R, L/MONO sockets These sockets allow you to connect the E-200/E-100 to your HiFi amplifier, a mixer, a cassette deck, a keyboard amplifier, etc. If the external amplifier is mono, be sure to connect it to the OUTPUT L/MONO socket.
r E-200/E-100 10 Setting up The first thing you need to do is connect the supplied PSB-4U (E-200) or ACO (E-100) adapter to a suitable wall outlet. (1) Unpack the E-200/E-100 and place it on a stable surface. (2) Connect the small end of the adapter cable to the E-200/ E-100’s DC IN jack, and the other end to a suitable wall outlet.
E-200/E-100 11 Playback of a Stylist demo song (1) Press one of the STYLIST buttons to select a Stylist demo song. Playback of the Stylist demo song starts automatically. (2) Use the STYLIST buttons to select other Stylist settings. This is not really necessary, as the E-200/E-100 changes them automatically during this demo.
r E-200/E-100 12 Using the Main and Split parts (1) If you wish to play different sounds with your left and right hands, press the [SPLIT] button. The icon appears and the E-200/E-100 now automati- cally selects a sound for the Split part that complements the sound assigned to the Main part.
E-200/E-100 13 Let us now take advantage of the E-200/E-100’s accompaniment function. This function is called “Arranger”. Starting/using the Arranger (1) Press the [ARRANGER] button. The icon appears in the display and the key- board is split into two halves.
r E-200/E-100 14 Changing the tempo (6) Use the TEMPO/DATA buttons to decrease ( [–] ) or increase ( [+] ) the tempo (if necessary). To return to the Music Style’s default tempo, simultaneously press [–] and [+] . You can also press the [TAP¥TEMPO] button several times at the desired tempo.
E-200/E-100 15 (4) Use FAMILY [√][®] or the STYLE buttons to select the mem- ory area that contains the desired Music Style. The FAMILY buttons allow you to jump to the desired “fam- ily” (which also include the Flash and USER STL areas). The display now shows the name of the selected family.
r E-200/E-100 16 The E-200/E-100 allows you to play back commercially available music data files (called Standard MIDI Files) or your own songs you saved to disk or to the E-200/E-100’s Flash memory. Your own songs are saved as Standard MIDI Format 0 files and can also be played back using any other SMF compatible sequencer (or software).
E-200/E-100 17 You can press FAMILY [√] or [®] either repeatedly (brief presses) to go back or advance, or hold down [√] or [®] to quickly select another family. The fastest way to scroll through the available families is by holding down [√] while pressing [®] (go backwards), or by holding down [®] while pressing [√] (advance).
r E-200/E-100 18 Note: In certain cases, [‰] and [º] may not be available. This is only the case for very large songs, however. Note: By pressing [|√] , [º] or [‰] , you also recall the song’s pre- programmed tempo value. Loop playback (Repeat) Another clever feature of the E-200/E-100’s Recorder is that you can program playback loops.
E-200/E-100 19 Songs you record with the E-200/E-100, and the Standard MIDI Files you play back can consist of up to 16 tracks (i.e. MIDI channels). In many instances, only certain tracks are used, bu.
r E-200/E-100 20 Your E-200/E-100 is a novel arranger instrument and Standard MIDI File player with two functions for “customizing” the Styles or songs you play back via easy-to-use routines. Stylist function The Stylist function is derived from Roland’s revolutionary DisCover 5 keyboard.
E-200/E-100 21 Obviously, these buttons should be used during Arranger playback. The corresponding icon appears in the display (only one of them can be displayed at any one time). Note: Immediately after switching on the E-200/E-100, the Orchestrator selects the “FULL BAND” level.
r E-200/E-100 22 Your E-200/E-100 contains a 16-track Recorder you can use for recording your own songs. Basic song recording Let us first look at the most straight-forward way of recording your renditions with Arranger backing. (1) Press the [ARRANGER] button.
E-200/E-100 23 Listening to your song (1) Press the [SONG] button. (2) Press [START÷STOP] to start playback. (3) Press [START÷STOP] once again to stop playback. (4) Press [|√] to return to the beginning of the song. Other recording functions The E-200/E-100’s 16-track Recorder can be used in several ways.
r E-200/E-100 24 Keyboard recording mode In Keyboard mode, you can record the Keyboard parts. The Arranger is not available. Essentially, this mode allows you to record either one layered part using up to two sounds (Main + Dual) or two parts (Split to the left, Main to the right).
E-200/E-100 25 You can also use an optional footswitch for starting and stopping recording. Doing so has the advantage that you can use both hands for playing (or the left hand for Pitch Bend/ Modulation effects and the right for playing the melody.
r E-200/E-100 26 Apart from the basic Music Style functions covered on page 13 and following, your E-200/E-100 also provides the following functions. Most of the following functions are only available after pressing the [ARRANGER] button (the icon must be displayed).
E-200/E-100 27 Melody Intelligence The Melody Intelligence function adds a second voice (harmony notes) to the melodies you play with your right hand. In fact, the Melody Intelligence function uses bo.
r E-200/E-100 28 Selecting sounds for the Main, Split and Dual parts The E-200/E-100 contains about 470 melodic sounds you can use for playing melodies (others are more like sound effects). Those sounds need to be assigned to a Keyboard part, of which there are three: Main, Split and Dual (see also p.
E-200/E-100 29 Drum sounds and sound effects (“SFX”) Drum Kits The last 20 “sounds” (511~530) are so-called “Drum Kits”. When you select such a Kit, every key is assigned to a different sound. With the left-most key, you can play a bass drum sound (also called “kick”).
r E-200/E-100 30 Transpose The Transpose function changes the pitch of the notes and chords you play. Instead of figuring out what other keys you need to press to accommodate the singer or an instrumentalist, you can set the required Transpose value and go on playing the song the way you practised it, while sounding in a different key.
E-200/E-100 31 Performance functions Keyboard Touch (velocity sensitivity) The E-200/E-100 is velocity sensitive, which means that the vol- ume and brightness of the Main, Split and Dual notes depend on the force/speed with which you strike the keys. All acoustic instruments (piano, violin, flute, drums, etc.
r E-200/E-100 32 Footswitch The E-200/E-100’s FOOTSWITCH socket (rear panel) allows you to connect optional DP-2, DP-6, or BOSS FS-5U footswitch. The footswitch can be used for sustaining the notes you are playing (default), as Soft or Sostenuto pedal, to switch the Rotary effect speed (MFX), and more.
E-200/E-100 33 3Tap Dly : The Triple Tap Delay produces three delay sounds; center, left and right. 4Tap Dly : Delay with four repetition lines. TmCtrDly : This effect controls the delay time in realtime.
r E-200/E-100 34 (4) Use the [NO/–] / [YES/+] buttons to select “ Off ” if you don’t need the Reverb processor. Otherwise, select one of the eight available types: (5) Play a few notes on the keyboard to audition the effect. ● Changing the amount of Reverb processing for the Keyboard parts To change the Reverb depth (i.
E-200/E-100 35 ● Changing the amount of Chorus processing for the Keyboard parts To change the Chorus depth (i.e. how much Chorus is added to a part), proceed as follows: (6) If the [FUNCTION] button still lights, use SELECT [√][®] to select one of the following parameters.
r E-200/E-100 36 • STYLIST buttons : VFX1~4, None (ACOUSTIC= None, POP= V-FX 1, ROCK= V-FX 2, DANCE= V-FX 3, WORLD= V-FX 4) Use these buttons to change the video effects. This function is not available if the receiving video processor is already set to “Off”.
E-200/E-100 37 The E-200/E-100’s Function mode contains more advanced settings you may not need every day. They allow you to fine-tune your instrument’s response. It would therefore be a good idea to familiarize yourself with these parameters. Most settings (“*”) can be written to a User Program (see p.
r E-200/E-100 38 ■ PB Range° (Pitch Bend Range) (0~24, Default setting: 2) This parameter allows you to set the interval that will be used when you push the BENDER/MODU- LATION lever fully to the left or to the right (Pitch Bend effect).
E-200/E-100 39 ■ Auto Bass*: status and volume (OFF, 0~127, Default setting: OFF) Whenever the Split part is active, this parameter allows you to set the volume of the Auto Bass part (in which case the Auto Bass part is switched on). This part sounds monophonic bass notes based on the chords you play.
r E-200/E-100 40 ■ Chr MAIN* (0~127, Default setting: 0) This parameter allows you to set the Chorus Send Level for the Main part (i.e. how much Chorus should be added to the Main notes). If you want this part to be processed by the Chorus effect, you need to select a value dif- ferent from “0”.
E-200/E-100 41 The E-200/E-100 is equipped with 10 User Program memories that allow you to store almost all settings (or registrations) you make on the front panel and via the Function menu (see p. 37). Note: MIDI settings (see p. 43) are not saved to a User Program because the E-200/E-100 memorizes them automatically.
r E-200/E-100 42 The settings of the selected User Program will be recalled. Note: You can also use the FAMILY and SELECT [√][®] buttons to select User Programs. Note: As soon as you modify any setting (on the front panel or in the Function menu), the asterisk appears next to the User Program number.
E-200/E-100 43 MIDI is short for “Musical Instrument Digital Interface”. The word refers to many things, the most obvious being a connector type that is used by musical instruments and other devices to exchange messages relating to the act of making music.
r E-200/E-100 44 Please note that synchronization is only possible when you connect the external device’s MIDI OUT socket to the E-200/ E-100’s MIDI IN socket (though you can also work the other way around; in that case, see the sequencer’s manual for details).
E-200/E-100 45 Working with the Flash memory Let us first have a look at the remaining Function parameters. They allow you to save newly recorded songs and Styles loaded from a floppy disk [E-200 only] to the E-200/E-100’s Flash mem- ory, and to remove such files.
r E-200/E-100 46 The display now counts down: At the end of the saving operation, the display briefly shows the “ Complete ” message. Note: Press [NO/–] if you do not wish to save the Music Style after all. (7) Press another “big” button in the DATA ENTRY section to leave this function.
E-200/E-100 47 Archiving data using a computer (USB) The E-200/E-100’s USB port can be used for exchanging files with a computer. As long as the icon is not displayed, the USB port is not used.
r E-200/E-100 48 • Windows : Click on the removal icon on the task bar. Wait until a drop-down menu appears and select the entry that says something to the effect of “Stop USB disk E200_E100”. You should now see a window that says something to the effect of “The USB device XX can now be safely removed from the system”.
E-200/E-100 49 Loading songs from disk LOAD Sng allows you to load a song on floppy disk into the E-200/E-100’s User memory. (1) Insert a disk into the drive. (2) Press [DISK] to select the Disk mode. (3) Select the “ LOAD Sng ” function using FAMILY [√][®] .
r E-200/E-100 50 Deleting files on disk The Delete functions allow you to erase files from the inserted floppy disk. This may be necessary to make room for new files (e.g. when the “Disk Full” message appears). Be careful, though, to only delete files you are absolutely (positively) sure you will never need again.
E-200/E-100 51 If you like, you can also record your performance (or a Recorder songs) to cassette, MD, etc. To this end, you need to connect the E-200/E-100’s OUTPUT sockets to the external device’s REC IN jacks. Use a standard 1/4” phone cable for doing so.
r E-200/E-100 52 Functions for educational purposes The E-200/E-100 provides two functions that may come in handy for music teachers or for those who use the E-200/E-100 in class: Deactivating or activating the Demo function The E-200/E-100’s Demo function can be switched off so that pressing [USB] + [KEYBOARD¥TOUCH] will have no effect at all.
