16 Before You Play 1. Connect the pedal cord to the Pedal connector on the rear panel of RP201. Plug the pedal cable all the way into the Pedal connector.
17 Before You Play Attach the included music rest using the procedure described 1. Insert the included music rest attachment screws into the screw holes on top of the RP201, and tighten the screws slightly (leave a gap of approximately 2–3 mm). fig.
18 Before You Play Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/ or damage to speakers and other devices. This unit is equipped with a protection circuit.
19 Before You Play The pedals perform the following operations. You’ll use them mainly when playing piano. fig.Pedals-j.eps Damper Pedal (right pedal) Use this pedal to sustain the sound. While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an extended time even if you release your fingers from the keyboard.
20 Before You Play You can use headphones to enjoy the RP201 without disturbing those around you, such as at night. Since the RP201 has two headphone jacks, two people can also use headphones simultaneously. If you’re using only one set of headphones, you may connect them to either of the two headphone jacks.
21 Performing The RP201 features over 300 different internal sounds, allowing you to enjoy performing with sounds suitable for many different types of music. These onboard sounds are called “Tones.” The Tones are divided into 4 different groups, each of which is assigned to a different Tone button.
22 Performing You can apply a reverb effect to the notes you play on the keyboard. With the reverb effect, you obtain a pleasant reverberation, making it sound as if you were performing in a concert hall or similar space. fig.Reverb.eps 1. Press the [Reverb] button so it’s lit.
23 Performing Example: Playing a Song in the Key of E Major After Transposition to C Major Hold down the [Transpose] button and press the E key (since E is the tonic). Counting from C as a reference point, one moves up four keys, including the black keys, to reach E, thus “4” appears in the display.
24 Performing Performing with the keyboard divided at a certain key into a left side and a right side is called “Split Play,” and the point at which the keyboard is divided is called the “split point.” In Split Play, you can have a different tone sound in the left and right sides.
25 Performing You can change the split point (the key at which the keyboard is divided). The split point can be set to any value from B1 through B6. This is set to “F 3” at the factory settings. fig.SplitPoint-3-e.eps 1. Hold down the [Split] button and press the key you wish to set as the split point.
26 Performing You can perform while the metronome sounds. RP201 provides a versatile Metronome function. You can adjust the volume or beat of the metronome. If a song is playing, the metronome will sound at the tempo and beat of that song. fig.MetroRP201.
27 Playing Back Songs Here’s how to listen to the internal preset songs. The RP201 provides sixty-five piano songs as internal preset songs. fig.PlusMinPlaySong.eps Selecting a Song 1.

30 Recording You can easily record your performances. You can play back a performance you have recorded to check what and how you played, and play melodies on the keyboard along with prerecorded accompaniment. fig.RecordButtonz-i.eps Performance Settings 1.

36 Various Settings You can divide the keyboard into left and right sections so that two people can play the same range of pitches. This means that you’ll be able to use the keyboard as though it were two separate pianos. For example, this provides a convenient way for one person to follow along with another person’s performance to check it.
37 Various Settings When you press the damper pedal during Dual play or Split play, the damper pedal effect is normally applied to both tones, but you can also select the tone to which the effect is to be applied. 1. Hold down the [Song] button and press the [Metronome] button.
38 Various Settings When playing ensemble with other instruments and in other such instances, you can match the standard pitch to another instrument. The standard pitch generally refers to the pitch of the note that’s played when you finger the middle A key.
39 Various Settings Specifying the Temperament Key When playing with tuning other than equal temperament, you need to specify the Temperament Key for tuning the song to be performed (that is, the note that corresponds to C for a major key or to A for a minor key).
40 Various Settings You can change the volume of the damper pedal resonance. On an acoustic piano, depressing the damper pedal makes the notes you play resonate with other strings, adding rich reverberations and fatness to the sound. The damper pedal on the RP201 recreates this resonance (Damper Resonance) when depressed.
41 Various Settings Here you can make various MIDI-related settings for the RP201. For more about MIDI, refer to “Connecting to MIDI Devices” (p. 47). You can connect the RP201’s MIDI In connector to the MIDI OUT connector on your computer’s MIDI interface and play back separately sold CD-ROMs created for the VIMA (VIMA TUNES).
42 Various Settings 4. Use the [-] [+] buttons to change the setting. 5. Press the [Song] or [Metronome] button to leave Function mode. This setting specifies the MIDI channel on which the RP201 will transmit. MIDI uses sixteen “MIDI channels,” which are numbered 1 through 16.
43 Various Settings Connecting the RP201 to a V-LINK compatible image device allows you to control the images with the RP201. 921 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.
44 Various Settings Normally, the settings of the various variations will revert to their default values when the power is turned off. However, you can specify that the various settings will be remembered even when the power is turned off. This function is called “Memory Backup.
45 Various Settings If you activate the Panel Lock function, all buttons will be locked and non-functional. You can use this to prevent a child from accidentally changing the settings by inadvertently pressing buttons. 1. Hold down the [ ] button for several seconds.
46 Connecting to Other Devices If you connect the RP201 to powered speakers or to an audio system that has line input jacks, you’ll be able to hear the RP201’s sound from your powered speakers or audio system. If you connect your digital audio player or other audio playback device to the RP201, you’ll be able to hear its sound via the RP201.
47 Connecting to Other Devices By connecting an external MIDI device and exchanging performance data, you can control one device from the other. For instance, you can output sound from the other instrument or switch Tones on the other instrument.
48 Connecting to Other Devices You can use a USB MIDI interface cable (sold separately) to connect the RP201 to your computer. If you connect a personal computer on which you’ve installed sequencer .
49 Troubleshooting If you think there’s a problem, read this first. Symptom Cause/Action Page Power does not turn on Is the AC adaptor connected correctly? p. 16 Pedal does not work, or is “stuck” Is the pedal connected correctly? Plug the cord firmly into the pedal connector.
50 Troubleshooting Reverberation remains even if you defeat the Reverb effect The RP201’s piano sound faithfully simulates the depth and resonance of an acoustic piano, and this may give the impression of reverberation even if you’ve defeated the Reverb effect.
51 Error Messages Indication Meaning There is not sufficient free memory in the save destination. Delete unneeded files (p. 32), and try again. The internal memory of the RP201 is full. The RP201 cannot deal with the excessive MIDI data sent from the external MIDI device.
