[. . . ] They provide information concerning the proper operation of the EXR-5/EXR-7. Be sure to keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. No part of this publication may be reproduced in any form without the written permission of Roland Europe S. The EXR-5/EXR-7's sounds are based on full-length (uncompressed) waveforms, which is unique in this price range. [. . . ] Note: Now skip to step (5) if you prefer to enter the Tone number using the numeric key pad ([0]~[9]). That is indeed the only way to select any available Tone. By selecting another family, you immediately jump to the first sound of that group. The first press of SELECT [®] (or []) shows the name of the first Tone within the selected group. It is already selected, so if you need the first sound, there is actually no need to press SELECT [®]. You must use SELECT [] or [®], however, to select another Tone within the same group. Note: This only selects the "best" sounds within the current family (the names printed in bold in the Tone list on p. (5) Use the numeric buttons [0]~[9] to select other sounds within the current family that are skipped by the SELECT buttons. Note: This setting can be saved to a User Program (see p. The TONE buttons allow you to select 7 melodic sounds and one Drum Kit directly (without using [TONE], the FAMILY, SELECT and/or numeric buttons). These buttons are assigned to our "favorite" sounds for the indicated categories, thus allowing you to quickly select "a piano", "a string sound", etc. 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. A "semitone" is one step between a white and a black key (or two adjacent white keys, i. You can also directly enter the desired interval by pressing the corresponding numeric key. To transpose the keyboard down, hold down [­] while pressing [0]~[9] (in that case, you can transpose the pitch down by up to 9 semitones) Here's an example: if you want to hear an "E" every time you play a "C", select "4". All other notes will be shifted by the same amount, so that you end up sounding in E major when you actually play in C major, etc. (3) To switch the Transpose function back off, repeat steps (1) and (2), this time entering the value "0" (no transposition). Note: This setting can be saved to a User Program (see p. Note: There is also a function that allows you to specify which section(s) the Transpose function should apply to. The EXR-5/EXR-7 allows you to transpose the Keyboard parts (Main, Split, Dual) up or down by 4 octaves. To change the octave transposition of a part, hold down [TONE] (Main part), [SPLIT] (Split part) or [DUAL] (Dual part), while pressing [­] (down) or [+] (up). [. . . ] (2) Hold down the [USB], [ONE¥TOUCH] and [ACOUSTIC] buttons while switching the EXR-5/EXR-7 back on again. the display briefly shows "DISABLED". This setting is remembered, so that next time you want to listen to a demo song, you have to repeat the above procedure. Use the following procedure to ensure that the Arranger cannot be started or stopped: (1) Switch off the EXR-5/EXR-7. [. . . ]
