Roland's acclaimed SuperNATURAL Piano Sound Engine evolves with Acoustic Projection technology ? an innovative, multi-dimensional sound system built into the new HP 507. Acoustic Projection is inspired by the flagship V-Piano Grand and its ability to reproduce the natural sound field of an acoustic piano. The marriage of Roland's world-leading technologies in the HP-507 empowers pianists with a complete, immersive acoustic-piano experience. Acoustic Projection delivers it?s magic though a multi-channel speaker system, with each speaker located properly to project each sound element in its natural position. The sound elements from each speaker are intelligently blended to reproduce the true sound field of an acoustic piano.

The HP507 incorporates Roland?s SuperNATURAL Piano technology for seamless velocity response, natural note decay, and authentic key-range behaviour to reproduce perfect piano sound and expression. Tone colour changes seamless in response to touch, accurately translating the player?s emotions. Tone decay is natural and organic, with the decaying sound not only decreasing in volume, but also gradually changing in colour to a softer tone. Each note has its own character, which creates variations in tonal colour and resonance of each note.

In addition to the selection of onboard grand-piano sounds, the HP507 features a newly added Early Piano category containing four fortepiano variations and two harpsichord variations. Masterpieces composed by maestros such as Mozart, Beethoven, and Chopin can be played with the original sounds from the period. You can also play these early piano sounds with built-in historic temperaments which are ideal to play with other classical instruments.

The Roland-HP507 is equipped with Roland?s flagship PHAIII (Progressive Hammer Action III) Ivory Feel keyboard with Escapement. With fast key-repetition and sensitivity, the keyboard faithfully translates into sound the subtle differences in tones from different playing styles and force at which they are played. The keys are finished with material that provides moisture-absorbing properties, resulting in a keyboard with the natural texture and tactile sensation of real ivory and ebony. The built-in recorder lets you capture your performances as audio and/or MIDI data; a convenient feature for pianists as well as students who want to evaluate their playing. Connect an external digital music player to the input jacks, play a song file, and the HP507 can transpose it in real time. You can even minimise the melody of an audio song using Centre Cancel function. Play along and capture your performance as audio data. Recorded audio data can be saved onto USB Memory, and copied to an external computer for making audio CDs or for uploading to the Internet.There's also the addition of the Roland Piano Partner app which can be downloaded via iTunes for the Roland HP500 series pianos along with the DP90 and LX15 models, this IOS app provides a childrens fun game, a content browser and Digiscore which is a graphical representation of a music stave with the notes flowing upon it.

The simple and intuitive control panels afford quick and easy access to the HP507's numerous features and applications. LCD panels provide the ideal visual interface with the instrument. The HP507 achieves low power consumption while still delivering high-impact performance. They also feature an Auto Off function, which, when activated, automatically switches the power off after a specified period of inactivity; inactivity time is selectable from 10 minutes, 30 minutes (default), 240 minutes, and off.
