Grand Piano Sound The flagship HP207 features Roland’s finest 88-key piano sound, comprising individual multi-samples for every key and true-to-life piano resonance. The HP-207 is touch responsive to the subtlest pressure and nuance — from the deepest, most powerful bass to the most delicate highs.

PHA II Ivory Feel with Escapement and Natural Key sides The HP-207 incorporates Roland’s PHA II “Ivory Feel” keyboard with Escapement. This amazing new keyboard technology reproduces the feel of ivory for the natural keys and ebony for the sharps. The natural keys have a 2-piece structure, which consists of base- and surface-material layers. This reproduces the stability and comfort of an acoustic-piano keyboard. This next-generation keyboards feature a redesigned progressive hammer-action mechanism for a natural touch response from pianissimo to fortissimo. In addition, the HP-series’ acclaimed Escapement feature comes on the HP-207, recreating the “click feel” of an acoustic grand.

“Piano Designer” Sound Customization For those who wish to customize the HP-207’s piano sound to suit their personal taste, the Piano Designer feature allows friendly access to a variety of tone-shaping controls. Create your perfect custom sound, and save it for instant recall.

File Playback via USB The HP-207 can play songs by itself —ideal for parties and gatherings. Simply import a Standard MIDI File via USB and enjoy as the HP-207 plays the music automatically. Whether in a lounge or living room, hotel or concert hall, the HP-207 will bring any environment to life. The USB Host port also supports WAV file types, and you can actually transpose the audio in real time.

*Note: While the HP-207 can play songs automatically, it does not have the player-piano-type “moving keys” feature.

Play and Sing Along More than just a great piano, the HP-207 can also play back audio CDs from an optional USB CD drive (commercially available) for play-along fun. There’s even a Center Cancel feature for minimizing pre-recorded vocals so you can play and sing along to your favorite CDs. There are also 70 internal songs.

Elegant Cabinet The HP-207 is built into an attractive, elegant cabinet with front legs and a Half Key-Cover that slides out to cover the front-panel controls. The lid not only serves a child lock, it allows you to concentrate on your performance while enhancing the HP-207’s authentic look.
