Introduction
Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the HP203. To ensure that you obtain
the maximum enjoyment and take full advantage of the HP203’s functionality, please
read this owner’s manual carefully.
You should first read the “Before You Play” section of the owner’s manual (this
document). This explains how to connect the power cord and turn on the power.
This owner’s manual explains everything from basic operations that use the HP203’s
playback functions to more advanced operations, such as using the HP203 to record a
song.
In order to explain the operations as clearly as possible, this manual uses the following
conventions.
• Text enclosed in square brackets [ ] indicates the name of a button or a knob, such as the
[Piano] button.
• Lines that begin with
or an asterisk * are cautionary statements that you must be sure
to read.
• The numbers of pages that you can turn to for additional, related information are given like
this: (p. **).
Piano sounds with rich resonance and wide expressive range
This instrument features a piano sound generator that utilizes stereo sampling, so it is
capable of faithfully recreating the sound of a high-quality concert grand piano,
realistically reproducing even the finest details, including the sound of the hammers
striking the strings. With a maximum polyphony of 128 notes, it has ample capability
even for performances that make full use of pedaling.
More than three hundred different sounds covering not only piano but a wide range of
instruments are built-in. You can also play drum sets from the keyboard.
