Expand Your Learning and View Digital Sheet
Music with High-Resolution DigiScore
Roland’s acclaimed DigiScore technology puts an advanced environment for learning and enjoying music right inside your piano. Digital sheet music is displayed on the large, built-in color LCD, with the ability to show 32nd notes and up to 48 measures of music at one time. In addition, the Auto Sync feature ensures that the onscreen notation perfectly follows your performance regardless of your tempo, with the digital pages turned in sync as well. Onboard exercises make sharpening your skills challenging and fun, as do numerous features such as the graphical metronome, onscreen keyboard, Fingering Number display, and many others.
Additional Songs to Help You Learn Sight Reading
From the world-famous Bastien Piano Library learning method, 93 songs from Sight Reading Level 1 are onboard the HPi50e (with ver.1.10 operating system). The Medal Collection application evaluates the accuracy of your performance by checking if the correct notes were played immediately after your performance – it’s a highly effective way for beginners to learn sight reading faster.
Develop Essential Piano Techniques with
Notation-Based Programs
A wide variety of interactive practice features offer solid support for developing piano skills. The Finger Training course displays the “finger power” in both hands on screen while playing the built-in Hanon exercises, and the Visual Lesson application identifies areas in the digital sheet music that you need to work on. These and other features provide powerful tools to improve your playing, no matter whether you’re a beginner just starting out or an advanced pianist who has been playing for years.
Motivate Your Children to Practice with Fun
Skill-Building Games
Students will enjoy the HPi-50e’s friendly, interactive DigiScore games, which provide a fresh, innovative way to learn at their own pace. For example, the DoReMi Course is a no-pressure review on music reading and fingering techniques, while the Scroll Game lets you play along with a graphical piano roll on the display. Also included is the Medal Collection application, which awards gold, silver, or bronze medals based on accuracy while playing along with the built-in songs. Challenging and entertaining, the games are great fun for children and adults alike.
Compose Songs and Create Charts and Lesson
Materials
The HPi-50e’s 16-part song recorder is great for developing composition skills, and also provides an ideal way for piano teachers to create original lesson materials for their students. You can build a song by recording up to 16 individual parts one at a time, each with their own unique sounds. Once completed, your songs can be saved as WAV audio files to optional USB flash memory, where they can then be transferred to a computer for CD creation or Internet sharing. You can also create music notation from a song with DigiScore, saving it as a BMP file to USB memory so you can print it from your computer. This provides a quick and easy way for teachers to create charts that are customized for individual students.
