Thanks, Olga. That was Gary's own improvisation. We can't use anything copyrighted so Gary created his own music! He'll be thrilled to know you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Hi, Olga! Gary just improvised this so he doesn't have it written down anywhere. I'm sorry. We'd be happy to share the music for it if we had any! Thanks for asking!
Roland doesn't replace their models every year or very two years like some of the other manufacturers. We don't know when a new HP model will come out, but we are pretty confident it will not be in 2023. That said, the prices just went down significantly as of July 1. Check it out: www.rivertonpiano.com/online/digital/roland/hp704.php
Please explain the technical and sound differences between Roland HP704, Casio Celviano AP-710 and Kawai CN39. The digital piano will be installed in a 9 sq. m. back panel close to the wall, for teaching a child to play the piano.
This is a long and difficult question to answer, but I will try to keep it simple. The biggest difference is that the Roland HP704 is using behavior modeling instead of sampling (which is what both the Kawai and Casio use). Sampling has a technical limitation of about 128 volume levels per key. The HP704 has over 16,000 dynamic (or volume) levels per key. This means the 704 is far more musical and expressive. The 704's tone is also far more adjustable because it is a model (you can change the variables and make it sound very different). The other pianos are limited by the pianos they recorded. Finally, the Roland piano sound is based on a Hamburg Steinway Model D concert grand piano. The Casio is based on a Bechstein piano and the Kawai is based on a Shigeru Kawai. All in all, Roland has a FAR better service record than Kawai or Casio and it is found on concert stages as often as Yamaha (you'll almost never see a Kawai or Casio on a professional stage). Of the three, I'd definitely recommend the Roland. Best of luck to you!
My mom wishes for a Roland hp605, but I can't find it anywhere here in Sweden, but this one is around. Would this one be similar to the 605? Want to surprise her on christmas :)
What a great thought! In truth, the Roland LX-705 replaced the HP-605. However, the HP-704 is the closest modern Roland to what the HP-605 was. ...so - if you want a 605 - your closest piano right now is the HP-704. I hope that helps!
The HP-605 is discontinued and no longer available. It was very similar to the HP-704, but the new LX-705 is priced and positioned where the HP-605 used to be in Roland's line. The LX-705 has a nicer cabinet and Roland's new "Pure Acoustic" sound chip (with higher resolution, two modeling cores and Pure Acoustic Resonance).
Hi, Steve! Thanks for your question. In truth, the best way to compare those pianos is to play them yourself and decide which one you like best. If you just go by "the numbers," the LX-706 has the best speaker system, the best sound chip and the best key action. It also has the longest warranty. ...but that is why it's the most expensive piano on your list. The HP-704 and LX-705 have the same key action... but it's hard to compare their action with the CSP without physically playing them. I have my preference, but yours may be different. Are you looking for certain features? What is most important to you in your selection process?
Hello and thank you for your question! Putting the HP-704 next to a wall won't change how it sounds. The speakers face forward and down so you'll get the same experience wherever you place the piano. Good luck!
@@RivertonPianoCompany In Russia, factories producing acoustic pianos closed in the 90s of the last century. Now the new acoustic pianos made in China are very expensive. In the aftermarket, used acoustic pianos do not hold the master tuning. All that remains is to choose the digital piano. For home use, I'm thinking of buying a Roland HP704. Due to the coronavirus in musical instrument stores, all goods are on order. There is no way to listen to musical instruments before purchasing. Thank you for your consultation!
I can understand that. Things are so crazy with COVID. I am glad our videos were helpful to you. Stay healthy and thank you for your kind words. Have fun with your new Roland! (I am sure you will love it!)
Hello Riverton Piano Company, any tips on how to protect my new purchased Roland HP 603A from dust? My piano somehow attracts dust, whenever I remove them, they stick back in a matter of seconds, i have deeply cleaned the apartment and purchased air purifier which i put close to the piano, but the dust managed to stay on the keys even when the lid is closed. Lately i started to use a little water wet towel to remove the dust from the piano body ( not the keys) but am not sure whether this is a good or stupid idea. I would like to buy a piano cover for that as well but not sure what type of fabric to use (100% COTTON?).Also what type of cleaning fabric and liquid to use to clean the body and the keys? Bunch of thanks in advance❤
Hello, H, and thank you for your great questions! Actually, dust isn't a big problem for your Roland. Aside from bothering you (which I deeply understand - I HATE dust), the dust itself won't harm the instrument. All of Roland's electronics are sealed inside the piano - so dust cannot get to them. Still, if you want to clean the piano quickly and easily, I recommend a Swiffer Duster. That will get the bulk of the dust off quickly (without just pushing it around). If you really want to go "the extra mile," you can purchase Roland's Premium Care Kit for Satin Digital Pianos (assuming you have a satin finish - go for the 'High Polish' kit if your piano has a shiny finish). The kit costs about $20, but it comes with all the sprays and a pair of microfiber cleaning cloths. You'll love it. www.roland.com/us/products/pck-ss/ Best of luck to you and thanks for a great question!!
@@RivertonPianoCompany Hello, many thanks for the fast and prompt reply. My concern mainly is when the dust accumulate under the keys , while the dust is not such a big problem, the build up may affect the way the keys work or notes sound, right? And i guess if what am assuming is true, cleaning the dust build up would require to open up the instrument, remove the keys and so on, right? Am thinking to go and buy 2m square 100% Cotton fabric and use it as a cover, and my Ronland is charcoal black, can the kit for satin finish you shared works for mine? Many thanks in advance 😊
I totally understand - and you are very welcome. ...but for the dust to build up in any meaningful way, it would take decades and decades. It's just not a problem we encounter in the field. If you want to put a cover on it, that certainly won't hurt anything, but these pianos are designed for rugged use. :) Thanks again for reaching out and for watching our videos! We appreciate you!
One question please, i bought my Roland Piano HP603, i was playing through my headset, and felt warm so i took off my jacket and suddenly i heared very weird noise through the head set, quickly i realized that it happened because of the static electricity from the jacket, i switch off the piano. I put it on again, and i couldnt say whether there is a damage has happened, am worrying a lot in general, and am wondering if really (this happening) my winter jacket could really damage the piano because of the static electricity?
Hello and thanks for your question! Sorry for the delay, but we've been out of town for a special event. The good news is - your Roland is "torture tested" at the factory to avoid damage from a static charge like that. I watched a test where they shocked the piano with a cattle prod and it didn't even flicker (Don't ask me what happened when they poked a few other popular name brands with that cattle prod! Hahaha). ...so the static noise you heard was probably due to something in the headphones - not the piano. You should be fine. Best of luck to you!
Hi, Ryan! Thanks for your questions. Yes and yes. It does have recording features. You can record in MIDI format or AUDIO format - whichever you want. There are also several drum sounds onboard as well as rhythm loops (with the Piano Every Day app). You can do it all! Thanks for watching!
Hi my Roland HP704 would not turn on but the i can play the piano I just cant increase or decrease the volume because it wont turn on any idea what to do??
Sorry, Yuan, that is a mystery to me. If you can play the piano, it's "on." If some controls aren't working, that would definitely be a service issue. I would recommend contacting the dealer you purchased it from and ask for a service repair. It should be covered under warranty. Best of luck to you!
Hello and thanks for stopping by! I wouldn't worry about the 704. This model is pretty young by Roland's standards. I know for sure there won't be a new HP model in 2022... so you might as well take the plunge! Roland STILL supports Piano Partner 2 and Piano Designer (both FAR older apps)... so I am not worried about them discontinuing support for the app. Remember - these pianos (and their software) are updateable... so you shouldn't worry. Get your piano and enjoy!
Just make sure you don't select one of the models Kawai is suspending production on. They've had to cut way back because of the chip shortage. Best of luck!
Hi, VC, and thanks for your question. Yes, the HP-704 uses the newer PHA-50 action. Unlike the older HPA-4 Concert action (which is all resin), the HPA-50 action features a wood/resin hybrid design.

Hi, Ambitious! Thanks for watching and thanks for your question. I highly recommend the Roland HP-704. It has the best warranty (10yr Parts and Labor IN HOME), the best accessory package, the best built-in music, the most functional apps, built-in Bluetooth MIDI *AND* Bluetooth AUDIO, behavior modeling (for a MUCH more "musical" piano sound), the World's first maintenance-free wood action with tri-sensor technology (for the most controlled touch on the market - especially in conjunction with the sound chip), the most durable cabinetry and the best service record in the business. That is why so many professional pianists, schools and churches use Rolands. Try one. You'll see!
@@RivertonPianoCompany Excuse me for bothering you again. If I stretch my budget I could get Yamaha CLP645, Kawai CA58 or Roland LX705. Is it worth it? Which one would you recommend if I could stretch my budget? Thank you so much!
No bother at all! That is what we're here for! If cabinetry is important to you, you could move up to the LX-705. It has the same key action, but a new sound chip, better looking cabinet and larger speakers. It's not much more money either. ...but I am not a big fan of Kawais (I have sold them... and we had a ton of service issues) so I can't recommend that to you. The CLP is a nice piano (we carry them too), but it has half the warranty, 1/10th the number of sounds NO Bluetooth MIDI, a heavier key touch and a weaker cabinet. I'd stay stick with the 704 or - if you want that upright piano look - go with the 705. Good luck!
Hi, George! Thanks for your question. I would check with your local Roland dealer for current pricing. There are some Holiday Specials coming up... so it's worth looking in on them! www.roland.com/us/dealer_locator/hp704/
That one's easy! Just press Piano Designer. The first option is Key Touch. Press the Control Knob (to the right of the screen) and dial Key Touch all the way to the left until it says FIX. You're done!

I'd stay stick with the 704 or - if you want that upright piano look - go with the 705. Good luck!
Shame I can't find one anywhere in the country! 😫
They are hard to get. We only have a few left ourselves!
How much USD is this
Hi, George! Thanks for your question. I would check with your local Roland dealer for current pricing. There are some Holiday Specials coming up... so it's worth looking in on them! www.roland.com/us/dealer_locator/hp704/
How can i remove the touch sensitivite?
That one's easy! Just press Piano Designer. The first option is Key Touch. Press the Control Knob (to the right of the screen) and dial Key Touch all the way to the left until it says FIX. You're done!
i cant find an app named piano everyday?
Hi, Selest! Roland discontinued Piano Every Day late last year and replaced it with this new app: th-cam.com/video/Ga5WbXlI-1I/w-d-xo.html
