Important Notes
291b
In addition to the items listed under IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS and USING THE UNIT SAFELY on pages 2 and 3, please read and observe the following:
Power Supply 301
Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.
307
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
308
Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the unit has been completely disconnected from the source of power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into which you choose to connect the power cords plug should be one that is within easy reach.
Placement 351
Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the source of inter- ference.
352a
This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
352b
Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initi- ating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.
353
Observe the following when using the units floppy disk drive. For further details, refer to Before Using Floppy Disks (p. 6). Do not place the unit near devices that produce a
strong magnetic field (e.g., loudspeakers). Install the unit on a solid, level surface. Do not move the unit or subject it to vibration while
the drive is operating. 354b
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area of the unit for extended periods of time. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
355b
When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.
356
Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.
358
Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard or pedal board. This can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing to produce sound.
359
Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument. Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior finish.
Maintenance 401b
To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is slightly dampened. Try to wipe the entire surface using an equal amount of strength, moving the cloth along with the grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can damage the finish.
402
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Repairs and Data 452
Please be aware that all data contained in the units memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs. Important data should always be backed up on a floppy disk, or written down on paper (when possible). During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data. However, in certain cases (such as when circuitry related to memory itself is out of order), we regret that it may not be possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
Additional Precautions 551
Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that you periodically save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the units memory on a floppy disk.
552
Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored on a floppy disk once it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
553
Use a reasonable amount of care when using the units buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
554
Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display. 555
A small amount of noise may be heard from the display during normal operation.

Important Notes
AT-45_e.book 6
556
When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itselfnever pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cables internal elements.
557
A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation.
558a
To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the units volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night).
559b
When you need to transport the unit, pack it in shock- absorbent material. Transporting the unit without doing so can cause it to become scratched or damaged, and could lead to malfunction.
560
Do not apply undue force to the music rest while it is in use.
562
Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using some other make of connection cable, please note the following precautions. Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For infor- mation on cable specifications, contact the manufac- turer of the cable.
565
Before opening or closing the keyboard lid, always make sure that no pets or other small animals are located on top of the instrument (in particular, they should be kept away from the keyboard and its lid). Otherwise, due to the structural design of this instrument, small pets or other animals could end up getting trapped inside it. If such a situation is encountered, you must immediately switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the outlet. You should then consult with the retailer from whom the instrument was purchased, or contact the nearest Roland Service Center.
Before Using Floppy Disks Handling the Floppy Disk Drive 602
Install the unit on a solid, level surface in an area free from vibration.
603
Avoid using the unit immediately after it has been moved to a location with a level of humidity that is greatly different than its former location. Rapid changes in the environment can cause condensation to form inside the drive, which will adversely affect the operation of the drive and/or damage floppy disks. When the unit has been moved, allow it to become accustomed to the new environment (allow a few hours) before operating it.
604
To insert a disk, push it gently but firmly into the drive it will click into place. To remove a disk, press the EJECT button firmly. Do not use excessive force to remove a disk which is lodged in the drive.
605a
Never eject a disk while reading or writing is in progress, since that can damage the magnetic surface of the disk, rendering it unusable. (The disk drives indicator will light up at full brightness when the drive is busy reading or writing data. Ordinarily, the indicator will be less brightly lit, or be extinguished.)
606
Remove any disk from the drive before powering up or down.
607
To prevent damage to the disk drives heads, always try to hold the floppy disk in a level position (not tilted in any direction) while inserting it into the drive. Push it in firmly, but gently. Never use excessive force.
608
To avoid the risk of malfunction and/or damage, insert only floppy disks into the disk drive. Never insert any other type of disk. Avoid getting paper clips, coins, or any other foreign objects inside the drive.
Handling Floppy Disks 651
Floppy disks contain a plastic disk with a thin coating of magnetic storage medium. Microscopic precision is required to enable storage of large amounts of data on such a small surface area. To preserve their integrity, please observe the following when handling floppy disks: Never touch the magnetic medium inside the disk. Do not use or store floppy disks in dirty or dusty areas. Do not subject floppy disks to temperature extremes
(e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle). Recom- mended temperature range: 10 to 50 C (50 to 122 F).
Do not expose floppy disks to strong magnetic fields, such as those generated by loudspeakers.
652
Floppy disks have a write protect tab which can protect the disk from accidental erasure. It is recommended that the tab be kept in the PROTECT position, and moved to the WRITE position only when you wish to write new data onto the disk.
653
The identification label should be firmly affixed to the disk. Should the label come loose while the disk is in the drive, it may be difficult to remove the disk.
654
Store all disks in a safe place to avoid damaging them, and to protect them from dust, dirt, and other hazards. By using a dirty or dust-ridden disk, you risk damaging the disk, as well as causing the disk drive to malfunction.
655
Disks containing performance data for this unit should always be locked (have their write protect tab slid to the Protect position) before you insert them into the drive on some other unit (except the PR-300, or a product in the HP-G, MT, KR, or Atelier families), or into a computers drive. Otherwise (if the write protect tab remains in the Write position), when you perform any disk operations using the other devices disk drive (such as checking the contents of the disk, or loading data), you risk rendering the disk unreadable by this units disk drive.

The AT-45 allows you to store sound settings and panel settings in the Registration buttons. The AT-45 has a total of eight registration buttons, and one set of panel settings can be registered to each button, for a total of eight types of panel settings. Each set of panel settings that has been stored in a Registration button is called a Registration.
This provides a convenient way to change large numbers of panel settings during a performance, or to recall a complex panel setting.
fig.03-02
About the Registration Buttons In addition to assigning voices and rhythms to the Registration buttons, you can also store the following settings: Panel button settings (for example, settings for the Level [] [] buttons
and Solo [To Lower] button) Controller settings (functions assigned to foot switches, pitch bend
range, etc.) Other types of settings (reverb type, tempo settings, degree of initial
touch, etc.)
If you would like to know all of the settings that can be recorded to the Registration buttons, refer to Settings That Are Stored After the Power Is Turned Off (p. 214).
Furthermore, you can group the settings assigned to the Registration [1][8] buttons as a single set, and then register and save up to a maximum of 99 sets onto a single floppy disk (p. 88).
In addition to the settings recorded to the Registration buttons, the following data is also saved when Registration sets are saved to floppy disks. Registration Name p. 84 Registration Shift p. 106 Arranger Update p. 82 Trans. Update (Transpose Update) p. 174 Exp. Curve (Expression Pedal Curve) p. 108
Settings that have been stored to Registration buttons [1][8] are remembered even if the power is turned off. If you wish to restore the settings stored in the Registration buttons to their factory settings, use the Factory Reset operation (p. 19).

Arrange the Registrations in the sequence they are to be used
Save the Registration sets to the floppy disk in the order they are to be used in the song. You can use the Disk Edit function to alter the sequence and names of rhythms contained on the floppy disk (p. 84, p. 98) as well as delete such rhythms (p. 96).
Using Registration Sets Call up the Registration sets saved on the floppy disk to the AT-45

Playing Back SMF Music Files and Performance Data on Disks In addition to playing back the music you recorded on the instrument and saved to a floppy disk, AT-45 also lets you enjoy a wide variety of commercially available song files, such as defined below.
To play back only one song
1. Hold the floppy disk with the label facing upwards, and push it into the disk drive until it clicks into place.
The disk drive is on the right side of the unit, above the keyboard. fig.02-18_50
NOTE
Never eject a disk while reading or writing is in progress, since that can damage the magnetic surface of the disk, rendering it unusable. (The disk drives indicator will light up at full brightness when the drive is busy reading or writing data. Ordinarily, the indicator will be less brightly lit, or be extinguished.)
SMF Music Files
The Standard MIDI File (SMF) format was designed to provide a means for exchanging performance data among a wide variety of devices. In addition to the song files described earlier, the AT-45 is also capable of playing back any Standard MIDI File compatible with the General MIDI 2 or GS formats.

Some notes on a Notation screen
When you start playback of music files, the marks appears. While this appears on the notation, the AT-45 is reading data. Please wait until reading of the data is complete.
In the Notation screen, some lyrics or notes could extend beyond the edges of the screen, and not be displayed.
The notations that are presented by the display are produced based on the music files. Viewing ease is given priority over precise expression when dealing with complex, high-level music. Because of this, you may find that the notation shown in the display does not match what is provided on commercially available sheet music. The notation display feature is particularly unsuitable for the display of difficult, complex musical works that demand accurate notation. In addition, the display cannot show notes that are briefer than a sixteenth note.
If you select a part that does not contain performance data, notes will not be displayed in the notation. Use
If you use the buttons located below the display to change the displayed part while the song is playing, the song may be played back from the beginning.

Chapter 11 Connecting with External Device
AT-45_e.book 186
Connecting MIDI Devices By connecting an external MIDI device and exchanging performance data, you can control the performances on one device from the other. For instance, you can output sound from the other instrument or switch Tones on the other instrument.
Whats MIDI? MIDI, short for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, was developed as a standard for the exchange of performance data between electronic instruments and computers.
The AT-45 is equipped with MIDI connectors to let it exchange performance data with external devices. These connectors can be used to connect the AT-45 to an external device for even greater versatility.
About MIDI Connectors The AT-45 has two kinds of MIDI connectors.
Connecting these to the MIDI connectors on a MIDI instrument makes it possible for the two instruments to control each other.
For instance, you can output sound from the other instrument or switch tones on the other instrument.
You should also set the MIDI send channel as needed. fig.
MIDI Out Connector The notes played on the keyboard, movements of the Damper pedal, Expression data, data indicating that a Registration button, etc., was pressed will be transmitted to the external MIDI connector. The Solo voice will be transmitted only if the Solo [To Lower] button is ON.
MIDI In Connector Performance messages from an external MIDI device are received here.
These incoming messages may instruct the receiving MIDI instrument to play sounds or switch tones.
The AT-45 contains two sound generators: one sound generator for its own keyboards and one GS sound generator (p. 213). Normally, musical data transmitted from an external device to the MIDI In connector is sent to the GS sound generator, but you can also set the MIDI IN Mode parameter (p. 179) so that the keyboard sound generator is controlled.
Making the Connections
NOTE
When connecting, turn on power to your various devices in the order specified. Failure to follow these steps in the order given could cause a malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other equipment.
1. Turn the volume all the way down on the AT-45 and on the device youre about to connect.
2. Switch off the power to the AT-45 and the device youre about to connect.
3. Use a MIDI cable (sold separately) to connect the MIDI connectors to each other.
4. Switch on the power to the AT-45 and the connected device.
5. Adjust the volume level on the AT-45 and the connected device.
6. You should also set the MIDI send channel as needed (p. 180).
A separate publication titled MIDI Implementation is also available. It provides complete details concerning the way MIDI has been implemented on this unit. If you should require this publication (such as when you intend to carry out byte-level programming), please contact the nearest Roland Service Center or authorized Roland distributor.

Chapter 11 Connecting with External Device
AT-45_e.book 187
Connecting a Computer You can connect between your computer and the MIDI connector of the AT-45 using a Roland UM-1 or similar USB MIDI interface cable (sold separately).
If the AT-45 is connected to a computer in which sequencer software such as EDIROLs Visual MT is installed, a song youve recorded on the AT-45 can be saved on your computer.
Connection examples
NOTE
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.
* In order to make connections to your computer, you must
install MIDI driver software on your computer. For details,
refer to the owners manual for your MIDI interface.

The Bass Range Sounds Odd, or There Is a Vibrating Resonance.
Playing at loud volumes may cause instruments near the AT-45 to resonate. Resonance can also occur with fluorescent light tubes, glass doors, and other objects. In particular, this problem occurs more easily when the bass component is increased, and when the sound is played at higher volumes.
Use the following measures to suppress such resonance. Place speakers so they are 10-15 cm from walls and other surfaces.
Reduce the volume.
Move the speakers away from any resonating objects.
- - -
When listening through headphones: Here, a different cause (such as resonance produced by the AT-45) would be suspect.
Consult your Roland dealer or nearest Roland Service Center.

Glossary
Arrangement This refers to changes that have been made in an original tune, by adding a new accompaniment or by changing the instruments used.
Automatic Accompaniment Automatic Accompaniment is automatic accompaniment when just a few keys in the lower section of the keyboard are pressed to specify the chord.
Basic Chord This refers to the most commonly used types of chord, which are generally the following six types: major chords, minor chords, minor seventh chords, minor seventh (5) chords, dominant seventh chords, and diminished seventh chords.
Chord Notes of two or more pitches sounded simultaneously. Chords consisting of three notes are called triads, and are the most basic type of chord.
Chorus An effect that adds spaciousness and richness to the sound.
Ending This is the last part of the accompaniment. When you stop playing the Automatic Accompaniment, the AT-45 plays an Ending appropriate for the Rhythm.
Glide An effect that temporarily lowers the pitch and then gradually returns it to normal.
Intro This is the introductory portion of an Automatic Accompaniment performance. The AT-45 plays an intro ideally suited to each Rhythm when it starts playing the Automatic Accompaniment.
Inversion When the lowest note of a chord is the root, the chord is said to be in root position. In contrast, forms of a chord in which other notes are the lowest pitch are called inversions.
Mute To silence a sound. The AT-45 provides a Track Mute function that allows you to turn off the track button indicator of a track on which music data has been recorded, so that the corresponding track will temporarily be silenced.
Panel Settings Settings such as sound selections, tempo, Rotary fast/slow.
Pitch Bend An effect that smoothly raises or lowers the pitch.
Registration A unit of data that contains the performance state of the instrument, such as sound selections and panel settings.
Reverb An effect that simulates the reverberation of a room or concert hall.
Root Note The root note is the basis of a chord. All chords are built on a root note, which is the part of the chord name given in uppercase letters.
Rotary An effect which simulates the modulation given to the sound when a rotating speaker is used. The Rotary effect produces two types of modulation: fast or slow.
Split A function which allows the keyboard to be divided into two or more areas, and a different sound assigned to each area. The point at which the keyboard is divided is called the Split Point.
Sustain An effect that adds a decay to each note. The AT-45 allows sustain to be applied to the voices of the upper part, lower part, and pedal part.
Vibrato An effect that cyclically modulates the pitch.
Voice The AT-45 is able to produce the sounds of various instruments. These sounds are called Voices.

About ATELIER Series Sound Generator
The ATELIER series come equipped with GM2/GS sound generators.
General MIDI
General MIDI is a set of recommendations which seeks to provide a way to go beyond the limitations of proprietary designs, and standardize the MIDI capabilities of sound generating devices. Sound generating devices and music files that meet the General MIDI standard bear the General MIDI
logo ( ).
Music files bearing the General MIDI logo can be played back using any General MIDI sound generating unit to produce essentially the same musical performance.
General MIDI 2
The upwardly compatible General MIDI 2 ( )
recommendations pick up where the original General MIDI left off, offering enhanced expressive capabilities, and even greater compatibility. Issues that were not covered by the original General MIDI recommendations, such as how sounds are to be edited, and how effects should be handled, have now been precisely defined. Moreover, the available sounds have been expanded. General MIDI 2 compliant sound generators are capable of reliably playing back music files that carry either the General MIDI or General MIDI 2 logo. In some cases, the conventional form of General MIDI, which does not include the new enhancements, is referred to as General MIDI 1 as a way of distinguishing it from General MIDI 2.
GS format
The GS Format ( ) is Rolands set of specifications for
standardizing the performance of sound generating devices. In addition to including support for everything defined by the General MIDI, the highly compatible GS Format additionally offers an expanded number of sounds, provides for the editing of sounds, and spells out many details for a wide range of extra features, including effects such as reverb and chorus. Designed with the future in mind, the GS Format can readily include new sounds and support new hardware features when they arrive.
SMF with Lyrics
SMF with Lyrics refers to SMF (Standard MIDI File) that contains the lyrics. When music files carrying the SMF with Lyrics logo are played back on a compatible device (one bearing the same logo), the lyrics appears in its display.
XGlite
XG is a tone generator format of YAMAHA Corporation, that defines the ways in which voices are expanded or edited and the structure and type of effects, in addition to the General MIDI 1 specification. XGlite is a simplified version of XG tone generation format. You can play back any XG music files using an XGlite tone generator. However, keep in mind that some music files may play back differently compared to the original files, due to the reduced set of control parameters and effects.
