Built into the music rest at an ideal
height for easy viewing, the
DigiScore LCD display shows preinstalled songs, MIDI files,
and recorded music. Just touch a button and internal music
starts playing on the screen, which displays the score in an
easy-to-follow format — complete with a metronomic onscreen
bouncing ball that bounces across the notes as they are played.
The music comes alive right before your eyes.
DigiScore is fully integrated with
the educational features of the HPi Series.
If you stumble in the middle of a piece, simply step on the
Replay Pedal. That stops the music so you can start over again;
your hands never have to leave the keyboard.

Wonderland is where learning meets fun
Wonderland teaches kids all about sound and rhythm in an
adventurous, exciting way:
● The colorful menu is the gateway to eight entertaining games.
● Learn how to read music and improve pitch with Flashcards
With the Twin Piano function (HPi-6), two can play
The Twin Piano function splits the keyboard so two players can
play simultaneously, in the same register — an innovative, fun
way for teachers and students, parents and children, or a pair of
friends to practice together.
And the fun goes on
● To add to your playing pleasure, you have a wide variety
of different tones to choose from, including electric
piano, harpsichord, organ, strings, and more.
● In Dual Mode you can play with two voices at once to
create new sound variations. In Split Mode you can
divide the keyboard into two sections, each with a
distinct sound.
● Turn your HPi-7 LE or HPi-7 into a “backup player” for
you: With the Pianist function, the piano automatically
accompanies you in a variety of preset genres.
● Plug a microphone into the HPi-7 LE
or HPi-7 and sing Karaoke-style
along with MIDI files. Connect to
an external display (HPi-7 LE ) for larger
images and easier viewing.
● For late night rehearsal or practicing in close quarters,
use the headphones; an indicator light comes on when
they’re plugged in. When you’re
finished with them, you can keep
them handy on the hook just under
the keyboard.
