Play music wirelessly through to the FP-30X’s built-in speakers

If you’re a gigging musician, it’s also super helpful when learning new songs to just be able to stream them to the piano as you learn.

Roland Bluetooth Apps

The FP-30X is also able to communicate via Bluetooth MIDI to apps such as Roland’s Piano Every Day which is a free download for iOS or Android devices.

Because staying engaged and motivated is so important, Piano everyday has a built-in practise diary, backing rhythms for jamming, full remote control of the piano’s functions, and access to Sheet Music Direct, the world’s largest online sheet music store, all right in the app. This allows you to browse a vast selection of scores spanning every musical genre, from classical, pop, and jazz to movie soundtracks, holiday songs, and beyond. Because variety is important!

One of the amazing things about the FP-30X is its incredible SuperNatural piano sound engine.

If you long for the detail and character of a good acoustic piano, then the quality and accuracy of FP-30X’s piano sounds will amaze you. This is because modelling technology creates the most realistic behaviour for the these sounds allowing you to immerse yourself in your playing.

If you are all about creating your own unique and personal sound, then you will love the free Piano Designer app for Android & iOS.

It also connects via Bluetooth MIDI and allows you to fine tune your FP-30X to a level not possible on the piano’s front panel. Adjust string and damper resonance settings as well as key-off resonance. You can even voice and tune individual notes on the pianos. This level of detail and control was not possible on the previous model FP-30. The FP-30X certainly punches well above its weight as a professional stage piano.

FP-30X Bluetooth “How-To”

Connecting Bluetooth audio to stream music to your FP-30X speakers

The best way is always to connect Bluetooth audio first as per below instructions. The connection for Bluetooth MIDI is made in the Piano everyday app. If you do not wish to use Bluetooth audio you can always disconnect it in your phone’s settings once Bluetooth MIDI is connected.

NOTE: Even if the “Devices” field shows the name of the device you’re using (such as “FP-30X MIDI”), do no t tap it.

2. Start the Piano Every Day app on your device and make sure that your device is connected to the internet.

3 Tap the menu located in the lower right of the app screen, and then in the menu screen tap “Bluetooth.” Piano everyday will then scan for available devices and detect your FP-30X.

The piano and mobile device will then pair. A pop-up may occur (depending on your device) asking for a pairing request , accept the pairing request. When pairing is completed, a display like the following appears.

Make sure that the piano’s Bluetooth function is “On ”

1. While holding down the [Function] button, press the keyboard’s A0 key.

The piano’s Bluetooth function turns on.

Exit all apps on your mobile device

Closing the app

The way to exit an app may differ depending on your mobile device. Exit the apps using the method that’s appropriate for your mobile device.

If already paired, cancel pairing, and turn off the Bluetooth function

1. In the mobile device’s screen, tap the “i” located beside “Connected,” and tap “Forget This Device.”

Re-start the pairing process from the beginning starting with Bluetooth audio as per above instructions.

If you are using any other apps that have Bluetooth MIDI functionality the FP-30X will show as available for connection if correctly paired within Piano Everyday.
