Disklavier

CDs that play on a Disklaviers (or Pianomation or PianoDisc for that matter) 
use a digital to analog converter to put MIDI information on them.  THat is 
why you can't burn MIDI files directly to a CD; put the CD into the DKV CD 
player; and have the piano play.  The proprietary stuff is whether the MIDI 
info is on the Left or Right channel.

What is really different about the Yamaha CDs is that there is MIDI channel 
that plays the piano keys, MIDI info that plays the ensemble, and an audio 
track that plays through a different amplifier.  In version 4.20, the 
Transpose function works on all 3 of these.  I never heard audio transpose 
with the MIDI like that!

To back up a Yamaha CD (or any Pianodisc or QRS CD) the disk copy of your CD 
burner software works just fine.
