RE: [disklavier] How do you make a PianoSoft Plus Audio CD?

2001-10-03 by vincentdeleur

When you play a CD from soft plus audio on a normal CD player you'll hear in
stead of the piano part a lot of high beeps, this means that the midi
information is not midi at all at the CD.
Copying is simple, just do it on the PC, with Nero burning or what ever....
But making a softplua audio CD by yourself is still impossible. In a sequens
programm like Cakewalk or Yamaha XHG works 3.0 you can record both midi and
audio, but this will not do.
I am trying to find out with my collegues of Yamaha Europe how they fix this
.

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.
