Re: [disklavier] Piano volume too high

2014-01-26 by Spencer Chase

if you use midi files or convert them to audio encoded midi using 
mid2pianocd, you can batch process the loudness of the files using my 
midimod2 program. you can find it on the download page of my web site. 
if you want to play at background level you are probably better off 
playing the stereo. once you mess with the dynamic structure of the 
music too much it loses its musicality.
