Re: [disklavier] Comments on the new Enspire Disklavier

Dan,

Thanks for the post! I have the 1st  Wagon Grand in the U.S. and I have a Mark IV (which is now 2 generations old...)

I love them both. They continue to do everything I wanted them to do at the time of buying them.

The issue of placing digital technology in acoustic music instruments that last generations, poses a number of problems. Today's technology is old technology tomorrow.

Technology moves on and my Disklaviers keep playing!

We have had a C3 Wagon Disklavier that we purchased second hand over 14 years ago. We added a DSR1 about 12 years ago connecting it to a laptop computer.

In that time we have never had a failure or a problem. 

I have purchased Music Soft disks and convertered them to digital without difficulty.

I have collected thousands of playable midis from the interent,some of which are absolutely outstanding.

My wife  plays piano, I am a midi mechanic.We have had choir proactice with midis in our home.

To date I have not seen a new variation of Disklavier that surpasses what a computer and a Disklavier can produce. 

An outstanding instrument, wonderfully reliable electronics, tens of thousands of midis, and a community of supportive and active users.

Old TECH  is good too! &n bsp; LOL.
