Disklavier

Good question!  I was referring to floppy disks.  I think the CDs work also, 
but the audio and midi are on different channels than the Yamaha disks.  One 
has audio on the Right, and MIDI information on the left; and the other is 
just the opposite.  I know for sure that the QRS cd's work on the Mark II 
Disklaviers with the Midiman conversion box, but I have never tried the 
PianoDisc CDs.

On the Mark III DKVs with the built in CD player, I doubt that PianoDisc CDs 
play the audio as well as the MIDI.  But then again, I have not tried them.

I don't think anyone has figured out a way to take files off the CDs, 
whether they are Yamaha, QRS or PianoDisc, and convert or edit them.  If so, 
I would certainly like to know how the MIDI track was separated from the 
audio track.  That's the reason I think the floppies are more useful than 
CDs.  I didn't buy my Disklavier to listen to people singing, but that's 
just my own preference.
