+++ Possibly . . . if Cakewalk Home Studio 2002 can play any MIDI file, 
the source whether floppy, HD, or CD is irrelevant.  Before you buy the 
program though, make sure it will modify note velocities--something you 
will probably want to do sometime.  If you don't already have the 
program, consider PG Music's Power Tracks


  What is the physical hardware set-up?


A laptop with a CD drive and external MIDI interface (MIDI Sport 1 X 1), 
and a MIDI cable to your DKV.  You'd also need a computer with a CD-R 
burner.

+++ Here's an example of one of mine:

PianoSoft\1076-MSC=Phantom of the Opera - Keveren\08-Wishing You Were 
Somehow Here.mid

  Can I copy files from Yamaha PianoSoft disks

+++ Sure.  You will need the Giebler Utilities or the utilities 
downloadable from this site.

  Thanks for your help.   Jim
