Hello, Setup: Disklavier Upright MarkIIXG, Power Tracks Audio software. I am very new to the MIDI concept. I just recently started trying to play MIDI files on my disklavier. However, I can never seem to get the piano part to play on the Piano and not through the speakers. Last night I made a copy of one of my Pianosoft disks, using the dkvutils from the yahoo file section to a DD disk. The copy plays perfectly on the system. I then copied one of the .fil files to my harddisk and converted it to MIDI using the eseq2midi. I then opened the file in Power tracks and it asks if I would like to extract the channels, I selected yes ( I also tried no with the same outcome). Then I took that one file and put it on a blank disk, thinking I should be able to play the file on the piano, no luck everything goes through the speakers. I read in the manuals and some searches through the archives that the piano part must be on channel 1. I tried using the PowerTracks rechannel ( not sure if I even did this right ) function but that produces the same result. I have the same problem with files I have downloaded from the internet. I am pretty sure I have the disklavier set to play channel 1. There has to be something basic I am missing to allow the piano to play. Any help or websites that might shed some light on the problem would be much appreciated. Thanks, Jim
