RE: [disklavier] twang, twang twang...

2002-09-22 by Budds

HI,

My name is Buddhika and I live in Sri Lanka where there aren’t many
Disklaviers or people who know about them around. I am thinking of
buying a second hand one soon, (one from what's available over here). I
realized that there are several types. I would like to know the
difference in the models Mark I, Mark II and Mark II models and the file
formats.

1) The mark I says the recording format is Yamaha E-Seq
2) The mark II says Satanded MIDI file (format0, Format1)/E-Seq
3) Also What is XG and GM, 

4) Do's the Satanded Midi mean that I could get the disklavier to play
Midi files such as the once down loaded from the internet instead of
only Piano soft music?

5) Can I get a PSR 740 or a PSR 2000 coupled to the disklaver through
Midi and get it to play the a compliments such as Rithum, base, and left
hand strings etc while I play the piano left and right hand parts?

6) what does the DCD1 player exactly do?

Many thanks.
Rgds

Perhaps you have downloaded a MIDI format 0 file?  Convert to a MIDI
format 
1 file and see if there are more tracks.
