I never got the Giebler to format the 1.44 M diskette and I have the latest version (I think!). That's when I started buying the 720k disks by the case. The display of song numbers on the control box only goes to 99, so I wouldn't bother putting more than 99 midi files on a disk. Giebler's file format is identical to the ESEQ format and will play on the older Disklaviers. I did not mention the Giebler utility (cost $59 from www.giebler.com) because the dkvutils are free. The nice thing about all these utility programs is that they let you put just the songs you want on a floppy, or to make back up copies of your original disks.
