Here's how I answered Mel... My understanding is that on a Pro model you should be able to replace your control unit and, by doing so, get the latest features. The Pros already came with the latest level of solenoids (mechanicals) as the Mark III pianos. Your current control unit should be a DKC500RW. You should be able to unplug the 15-wire cable in the back, and replace it with the latest control unit, the DKC55RCD (which you should be able to buy from your dealer). This should give you CD playback and access to the PianoSmart recordings. Note an unexpected limitation of the DKC55RCD (if you're computer literate): the CD player cannot play MIDI files so don't expect to download a bunch of MIDI files from the Internet, cut them onto a CD-R on your computer, and carry them to the piano. You'll still need the diskette drive to play and record MIDI files. John Q. Walker
