Disklavier

Hi Carol

I too have tried to get this to work. From what I can remember it 
would play from a floppy but not from the hard disk.
I fail to see the point of putting a floppy in the pc to play as one 
might as well put the floppy in the piano.

What I want to see is a program that will play Eseq files just like a 
Midi player would.  That way I can play the piano from the PC and 
create play lists and draw from over 200 disks.
