The Contois "Piano Player" Version 1.0 (1997) did not play E-SEQ files 
directly. Menu functions were available to import a "*.esq" file, 
convert it to MIDI type 0 or 1, save the MIDI file, then import the file 
as a MIDI file to be entered into the player's data base.  The song 
could then be tagged for play through a selected MIDI port.  Version 1.0 
required Windows 3.1 or Windows 95.
