Hi Kent

It's a long story. A friend of mine bought a Roland sound canvas and 
wanted to be able to play my Disk Orchestra Disks on his computer 
(then an Atari). So he wrote a program. Basicly you put on a DOC disk 
or PianoSoft disk, the program would read the disk title, look up the 
songs on the disk from a table and present them as a menu for you to 
select one or as many as you wanted to play in any order.
It would also convert DOC to Midi.
DOC disk are in the ESEQ format and have to be revoiced to be 
compatable with midi.
Even Eseq2midi can not convert DOC disks as the tempo, plus other 
things are in a different place within the files.
I am not sure, but I don't even think Eseq2midi will convert 
PianosoftPlus disks that well due to the remaping of the voices.  

He also wrote an Atari version of DKVCOPY which worked in exactly the 
same way.

I have asked him to do one for the PC but he is too busy with other 
things at the present.
