Disklavier

Thank you so much, Carol!

Before I start experimenting with veloset levels, do you (or anyone 
else) have an idea of a setting to start with?  This is for an 
mx100a, living room, carpet, drapes, dinner party is 30 feet away.

Some loss of lighter notes might be acceptable given the music is 
just background, anyway.

Thank you (whoever) in advance.
