Brian,
Thanks for all your help. Actually my 486 laptop didn't work probably because it doesn't have a sound card. It register on my disklavier as "Midi input/output�Data error". I tried to use a newer laptop with Pentium 4 and it works but with minor problem I have stated. What do you mean by setting up a midi file that is only a reset? How do I configure my midi editor to send out a reset? Sorry but I am not to familiar with this subject. Hope you can help. Thanks again.
Allan
