Disklavier

This is not my area of expertise, but I would think you would connect the
the PC directly to the To Host port on the control box of the Disklavier
using the Yamaha CBX cable.  You would also install the CBX driver from the
Yamaha website on your PC.  Connect the TG300 to the DKV control box using
the MIDI ports.  Choose CBX driver on your PC for the Yamplayer.

BTW, Midi format 0 files work on all players, but not all players can accept
MIDI format 1 files.  If you are putting MIDI files on a floppy disk, make
sure you only have the same format on the disk.
