Hi all I tried to burn a CD with Mark Fontana's midtopianoCD software, and did not succeed in having it play on my DU1A Yamaha upright, equipped with the latest system update. I used the pianodisk format, and burned it on a sound CD, closing it carefully. But it will just play some notes, let some others stuck, with no relationship whatsoever with the original midi files. As I guess the software (http://dp70.dyndns.org/mid2pianocd/ -a shareware) might not be in cause, I have three hypotheses : 1°) I am dumb and miss some important point... (Although I seem to follow the instructions. I use Nero 5.5 for burning, and Sound Forge to take care of the .wav files when I try to add something onto the CD's blank left track.) Could also be a matter of Type 1 versus Type 0 format but the pianodisk format is said to read and play both. 2° ) the yamaha CD drive doesn't read homemade CD's - a way to protect them from "illegal" copy; 3°) the Mark III system does not read pianodisk CDs if not configured to do so. But then I could not find a hint about this in the yamaha doc... Has anyone encoutered the same problem ? Has anyone succesfully played an original Pianodisk CD on a MarkIII system ? Has anyone tried to copy a Pianosoft CD or Pianodisk CD and have them play ? Regards Jean Debefve
