Yeah, the 3.08 software works a treat - its the 3.5(I think) update for
PianoSmart that caused me problems. I'll give it another go and try some
more exhaustive tests to find out exactly what doesn't work in addition
to the DOC disks (if anything). I might be able to massage the files into
something else using a sequencer package on the PC and get a new disk of
files that way. PianoSmart did appear to work at least, and my normal
PianoSoft / PS Plus / PS + Audio disks.
