I've recently downloaded several MIDI files. When I tryed playing
them, my Disklavier rejected the disc as "not formatted". When I
format the disc on the Disklavier, my PC won't recocognize the
Diskalvier format and wants to re-format in order to copy the MIDI
files.
I'm working with an MX-80 series Disklavier and my operating system
is Windows XP Professional.
What am I doing wrong?
Bill, are you using double density (DD) disks? If not, your Disklavier is formatting high density (HD) disks as DD because it does not know that there is a difference. Your PC knows that the disk is HD but recognizes the fact that the format is wrong.
