Re: [disklavier] Converting .fil back to .mid

Good evening, everyone.

It's been awhile since I've visited and I did a search but was unable
to find an answer. Is there a utility that will convert *.fil files
back to *.mid files? I cannot play the .fil on my PC and would like
to convert some to midi's. I have the Giebler utilities but don't
recall if they can do that or if they will even run under Windows XP.

If you have a Mark IIXG or later Disklavier, you can use the song covert function in the Disklavier itself. Of course, if you want to convert Yamaha-published songs, the copy-protection will prevent you from doing this.
