Disklavier

Karl,

Thanks for this info, so sorry I didn't respond sooner, frankly I'm 
not even sure I received it, I need to check, but I went to the 
Group files and found your response.  Yes, I just want percussion.  
I've looked at the incredible list of voices available on my Mark 
III, but then I have to create it myself and I don't even know how 
to begin to do that.  I think if someone had such a 'rhythm' on Midi 
that I could take to my DSK to play, that would work best, I just 
don't know how and where to find such a thing.  Any suggestions?  
Know anyone with a Midi sequencer?  Okay, still hunting.... I 
actually bought an Olympus recorder and recorded my last lesson, 
which helps, but sound quality is awful to play along with.
Thanks again for taking the time to respond!
Kim
