Hello folks,

I have reviewed my statement below with our engineers and they have
clarified that the standard Mark IV does not playback XP data like the
PROs do. Sorry about that. In terms of playing regular MIDI data, the
Mark IV plays very close to the same performance level of the Mark III
PRO.

Does the Mark IV play back XP Standard files like the pro?  How does 
the Mark IV (non Pro), store the data to make it "virtually the same 
as a Mark III pro"?
