I have a question: Are you playing these files from your computer?
If so, be sure that the Disklavier is set to receive with the 500ms delay turned on. If the delay is off, the Disklavier might not play all of the notes when there are rapid repeated notes, particularly repeated notes with low velocity. What happens is that the message to turn each note off gets there before the Disklavier has had a chance to completely play the notes.

I am working with a MarkIIIXG upright. We downloaded some Ampico expression rolls. Even with the volume control at max, some notes will not strike on play back. I looked at the file with Cakewalk and noticed that the missing notes had velocities around 30. I assume that when the XG volume is on maximum, the piano will try to play the velocities in the file with no lowering.My question is: What is the lowest velocity number this piano must have to reliably play such fast moving music? Spencer Chase's editor will let you raise velocities in certain ranges without bothering other velocities. The piano has just run the self test and calibration program and passed. I just want to know how much to raise those soft notes.Many thanks for all comments.Bob Gonzalez
