Disklavier

Good morning, everyone.

In my experience, a properly regulated and calibrated Disklavier  
should not drop notes on playback from floppy disk, internal memory,  
or from external MIDI when the MIDI Delay feature is on.

Dropped notes are a potential problem if the instrument is not  
properly regulated or calibrated or if it receives MIDI data with the  
MIDI In delay turned off.

The non-Pro, pre-Mark IV Disklaviers have their own internal settings  
that insure that low-velocity notes play back at an  appropriate  
minimum velocity (about 20-25 on grands and about 35 on uprights).

Regards,
