That's why we have CD players and digital sound modules.

Did you really buy a DC6A for background music?

Once upon a time, when I was first starting in this business (25+  
years ago, before pianists were replaced by machines in lounges) -  
there was always the bar manager who'd say "if I can hear you, you're  
too loud." I hated these gigs.

If you don't want to hear a piano, then why have one? Play the CD! or  
turn on the sound module and listen to a digital.

One thing to understand - you can't simply download MIDI files and  
expect the disklavier to make it sound good -- sending midi  
velocities past 100 is typically a bad thing for a piano, but  
necessary for digital music. Maybe your source files need adjusting?  
Also - acoustics... if your instrument is in a loud room, nothing you  
can do. The best pianist will never be able to play soft enough.
