Disklavier

The key movement is controlled by whatever MIDI information is contained on
Channels 1 and 2 of the data file.  The settings for this are covered in the
Advanced section of your owner's manual under "Import Files".

A quick way to see what is happening is to press the -> while the file is
playing.  The window you see tells it all.  Where there are blinking lights,
those are the channels that contain the MIDI information.  You will also see
something at the top like L=1 and perhaps R=##.  That is part of the
problem.  R=2 or Prg.  Use the function keys to set this under Piano Part.
The big circles represent L and R, so there is usually a big circle on
channel 1which is L.

For MIDI files you obtain that were not created for keyboard or no
information for channel 1 or 2, use the GNMIDI program option to "create
PianoDisc" or something like that.  It creates a MIDI 0 file that puts all
the data on Channel 1.

Hope this helps.
