Re: Please Help!!!!!!!!!!! on MX80 Disklavier

2006-02-06 by bokyoungkim

Sorry I wasn't clear on the question.  I have problem with the double-
density FD driver (not floppy disk itself).  Once I get the driver 
working I can format the floppy to 720K format.  So the question 
still remains Can I use the any DD floppy driver on Dislavier 
controller or does it have to be the one from yamaha?

Thank you very much in advance.
