Re: transferring my music on disks to the computer

2006-11-29 by yamahamale

I'm using a Yamaha IBM cable and I have the CBX driver installed and
highlighted in the software. Software seems to be reading MIDI files
fine. The software plays whenever I manually play the piano. When I
play the software, the piano plays. My situation is getting the
software to recognize the disks that I put into the disklavier. I
would think if I was recording in MIDI format, the software would see
it and play but it doesn't. I'll try looking into the software help
again. Is there anyway that I can tell what format I am recording to
on the disklavier?
