Re: [disklavier] Possible to upgrade a Mark III Pro to a Mark IV Pro?

2006-12-05 by James Fry

Hi,

It is a shame that Yamaha don't offer a MarkIV style control unit and 
tablet/pda for existing users, a la DSR1. That would be a big win imo. I 
would imagine that most people want to upgrade the functionality, not 
the actual piano (ie I love my piano and its tone, why would I ever 
change it?). It would be a way of getting a "Mark IV" upright then too I 
guess - not everyone has room for a grand :)


Regards

James
