In most cases, there is an option if you are inclined to connect 
a laptop to the MIDI-IN port of your DK.     No floppy disk 
handling ever again.

The most common method of making that connection is by the use 
of a UNO Midisport adapter cable.   It is USB on one end and 
MIDI-IN / MIDI-OUT on the other end.   In the middle is a little 
oval shaped box with lights letting you know of data traffic 
passing through.     These are routinely available on eBay in 
the $20 to $35 range.

vanBasco's Karaoke Player is what most people use to squirt the 
midi files through the wire to your DK.

This is a very simple, effective solution for a virtually 
endless supply of delightful music from an almost forgotten era 
of our musical heritage.

Enjoy!
