Re: e-Competition Files

2007-06-08 by jheitzeb1

The competition files should be fine to play on your disklavier.  They were made on 
disklavier.  I have not found any midis yet that would seem to damage the piano.  When I 
used to play some on a piano equipped with a pianodisc system that we had before the 
disklavier, there were some of the piano roll midis that didn't seem to play properly on the 
pianodisc system, but played ok on the new disklavier that we got. 

Hope this helps.
