Re: [disklavier] MX100B calibration

2008-01-14 by athomik


The first disklaviers didn't have a self calibrating function. The hammer and key sensor rails have to be adjusted with the help screws located in 4 positions under the keys and on the action.

The MX100B will transmit MIDI volume but does not receive it.
