Re: Audio files into Disklavier hard drive

2008-02-13 by Mario Ajero

Thanks for answers, Kevin.

Another feature that I would like to see is the capability of recording through the 
Microphone or Line-In in order to create a PianoSoft file that has you playing the piano on 
the Disklavier in sync with singing into the microphone.

I'm pretty sure that the latest Clavinova CVP models have this capability, so it would be 
nice to see them on the Disklavier as well.

DKVBrowser then allows me to move them to the "User" category where I want them.  Can't 
do that from the PDA or the tablet because it seems to make the assumption that there is 
no such thing as Audio+Midi that is anything but "Pianosoft Plus Audio", and therefore it 
has to live in the "Pianosoft" category.  It works fine from the "user" category, but there's 
no guarantee that a future "upgrade" won't break that.
