Greetings sjhart110110,

WIDI-X8 comes a a set of two bi-directional box type devices. You can use this pair with one on the computer and one on the piano but the best solution is to get a WIDI-XU dongle and use that on the notebook computer. You can buy a WIDI-X8 pair and share it with another piano owner and each buy one XU.
