Newbie qquestion on Mark III

2008-10-13 by driller010165

Hi,

I just bought a Yamah DGC1-B diasklavier that has the new MarkIII 
with the record function. I'm computer savy but know very little 
about music. This piano is for my kids that take private lessons.

Someone from Pianoworld forums sent me some midi files but I van not 
play them on the piano when I burn them on a CD. I was wondering:

1- Does this group have a FAQ or a "How To" regarding different midi 
formats and how to play them on a disklavier? I would appreciate a 
link to the page.

2- I went to this site 

http://www.piano-e-competition.com/midi_2008.asp

and downloaded the very first files in all three formats. Unzipped 
them and put them on floppies and CDs. The floppies play the three 
file formats ( XP, enhanced, and E-SEQ) with a little bit of a fuzzy 
sound if you stay close to the piano. The Cds do not play anything.

Any help for me to take full advantage of my Mark III is greatly 
appreciated.


Bob
