Disklavier

Greetings breppond,

floppies are dead or should be. yours may be a problem with
formatting.

forget the floppies and get Qmidi and or Rondo. They are both cheap
shareware. get a USB/MIDI interface, M-Audio or Roland seems to be the
best. you will never want to use a floppy again. you can also get a
WIDI wireless MIDI interface if you like wireless or if the Mark 4
will take audio encoded MIDI input you can get an airport express and
play your MIDI from Itunes by converting it with Mid2PianoCD. To use
Mid2PianoCD you would need a PC but may be able to use it from a
windows emulation or on an Intel Mac. You can also use Itunes in wired
mode but wireless is really cool.
