Re: A question

If this is a DKVBrowser question it is probably best addressed over on the DKVBrowser forum.  However, you could use the pda to do what I would think would work as well, so I'll post my response here.

Jeff,  if I read this right you are trying to copy a partial CD and diskette to your hard drive on a Mark IV.   You probably have to copy the entire disk to your 'pianosoft' library and the CD will I believe automatically copy all files to the 'CD library'.   But I believe you could go back and delete all the tracks you do not want and the disklavier should work fine in playing only those tracks.  They would have to have the same album names in order to sync together.  I haven't tested this, but would be easy enough for you to test out.

Another thing you could do is to use the song options view on DKVBrowser or on your pda to check the 'skip' option for the tracks that you wish to 'skip', but this would mean keeping the songs from CD in the CD library (I believe) which would take up a considerable amount of disk space.

You can also keep the CD in the CD drive, and again would be easy enough to test that theory as well.  

Hope this helps,
Joan

If so where do I put them as they have the same names albeit different data types.    Can I convert the CD track to a wave and still have the Piano run them together ?  Can I copy the diskette on and leave the CD in the drive (second choice).
