Home Concert Xtreme will turn the pages automatically when playing a  
MIDI file in "Play File" mode. In this mode, the program does not  
expect any interaction from the soloist, who can play or not play what  
he sees on the screen.

Most of the time, though, people use Home Concert Xtreme in "Play &  
Follow" mode, in which the program tracks the progress of the soloist,  
outputs the accompaniment in an musically coordinated way, and turns  
the pages.

Play & Follow will not work with a playback-only Disklavier because  
the instrument does not generate MIDI output when you play the keys.
