Will this program allow you to play the MusicSoft software for newer  
Disklavier models such as the DCD-1 supposedly would?  Being able to only  play 
diskettes severely limits the music available.  I desperately  would like 
access to more software.

Hi

One very good program is Yam player found here:

_http://www.carolrpthttp://www.carolhttp:/_ 
(http://www.carolrpt.com/softwaredwnld.htm) 

It  will allow you to create a play list of any length, so your DKV could 
be  playing 24/7.

All you need to do is have the files, Pianosoft or Midi,  on the HDD.
