Disklavier

Hi Everyone, Thank you for your prompt replys. I have taken a cd from the shelf and matched the purchased midi files to it using the midi2pianocd software. When i burnt the cd using the software it played beautifully through the units cd drive. the problem i have is when the files are put into i tunes the piano plays the audio perfect but the piano does not play along as it would when the cd is directly placed into the units cd drive.

I have a set of audio cables running from the laptops headphone jack to the analogue midi in jacks. I have not done anything else to the files. Maybe it is operator related! I might not have the correct settings set up in i tunes or the piano might not be set up right to accept the files.

I thank you all in advance.

Good afternoon, everyone.

Wayne, have you done anything to audio? Has it become compressed? Or are you sending the audio straight from the CD to the piano over analogue MIDI? I would try the latter and see if that works.

Hi Everybody, I have just recently purchased the dkc 850 upgrade. I am happy to report that this unit is everything that I had been expecting and more!! I have one problem with it. I cannot seem to get it to play
files through the analogue midi inputs. I am using a laptop with Vista. It will play the audio perfectly but the piano will not play along.
It is probably the operator!
I am wanting to purchase the squeezebox Duet system so that I can control all of my media from the handheld unit. I am hoping there is a way to play the disklavier files using this method. Any help would be appreciated.
In all other aspects I am very happy with the unit and highly reccomend it. The supplied manual does not explain the use for the analogue midi inputs properly.

Thanks in advance

Wayne
