If you use a midi editor you will find that the channels are set for something other than the piano. I have a five year old MX100 and I have to change everything to channel one and two in order to get it to play all the notes. I have to be careful not to include drums or snares or percussion. Sounds wild with them. Buffy -----Original Message----- From: Warren R. Jason [mailto:wjason@...] Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 1999 6:15 AM To: disklavier@... Cc: Todd Muncy Subject: [disklavier] Re: New Addition to Vault ---this email has 2 nonmidi attachments as well I have a question for my fellow members: Why is it that many of the MIDI files I download from the Internet, when played on my piano, don't actually play the piano part on the keyboard and pedals? Instead, the piano part plays via the synthesizer as would the rhythm parts or other instruments. Often, there will be several songs that play properly, yet others that don't, from the very same download set. The "Billy Joel" zip file in the vault is an example. Most of the songs play correctly, but a few synthesize the piano part instead of playing the keyboard. Any notion of what's happening?

Cc: Todd Muncy Subject: [disklavier] New Addition to Vault ---this email has 2 nonmidi attachments as well Hello to all; hope you are all having a great holiday. I just uploaded a file to the vault entitled "Disney Edit". This contains 26 selections that were derived from a variety of internet sites (but mainly from www.dismusic.com ). The files were heavily edited in many cases--I used cakewalk and veloset for the most part. I must have started with close to triple the final amount of songs but kept only those that I felt sounded the best. The first 24 files are mostly piano but the last two files have sparse piano. I included these files---Raiders of the Lost Ark (included in this collection because Disney's MGM Studio has a Raiders audience participation show) and Under the Sea (from Lion King) because they sounded incredible on my DC2S. If you feel they don't go along with the rest of the disk, simply delete these two and you'll have a disk where all selections are entirely or mostly piano. I have attached the song list as a word pad document to this email. If you print it out exactly as is, it makes an excellent label for the disk. As you can see in the enclosed picture (sorry it is out of focus, but I don't have close-up capabilities on my old digital camera), it fits perfectly onto a standard floppy disk. Just in case people have problems with the attachments, I will also enclose the song list at the end of the body of this letter below. Although it took a lot of work making, I greatly enjoyed putting together this file. As the father of an 18 month son and with another child on the way, I hope my family enjoys this disk for years to come. I hope all of you also get enjoyment from these songs. I'd also like to thank Todd Muncy again for the tremendous effort he has put into forming this group. While I've only had my disklavier for three months, I've been able to start on a pretty diverse collection, thanks in part to this group. Lastly I'd like to wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season.
