So is this Eltin John broadcast going to be able to be on my big screen TV and piano ? If so, do I need to hook up an HDTV to my laptop? Thanks again
Elton John! The Moment We've All Been Waiting For!
You probably have heard about Yamaha's RemoteLive technology available to Disklavier Mark IV and E3 customers. Yamaha has been beta-testing this technology in the US for the last two years. Many of you have served as beta-testers during this time.
I am thrilled to announce that Elton John will perform via RemoteLive™ on Friday, January 25, 2013 from Disney's California Adventure Park's Hyperion Theater.
Yamaha will be presenting a multi-artist blockbuster concert as part of their 125th Anniversary Celebration during the NAMM Show. Sir Elton John has agreed to allow us to stream his special 5-Song Set (that also includes a full orchestra) to our RemoteLive beta-testers in the US.
Since we'll be joining a concert already in progress, we estimate that Elton will take the stage at approximately 9:30 PM (PST). While I realize that this might not be a convenient time for you (unless you live on the west coast of the US), please understand that there is no agreement to enable us to offer this performance as a rebroadcast or as on-demand content, so this is ONE LIVE EVENT that you will not want to miss!
I think of this event like Woodstock, just without the rain…
If you are a Mark IV or E3 owner living in the US and you would like to try the RemoteLive experience, go to http://4wrd.it/remotelive. At the bottom right corner of the page, click on "Sign Up for RemoteLive" and register for it. This incredible event is free, so you really can't beat the price…
After signing up, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to download a set-up manual and the "dongle data" that is necessary for you to receive the broadcast.
After getting set up, go to http://4wrd.it/remotelive to check the test videos (to be sure everything is configured properly) and then enjoy the on-demand videos available.
Should you have any problems, please contact me as soon as possible. Because of the expected high number of requests for assistance, I ask you to contact me by email at bill.brandom03@.... Make sure to include a brief description of the problem and your phone number in the email so I can call you back.
Please plan to get prepared ASAP. It will be very difficult for me to provide assistance after January 20th, because I will be deeply involved in preparing for the NAMM Show and for this important event.
Despite the hour, I hope you'll invite your family and friends to "tune in" to this historical performance! As always, the broadcast will be streamed to http://4wrd.it/remotelive .
