Mark IV DC6M4T, sensors and DSP solenoids

Mark IV DC6M4T, sensors and DSP solenoids

2019-02-08 by west.dylan.thordson@...

Hello - I own a DC6M4T, which I’ve been working with in my recording studio for about two years. Primarily, I use DAW software to capture MIDI, so I’m rarely utilizing the Disklavier’s own recorder. I recently came across a local Mark IV Pro. It’s the DC6M4PRO, and I’ve been intrigued. 

Aside from the internal XP MIDI capture/playback on the Pro model, are the Pro’s solenoids and the servo mechanism the same as on my Mark IV?.. how about the sensors?

If I’m mostly working with standard MIDI, will the Pro still deliver a more accurate performance? Mostly focused on accuracy of fast runs, trills, and ultra soft performances. 

Thanks,
West

Technically I’m not sure, but wondering what the asking price is for it, as that is exactly my piano...my prized possession!

Disklavier Mark4 and Mark4Pro has same hammer and Key sensor unit.
The key solenoid and drive unit of Mark4 and Pro is different.
Mark4 Pro playback quality is higher than Mark4.

Adjusting the piano is the most important item if you want to play an hyper amazing trill like this.(゜o゜)


1:The acoustic piano action regulation.
2:Disklavier piano action and pedal adjustment.
3:Disklavier Key and Pedal measurement.
