[disklavier] NO MORE MEOWING

[disklavier] NO MORE MEOWING

2000-03-29 by Clarita Verbeek

Dear Dinycat,

Let us have some common sense. How in the world 
would the Yamaha company be able to sell so many 
expensive disklaviers if they are so difficult to 
operate? Even with my limited knowledge of the
English language I have no trouble to read and
understand the manuels. If there are still problems
then George Litterst, also known as Piano Bench, 
is always willing to help. He is doing far more
than his duty as a staffmember of Yamaha.
For he is by nature a very helpful person. He has a
tremendous knowhow and an even more than
tremendous patience. The service we get from
Yamaha is topmost. Yamaha cares about its customers.

Midifiles are very easy to take from the internet
and very easy to modify according to one's taste
and liking. If one has trouble one can always
find somebody who can help for free or for a
few bucks. This is no problem. If you take
Tjako van Schie's satanic verses from Daniel
Klebanov's website you do not need to change
or alter anything. In a few seconds, may be a 
few minutes but no longer, your disklavier will
play music, not angelic music, but, like I said, 
Satanic, but still very beautiful music.
Satanic verses is a masterwork. Van Schie
outdid himself. Your piano will play as if
Tjako was live in your living room. And
this is all for free. You do not pay one
penny for it, but please, do not forget to
send Tjako a thank you letter and also Daniel
for maintaining such a wonderful website.

I think Dinycat, that very soon you will
stop with meowing and that you will
be very thankful that you bought such
a beautiful instrument from Yamaha.
