o.t. request for a little listening help... :-)

o.t. request for a little listening help... :-)

2012-03-16 by wandamusic@aol.com

Hi, all,  

I hope it is OK to post this on my groups.
 
I just completed a 90 second orchestral composition for a facebook contest, 
 and I have only 1 week to get votes... I'd really appreciate anyone who 
could  take a moment to listen and vote if you like.
 
Hope you enjoy.

You can vote once a day from today until next week. A I teach music, it  
would mean a lot to win or even come close in this contest.
 
The contest is really popularity/votes BEFORE talent, and I just need  
enough votes to make it to the top 10.
 
;-)  

Blessings,

Wanda

What model disklavier do I have?

2012-03-16 by Jon Arnold

I'm a bit new to this disklavier thing on my Yamaha baby grand but am
enjoying it immensely.  The guy I bought it from included a few disks of
various types of music, and now I am looking to get some more, so questions:

 

1. Going to pianosoft.com it asks what model disklavier I have.  Looking at
the bottom of my unit, it says "DA1-II" by model which does not appear to be
one of the choices in the drop-down box at that site?

 

2. Is there a better (read "cheaper") place to get disks than pianosoft.com?

 

3. One of the disks that was included when I bought it (which of course now
I can't find) was pretty cool - it was jazz with string bass and drums, and
the previous owner showed me how to shut off the right channel so that the
piano was *muted* only leaving the string bass and drums, allowing one to
jam with it.  How do I find disks that have a similar string bass/drums or
other instruments along with the piano where I could shut off the piano
channel and play along with the rest of it?

 

Thanks

Jon
