Hi, I'm totally new to this forum; my wife recently purchased a Yamaha piano with attached electronic devices to play the piano with MIDI disks (floppys and CD's). I would like to be able to produce disks with my G4 tower Mac that are compatible with and will work on the piano. The Mac will "write" to CD-R disks and has a floppy drive connected via USB. Are there application programs for the Macintosh that will properly format disks and transfer existing MIDI files onto them so they will be recognized and "played" by the Yamaha electronics? Any help would be much appreciated.

If the yamaha is a disklavier then it has a proprietary format for recording but will accept MIDI files and play them back on properly formatted (and perhaps single sided) floppy disks. You may need to consult the manual on the formats that the piano accepts. As for converting files to MIDI type 0 or editing MIDI files I would recommend Metro SE. Any program should be able to directly write to the floppy disk once it is properly formatted. |
