Sometimes a Disklavier for some reason goes through a little identity crisis and thinks that it’s an upright when it’s a grand or a grand when it’s an upright. The biggest telltale sign of this is when the piano plays a bunch of weird notes which don’t correspond at all. There are times when the Piano also starts speaking a different language. In this video, you’ll see how to fix both of these ...

Do you know how to calibrate the sustain pedal through the PianoDisc CD using the setup bitton?
Hello Mr. Hayes, I am Daniel Alamilla. I am currently working on a Yamaha dealer in California and would really appreciate if I can have your email or another way to get a hold of you. Thank you for all the amazing information provided in your videos.
@@danielalamilla8080 hello Daniel. My email is hayesiq@gmail.com Thanks! Oh, and just call me, Richie 👍😊
Is there any way to send MIDI from Pianostream to the Yamaha UD-WL01 Wireless LAN adapter that comes included with the Yamaha DGB1K ENST? The Enspire Controller App must be sending MIDI somehow...
@@rowanjoubert7925 hello. No. You have to use a midi device like the Yamaha md-bt01 or the widi master. The UD-WL01 just gives you a quick wireless WiFi (access point) connection to the piano.
Congratulations to the ever growing Hayes Family. What a great celebration!
Congratulations Richie that’s awesome! ❤
My Best Wishes For The Couple 🎉❤🎂🎈🎁🎊
Congratulations Richie. God bless you and your beautiful daughter and your entire family. 🙏🏼✝️
Looks like you set that piano to ghost mode.
I have a Yamaha G1 wagon grand (DOM-30 and DRC-24 all of which work perfectly). The BTO1 will work on it? Anything else that needs to be done? Also, will that only play solo and if not is there a way to get orchestration/vocals to work on the wagon grand as well?
@@ToddStonewall hello Todd. All you’ll need is a md-bt01 or Widi master midi device which I usually prefer since it connects automatically. Once you have that device you’ll use the digital side of pianostream. Aa far as vocals are concerned you’d need another Yamaha DCD1 or a dkc850 to make that happen. Email if you have any more questions. Thanks 😊 hayesiq@gmail.com
Problem is: Yamaha no longer supports any of those models. If they fail, you're on your own.
1.All pins are different in their head position, tuning heads will not fit all equally. 2. Not all strings are the same amount out if tune . 3. With huge torque if pins your hand will go numb with such short lever handle and weight of the hammer. Will not work out.
Hi Richie-discovered your channel! Great information here. I own a Yamaha C7 MKIII Disklavier with a DRC500 RW XG. I am desperately trying to figure out how to send midi files (standard midi files from ProTools) to the Disklavier. Everything I’ve tried has not worked. Would you be able to offer some help or guidance? Are you available for consultation? Thank you!
Hello! I imagine you could simply plug in a Widi master and then connect to it with ProTools if the software has that capability which I assume it does. Make sure that you slide the little switch on the back of the Mark lll Control unit over to mid. Feel free to shoot me an email! Hayesiq@gmail.com Thanks 😊
Hi! I need help please. How you connect the speakers to the yamaha disklavier enspire? Can you connect a bluetooth speaker to it?
Can I use this on a pianodisc cdplayer?
Yes! Please send me an email and I will give you my cell phone and I can explain all of this. It’s been a long day! But once again, yes! Hayesiq@gmail.com
I have a very old disklavier that plays from 3.5" floppy disk. It is in perfect working order. Will the Widi work on this model?
Yes! Incredibly well actually!!!
Wow, how cool. It sounds like the piano is slightly ahead of the audio.
Using the widi master, I was able to get several pianos playing the same song and the same time with a Widi Master and Widi Jacks at the same time.
Cool I’ve always wanted to try that!!
I need one
Hello. If you would send me an email Hayesiq@gmail.com Thanks..
Did you ever make the 2nd video detailing the install? I can't find it if you did. thx
Hello yes. I made a playlist which includes every single detail of the upgrade. If you would like me to send you that playlist shoot me an email and I will. The reason that it’s not here is that it’s like 12 videos that took up too much space and made things a little monotonous, but they are super short and simple to follow!
you couldnt do this with the pano not playing?!?!?!
Oh sorry did that bother you!!??!
Saved me a lot of time on a 2008 endeavor for anyone reading the air intake has a bracket under it it’s a little tricky but as long as you undo the hoses and the two bolts on the bracket you don’t need to worry about the long bolts he had to take out and loosen Also if you have a misfire don’t just replace the spark plug take the ignition coil of the spark plug you are replacing and move it to one of the front ones you can get to easily that is if it’s in the back, but that way if it misfires again, you know, it’s the ignition coil that you moved
Also, I only say that last part because I had to learn that the hard way
Wow … so there certainly can be hope for a Mark 3 ?
Does it work with Yamaha disklavier dkc500?
Yes it does! It works with all pianos that have midi in/out ports. Send me an email if you have any more questions. Thanks! Hayesiq@gmail.com
Hello! Yes it does! It works with all pianos that have Midi in/out ports. you’ll use the digital side of the app to access the midi player. Then you will connect to a wireless midi device like the Yamaha md-bt01 or the Widi master. Both of which you can purchase on Amazon for about 50 bucks.
Does it work with disklavier unit dgp1xg floppy console? It has midi in out
What are the costs on something like this? For an old PDS 128?
Hello. Please send me an email. Hayesiq@gmail.com Thanks 😊
that is an extraordinary system. I am so jealous--I can't imagine how you are able to make all of that work
Hey Richie. I’m a musician and electronic producer in Memphis TN. I am trying to figure out if I can use the PianoDisc system MIDI input to compose in real-time from the output of my laptop or MIDI controller/sequencer. Is that possible? I have access to a Grand with a PDS-128 system installed on it
Nah this will never work this is to good to be true!
That was the device I was just about to acquire … to use with my old ‘Wagon Grand ‘ Disklavier …. If you happen to be able to know if one available… please do let me know 🙏🏽
Richie - thanks for your awesome work. I have one of these pianos. I bought the Yamaha DKC850 to work with this. The power supply blew up and took a while to get a new one back. It is working now. However, the music sounds broken. Do you have any tips or perhaps a video on how to connect the DKC to MX100 II? There is no connector for this, so perhaps you can shed some light on it for me please! Appreciate your inputs
Hello, sorry about the delay in getting back to you I just saw this message! So yes you can connect to your MX 100 using midi cables/ and you can also use Pianostream anyway, maybe we can chat next week my email hayesiq@gmail.com
Did you just flip the DIP switches to go into DKC850 mode, or is there something else you did? Where did you get that cable? Did you have it made? Sounds great…
Need to upgrade an MK3, but the dkc850 is no longer available. What do I do? Will the 900 work and if so, can you help me?
Hi, is it possible with this method is it possible also to play vocal from speakers in the same time of the piano like it happen in the latest version of enspire ?
@@hayesiq at the end yeasterday i bought an U1 with enspire...i'll get in my home in two weeks
that is beautiful
Thank you!! 🙏😊
Prayin you see this comment!! Did you convert to the 115 V to run off a normal 15-amp circuit? I'm new to welding and got this exact machine from my boss. Also, what rod type and size do you use for 115? Is the manual correct that you cannot run more than 70 amps off 115 V so 1/16 or 5/64?? Thanks Richie!
Cool. Where can I get one of those circuit boards?
Hello juar send me an email at hayesiq@gmail.com and let me know what you have! Thanks
Just to be clear though this works great with Pds128, pds128+ and CD only. I don’t recommend that you use it with an IQ system and I haven’t tested it on a PDS 228.
Richie, I have the DKC5R controller, which has the floppy drive, installed on an Yamaha MX85 upright piano. It has failed and I have tried to install MIDI cables, with an iPad using CUBASIS LE3. I connot seem to get it to work. I am looking for either suggestions for options, or where I could purchase a replacement box. By the way your video is very informative, thank you
How can I order one power adapter?
Hello! You already contacted me right? If not just shoot me an email Hayes iq@gmail.com. Thanks. 😊
Excellent video and much appreciated here in Maine. Mark IIXG DKC-850 with Line Mixer, and Speaker...DO I need anything else? You mention a OLD Controller? and Where are the MIDI/Songs (LIST) located??? OH on the sample CD...:) Do you know a Disklavier TURNER in Maine, Vermont, or New Hampshire. Thank you
Hey Richie would like to talk to you about upgrading my dkc 509r xg on my C7. How do I get ahold of you
Hello! Just shoot me an email. Hayesiq@gmail.com I will tell you, however… There really isn’t an upgrade available right now except for the Dkc850, which is kind of hard to get, but there are some other streaming options that we could talk about! Thanks 😊
hi there, does 2005 and 2008 has the same features?,
Richie Richie Richie! My friend's parents have owned a PDS228 for almost 2 decades. They'd never used the player piano function. They weren't interested in spending a fortune gathering outdated player piano floppy disks and WHO COULD BLAME THEM? I made it my mission to give that piano a chance to shine in the modern era. I've learned so many things from your videos and would like to share my solution process. I bought some 1.44 mb disks online. I hooked up the MD-BT01 to the MIDI in but needed to supply power (as you've explained). I know you make custom power cables, but I wanted to try my hand at it. Here is what worked for me: MD-BT01 MIDI out -> female to female midi adapter -> MIDI to USB power cable -> USB wall charger. It ran me about 20 dollars. I formatted the floppy disk in the PDS228, switched to passthrough, convinced them to subscribe to PianoStream and BOOM! It was a happy happy New Years Eve for everyone! PianoStream is a beautifully designed app by the way. You really thought of everything. Now I have two questions for you: 1. Is there a way you could allow PianoStream to reorient with rotated devices? I'm not sure what goes into that, but the device that streams to my friend's PDS228 is a sideways wall-mounted iPad. 2. The player piano volume is stuck on my friend's piano. It believe it's a Yamaha DU1A upright. As mentioned before, it uses a PDS228. It's unpleasantly loud for casual use. They claim it had that issue when they bought it, but I would like to fix it if I can. Do you have any leads that come to mind? Thank you for putting so much effort into all that you do. I mention your brilliance every time I talk about player pianos. You really have created something amazing and have brought a lot of joy to others. Have a great day and I look forward to hearing from you!
Will this work with the original Yamaha wagon disklaviers? TIA
Yes. You’ll just need to have a floppy disk in the floppy drive and push midi button on control unit.
Hey Richie, I hope you don't mind me contacting you. I'm trying to work on an old PianoDisc PDS128S+ and I've run into a wall troubleshooting. The Problem - The keys don't move when called for by the PDS128S+ Things I've done: I've checked the power supply, all the fuses are ok. There is 40V DC coming out of the one plug going to the solenoid control board The test button in the back does nothing The PDS128S+ turns on and plays floppy disks through the speaker (background) I've checked to make sure Piano is in the On position I can pres 1 and 4 to go to setup mode but there is no response from any of the keys when I cycle through them. I'm not sure what I should be checking next. Do you have a troubleshooting guide or perhaps any suggestions or recommendations on what to try next? Thank you for your videos. Been watching them to help with the issue.
Hello! Email me anytime! Hayesiq@gmail.com
Thank you so much. I spent hours going over the regulation for only a slight improvement. Until I found this video. Can I lubricate the solenoids? What to use? Thanks for all your help.
Hello you can use a little bit of protek although it’s not recommended but sometimes we don’t have a choice! So just be careful when you use it. Protek 1406 Cleaner, Lube and Protectant, 4 oz Bottle a.co/d/9TiyQDz
Quite often it will free up the solenoid. Use a little hypo oiler or plastic applicator…
