Dear net,

I got a sampler floppy disk for the Yamaha disklavier. It is a 720
KB 3.5 inch disk, and contains about 12 songs in what seems to be
a proprietary format. I'm able to read the raw disk, so I basically
now have a 720 KB file... I'd like to convert these songs into
standard midi so that I can play them on my keyboard. Does there
exist a program to do this? If not, I guess I'm going to write one.

But before I dive in, try to unravel the format and write a converter
program, I would like to ask if anybody has already looked at this.
Any hints and tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Ben Stuyts (benst@olivetti.nl)
