Hi all,
I’ve had fun setting this up to work from the Paramount 450 piano tabs. My Petrof piano has a PianoDisk Player system installed on it, and by using the midi in jack , I’m able to play the piano from the Hauptwerk/Paramount 450.... from any of the Piano tabs.
One thing that makes this work are the audio buffers found on the audio engine in Hauptwerk V. The piano is a few microseconds slower then the usual audio form HW. By using the audio buffers to put a slight delay on the outgoing audio I’m able to get the playback in perfect sync. It’s like playing a pipe organ which has a slight delay.
It makes my Paramount 450 Virtual Theatre Organ even more “lifelike.” Because many of the larger theatre pipes organs had player pianos which operated from the console.
See it in operation here:
