PianoDisc owners might like to know of a useful addition to the latest
version of Guenter Nagler's GNMIDI shareware.

The new version, 2.40, has a command in the 'Modify' menu called
'Quantize Pedal Controllers to on/off'.  This enables files recorded
on instruments with graduated pedalling, such as Disklaviers, to be
replayed on PianoDiscs.  GNMIDI already permits bulk modification of
MIDI files for use with PianoDiscs by converting them to type 0 and
inserting the necessary "Grand Piano" command.

Unfortunately, the new command may only be applied one file at
a time and does not appear in the menu until a file has been opened.
None-the-less, the operation only needs to be carried out once and
the results are very satisfactory.

GNMIDI is available from  http://www.gnmidi.com/
