A little bit of a sad fact but its an interesting one. In a certain area of New Orleans, theres a hospital by the name of Oschner. When my grandmother was in there after she went into a coma (she died shortly after, it was 2006 so ive had some time to cope) I would always go to the main area of the hospital where all the vending machines and gift shops were on the main floor. They had this piano always playing some beautiful tune and i can never stop thinking about it. I want this piano just for the memory of my grandmother. Even in the harshest times, it brought the sweetest memories of her. Baking and gardening all the time, I miss her dearly.

My grandparents had a player piano years ago, and I always wanted my own, so good lord, does this thing stir my gear lust.

I had no idea such a device existed! Thank you for sharing this. It's amazing the level of detail they went into, as you said. Can the strings be "plucked"? I know they don't make sound; I'm just curious. I've been playing keyboards/piano for a long time. Not well, but I try. I work for a TV/Radio network, and we're lucky enough to have a Yamaha Disklavier -- I think it''s a 7 foot model. It is an incredible machine. You can turn off the piano mechanism such that the keys trigger MIDI notes. I can finally practice on a grand piano with no one hearing me! Plus, it comes with a General MIDI sound module, so it'll play multi-timberal MIDI files and have all of the channels for the proper instruments (drums, bass, keys) play just fine. And it's worth $28K USD, so it's out of my price range! Anyway, hello from Maine, USA and my day is always made better by a Techmoan video. Especially if it has puppets. But no pressure.

I remember a mall based chain of music stores had full size versions of pianos like that from Yamaha (aka real player pianos with proper midi connectivity) back in the 90's. Dunno if any are still made like that but that music store chain is long gone (nearly, down to a single store among several big box stores)

(3:37) "...

I can think of several copyright songs I'd love to hear play... (5:28) yes, like "Piano Man". Are you able to play that song because it's in the United States National Recording Registry?

In case you still read this: if you convert midi files with multiple tracks than it also has a drum track with it on midi channel 10, if you play that back on a piano the drum track will be converted into notes and becomes rubbish, if you however use a midi editor to mute or delete this drum track then it will sounds normal again.
