Let's get the spelling right.  PianoDisc  not   PianoDisk.  I know I'm 
picky that way.

Remote installations can be done "hard wire" up to 100 feet away as I 
recall.  Wireless options are available but there's problems with walls, 
furniture, people passing by the "beam", distance, etc.  The control box 
and speakers are usually mounted under the piano for convenience 
purposes.  Each installation has it's own possibilities.  Knowledge of the 
options and their limits takes experience.

My Rockin' Piano

The Monkeys are available on the internet.  MIDI files abound all over the 
place.  Personally I have "The Stones" on my computer along with Donna 
Summers, Cher, Britney, Blondie, Madonna, Matchbox 20, Doors, 3 Doors, 
ZZTop, Toto, Ace of Base, Elton, Eagles, Gladys Knight, KC and the sunshine 
band, Sly, B52's, Santana, Ricky Martin, George Harrison, Flatt & Scruggs 
..............   you get the picture.  My computer drives the PianoDisc 
unit mounted in a Kawai CX and the sound card in the PDS unit is amplified 
by my home stereo.  At full tilt this puppy rocks.  It keeps the moss from 
accumulating on the shingles.  I could put country AND western on my piano 
BUTT  ........

I don't want to get BBQ sauce on the action and strings although the hot 
sauce would keep vermin away  ...........  or so I'm told.
I don't really care for the smell of a horse with my music.
the piano twangs enough as it is with out it.
I don't like getting tears in my beer.

Rock On Comrades.

PS  Have you ever heard blue grass piano??  Four part harmony in four areas 
of the keyboard.  Works really well to break in stiff actions as long as 
you keep the chaw on the floor where it belongs.
