Xpanded update and 4 way grand piano

Post by aellison62 »

I am not at my M3 now but as I recall, you need to load the grand piano file in addition (after) to powering on the unit once expanded.

I think you may also need the 256mb expansion in order to load.

Yes, as Keego mentions, you also need the 256 MB expansion in order to fit the 4 way grand.

Thank you guys for your tips. I will go to the shop and talk to the owner about this.
Btw.
Does anyone of you has an idea where I could possibly get an Mal- Hinge to tilt up the module. The M3 they sell comes without a hinge, they say it was broken.

Cheers.... & I appreciate your support.
