Use Digital Piano as a Player Piano?
Use Digital Piano as a Player Piano?
(OP)
I've been wanting to do this since purchasing the Kawai ES4 about 5-6 years ago.
I've a Kawai ES4 digital player piano and several piano "pieces" as sheet music. My objective is to take the sheet music, scan it, and use software to "convert" the sheet music into a "playable" format, which can be sent to the piano via usb cable. The piano would then play the sheet music, similar to a player piano, but in digital format. By "playable" format, I would like to basically use the piano as a digital player piano.
I've not a clue what hardware or software (?) will accomplish this task. Any recommendations or suggestions are appreciated.

Oh, I just read your last line. There is no software that does that specific thing. You could get a conventional sheet music creation software and manually transcribe the music into electronic form, which can then be output as MIDI.

Never tried it myself, though.

I've a macbook pro (10.6.8), so the Smartscore X2 software appears to be able to meet the needs. wait and see . . .
