Hello,

Is there an USB interface available for my Yamaha CVP 103? Is it possible to do a modification on my CVP 103?

Floppy drive emulator
by: Anonymous

Yes! You can replace your floppy disc drive with a "USB floppy emulator". http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/102688171.html
You just remove the top of the keyboard by removing the 3 screws across the back panel, then slide the lid forward and lift. The emulator is designed to fit with the same ribbon cable that the floppy was connected to. By formatting a USB thumb drive, the clavinova sees it as a floppy drive. My husband and I did it the other night in about 15 minutes. Most of my time was spent trying to format the USB stick. Note that the formatting program is a .rar file, so you need to download a program to unzip the file in order to format the stick. Otherwise, terrific fix! Good luck to you!
