Apple has done a unique implementation again with Siri, a voice command to a piano through MIDI signals receiver which is equipped into a series of digital piano, Yamaha Disklavier, enabled it to play songs as the user desires.

Apple company with its new feature, Siri, a voice command on iPhone 4S, has collaborated together with Yamaha, a leading musical instrument manufacturer, to implement Siri to a digital piano so it can play songs   in accordance with the playlist  just by saying "Play", the title song in will appear on the screen and the iPhone 4S will begin to play the piano. This remind me of creepy ghost story.


The secret of this technology is in the receive unit of the Apple Airport Express which is placed at the bottom of the piano as it will receive the file and sends instructions to the piano via WiFi. The songs in the playlist is also a special playlist that also stores digital MIDI versions of it-which sends MIDI signals to the piano. So, the songs will be played exactly the same as the existing version in the playlist. 

Unfortunately iPhone user can not give more order to piano to perform improvisation. With Siri user instruct the piano to play a song, repeat it back, or stop the game. Everything can be done simply by giving orders like a boss to boss. Amazing !
