Eduardo was just the right person that Michelle needed at the right time to explain MIDI 😅

@rickjust Год назад

Rick Just 1 second ago that was the worst explanation of MIDI. What does MIDI mean? musical instrument digital interface. MIDI allows you to play a Synth Keyboard or any instrument that's Synthed (like a guitar synth ) into the computer program like Cubase, or Protools and the music will be recorded and notated if desired.

@falxonPSN Год назад

@@rickjust Yeah, his explanation of MIDI was actually an explanation of a piano roll editor in a DAW. MIDI is the protocol for sending/receiving note and program change messages. That's it.

@FinnGamble Год назад

@@rickjust that’s the original meaning from the 70s. These days MIDI is often used as a generic term when discussing about tracks that are stored as note/controller data within the DAW. I feel like using the word ”language” rather than ”protocol” isn’t that bad considering the audience.

@TheSinlessAssassin Год назад

I used to think theory would limit me because it would be too confining, but honestly, it has opened up more avenues for me in terms of more INTENTIONAL complexity, rather than stumbling on it. There is some surprise to it that's lost, I admit, but it was a good sacrifice for having more confidence in knowing where a song could go based on knowing scales and modes etc.

MIDI was originally the name of a computer communication protocol to connect musical instruments with computers. It's used all the time and as with everything, the poor dudes and dudettes that created MIDI have had to deal with people using the term incorrectly. But that's life in the big city. I use it incorrectly too. Just wanted to highlight this. The acronym stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface.

@boss864 Год назад

MIDI is a device communication tool, not a musical creative development tool which automatically format a particular sound. MIDI talks to each piece of gear for control and sequence. The issue is not with MIDI, it's with some of the interactive software which makes music easily programable with a mouse click or a swipe of the iPad without knowledge of musical theory or previous musical experience. In the right hands, it's very creative... In the wrong hands very... not good.. lol
