Midi message code can be used as a means of communication between software and hardware devices. In the theater tech world, we can use "show control software" to send midi messages to lighting consoles, digital mixers, projection software and more. By doing this you can synchronize all parts of your production and provide a seamless experience for the audience.
In this Midi Part 2 video I discuss the connection options for transferring midi messages from one device to another including:
1. Sending Midi using standard 5 pin Midi cables
2. Sending Midi over ethernet (Cat5 or Wifi)
3. Virtual Midi cables between two software programs on one computer
