What is MIDI and how does it sound?

One of the greatest misconceptions in Music history, finally explained! What is MIDI? How does it sound? What is MIDI used for? If you are unsure about this, then you might want to watch this free video presentation. You are also invited to post questions and comments below.

MIDI stands for "Musical Instrument Digital Interface" and describes a protocol for music devices to communicate with each other. This is done with so-called "Event Messages", which include data about Key Pitch, Key Velocity, Aftertouch, etc. When a musical instrument receives MIDI Events from a MIDI keyboard or sequencer, it interprets them and creates its sound accordingly. That sound might be anything and depends on the instrument and your settings. A MIDI sequence might play a piano sound or a phat dubstep wobble-bass on a synthesizer. So MIDI doesn't transmit any audible sound, but just control data. #TTNM ------

When i came across this video I was wondering what the heck. Now i get it. 💀

But what happens if I take a 3.5mm midi Jack and put it in an amp? It should make some blips and bloops, shouldn't it?

[johnnyraphaell]

Good ecplenation. But the recording has too much room in it. you should go nearer with the mic.

You comming in at 0:43 was not cool man. My speakers almost blew cause you didnt think to lower it after telling us to turn up our speaker according. Went from like -1, 000, 00 Db to 50, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 Db... WTF
