MIDI

MIDI, short for Musical Instrument Digital Interface, is a protocol that enables electronic musical instruments, computers, and other hardware devices to communicate and synchronize with each other. MIDI allows for the transmission of musical data, such as note sequences, control messages, and tempo information, between compatible devices. It is widely used in music production, live performances, and audio recording, offering musicians and composers a flexible and standardized way to control and manipulate electronic music.

Think of MIDI as a digital conductor. Just as a conductor directs an orchestra, MIDI coordinates the actions of electronic instruments and devices, ensuring harmony and synchronization in musical performances and productions.
