What is MIDI?
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is the international standard for digital communication of elec-

tronic musical instruments and personal computers—can easily exchange digital data with other MIDI
equipment without resorting to complicated conversions or connections.

MIDI channels
Many different kinds of performance data are

1 to 16). In order for the exchange of data to take
place, the channels on the transmission side
must match the channels on the receiving side.
This characteristic also makes it possible to link
multiple sound generators and to control each by
matching specific channels.
