1 MIDI Musical Instrument Digital Interface 030-MIDI: 1
2 What s MIDI A hardware and software specification Allows musical instruments and devices to exchange information: musical notes, program changes, expression controls Examples of MIDI-supporting devices: synthesizers, samplers, keyboard controllers, lighting controllers, sequencers,... Supporting the Arts through Technology 030-MIDI: 2
3 MIDI: the origin First idea: The Complete MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification is jointly prepared by the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA) and the Japan MIDI Standards Committee (JMSC) Now JMSC becomes Association of Musical Electronics Industry (AMEI) 030-MIDI: 3
4 MIDI: the specification The specification, last revised 1996, has seven sections MIDI and Music Synthesis Tutorial MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification MIDI Time Code (MTC) Standard MIDI Files (SMF) General MIDI (GM) MIDI Show Control (MSC) MIDI Machine Control (MMC) 030-MIDI: 4
5 MIDI: recent developments 1998: DLS: Downloadable Sounds Level 1 specification : DLS Level 1.1 specification : GM2: General MIDI Level 2 specification : DLS: Downloadable Sounds Level 2.1 amendment text : RMID (SMF w/dls) specification : MIDI Over IEEE-1394 specification : Amendment 1 to DLS-2.0 specification : GM-Lite: GM Lite Specification and Guidelines for Mobile Applications : extensible Music Format (XMF) specification 030-MIDI: 5
6 MIDI: more recent developments , : SP-MIDI: Scalable Polyphony MIDI specification : ZLIB Audio Compression Unpacker ID for XMF : XMF: extensible Music File (XMF) Specification v : GM-2: General MIDI 2 Specification v 1.1 (updated) : DLS Level 1.1b : DLS Level 2.1 amended : DLS Level 2.1 corrected : SP-MIDI amended 030-MIDI: 6
7 Event-based vs. sample based MIDI data focus on events rather than samples Musical events, rather than the sound waveform itself, are exchanged between MIDI devices using MIDI messages Examples: Pressing a piano key Releasing a piano key Changing instrument sound Changing volume Crescendo and diminuendo Note On Note Off Program Change Volume controller Expression controller 030-MIDI: 7
8 Events, events Only a few bytes are needed to represent an event Storage-friendly, network-friendly Easy to edit, e.g., can change the speed or pitch of notes easily Hardware or software needed to generate sound Not easy to specify sound parameters precisely 030-MIDI: 8
9 MIDI: the physical specification Transmission parameters: asynchronous serial, 31.25k baud ±1%; one start bit, 8 data bits, one stop bit Circuit: Point-to-point opto-isolated 5mA current loop, current on = logic 0, fan out = 1, rise/fall time < 2µs Connector: DIN 5 pin (180 ) female panel mount receptacle, labeled MIDI IN and MIDI OUT. MIDI THRU, which copies MIDI IN data, is optional Cable: shielded twisted pair (STP), cannot be longer than 50 feet (15 m) 030-MIDI: 9
10 MIDI Cable 030-MIDI: 10
11 Words to know Channel mode message Channel pressure Channel voice message Control change Controller Data bytes Digital piano Electronic organ Electronic piano General MIDI Keyboard controller Local control MIDI keyboard MIDI mode Monophonic Multitimbral Note number Note off Note on Octave number Omni mode Patch Patch map Pitch bending Pitch wheel Poly mode Polyphonic Polyphonic key pressure Program Program change Running status Sampler Sequencer Sound generator Sound module Sound set Soundbank Status byte Synthesizer Sysex System common message System exclusive message System real time message Velocity Voice 030-MIDI: 11
12 Some jargons Both controllers and sequencers generate MIDI data A controller is a device played as an instrument and translates the performance into a MIDI data stream in real time. e.g., musical instrument keyboard (keyboard controller or simply MIDI keyboard ) A sequencer is a device which allows MIDI data sequences to be captured, stored, edited, combined, and replayed 030-MIDI: 12
13 Some more jargons A sound module, or sound generator, respond to MIDI messages received at its MIDI IN port by playing sounds Many keyboard instruments, often called digital pianos, include both a keyboard controller and a MIDI sound module within the same unit The local control function of such instruments enables or disables the internal link between the keyboard controller and the sound module 030-MIDI: 13
14 Connecting MIDI instruments: an example MIDI OUT MIDI IN Keyboard controller Sound module 030-MIDI: 14
15 Digital Pianos and local control Sound module Keyboard controller MIDI IN Local control MIDI OUT Digital piano 030-MIDI: 15
16 Connecting MIDI instruments MIDI data-producing devices (e.g., controllers and sequencers) are connected to MIDI data-receiving devices (e.g., sound modules what besides that?) Computers can make use of MIDI interfaces to connect to MIDI instruments Devices can be daisy-chained together using the MIDI THRU port Daisy-chaining using MIDI THRU may introduce delay 030-MIDI: 16
17 Connecting MIDI instruments: another example MIDI OUT MIDI IN MIDI THRU Sound module 1 Keyboard controller MIDI IN MIDI IN MIDI IN MIDI THRU MIDI THRU Sound module 2 Sound module 3 Drum machine 030-MIDI: 17
18 Use of MIDI interfaces MIDI OUT MIDI IN Digital piano IN OUT IN OUT IN OUT MIDI IN Sound module 1 Computer 4 IN OUT MIDI interface MIDI IN Sound module 2 MIDI IN Drum machine 030-MIDI: 18
19 Mixing audio outputs Computer MIDI interface 1 2 IN OUT IN OUT MIDI OUT MIDI IN Digital piano Audio Out Audio Out Loudspeakers 3 4 IN OUT IN OUT MIDI IN Sound module 1 Audio Out Mixer MIDI IN Sound module 2 Audio Out Drum machine MIDI IN Audio Out Audio Inputs 030-MIDI: 19
20 Confusion of terminologies The use of the words synthesizer, sampler, digital piano, MIDI keyboard, electonic organ, electronic piano, and MIDI controller are often used interchangably, especially as marketing terms Always check the functionalities of a MIDI device before purchasing it 030-MIDI: 20
21 Confusion: an example Samplers are essentially digital recorders with some control functions such as playing back samples at a different pitch Synthesizers generate sound by computing its waveform in real time, using, for example, Frequency Modulation (FM) synthesis algorithms 030-MIDI: 21
22 Confusion: an example continued The majority of today s synthesizers are actually sample playback devices. Waveform data are often stored in disk or ROM Does a sound card with wavetables function as a synthesizer or sampler? 030-MIDI: 22
23 More jargons: polyphony A sound module is said to be polyphonic if it can play more than one note at a time Otherwise, it s monophonic Modern sound modules often support 32-note or 64-note polyphony What if five keys are pressed at the same time on a digital piano with 4-note polyphony? 030-MIDI: 23
24 MIDI channels There are 16 logical MIDI channels Channels are identified by a 4 bit number in some messages (Channel messages) A device can be set to receive commands from, or send commands to, a specific set of channels only How a device respond to channel commands depends on the MIDI mode it is in 030-MIDI: 24
25 Sound set Channel Patch (Percussion) Patch number / Program number 1 Acoustic Grand Piano 2 Bright Acoustic Piano 3 Electric Grand Piano : : : : 41 Violin 42 Viola 43 Cello 44 Contrbass : : : : Voice / Timbre Applause Gunshot Sound set / Patch map 030-MIDI: 25
26 Voices and patches Voices are sounds of instruments (e.g., acoustic grand piano, violin) Patches are assignment of voices. There are 128 patches in MIDI Example: in a particular sound module, patch 1 can be assigned to the voice of marimba, patch 2 violin, etc. The association of all patch numbers to sounds is called the patch map (example later) 030-MIDI: 26
27 Patches and programs The word patch originates from the use of real patch cables in some sound systems to select voices Patches are called programs in some contexts MIDI Program Change message instruct devices to change the patch of a certain channel Yet, having only 128 programs may not be enough for sound systems 030-MIDI: 27
28 Banks (no money, though) A bank or soundbank is an extension of a patch. There are possible banks MIDI Bank Select message instruct devices to change its bank, a Program Change message must follow it A Bank Select message can be seen as an instruction for a device to change its internal patch map Confusion, again: soundbank is often used to describe a sound set 030-MIDI: 28
29 Multitimbral instruments A sound module is said to be multitimbral if it is capable of producing two or more different instrument sounds at the same time Example: a synthesizer that can produce a piano sound and a marimba sound at the same time is multitimbral What s the difference between a polyphonic sound module and a multitimbral one? Can a sound module be both polyphonic and multitimbral? 030-MIDI: 29
30 MIDI modes MIDI modes establish the relationship between channels and voice-assignment methods within a synthesizer The modes are Omni On/Off and Mono/Poly Each device has a basic channel for sending or receiving MIDI messages The number of voices for devices supporting mono mode is also used in one of the MIDI modes 030-MIDI: 30
31 MIDI modes: Omni on/off Omni on Omni off Mono Poly Omni off : Channel commands are recognized only if it matches the receiving channel or channel range Omni on : All commands are recognized, regardless of their channel numbers 030-MIDI: 31
32 MIDI modes: Mono, Poly Omni on Omni off Mono Poly Poly : Voices are assigned polyphonically. Simultaneous sounding of different notes possible Mono : Often assigned one voice per channel. Note On commands on a channel causes all other sounding notes in that channel to be turned off 030-MIDI: 32
33 MIDI messages MIDI messages consists of a status byte (0x80 0xFF) and zero or more data bytes (0x00 0x7F) A single message can occupy one, two or three bytes including the status System exclusive messages (described later) occupy a varying number of bytes 030-MIDI: 33
34 MIDI message types Channel messages Channel voice messages Channel mode messages System messages System common messages System real time messages System exclusive messages 030-MIDI: 34
35 Channel messages: a summary Status Message (hex) Data1 Data2 Note Off 8n NoteNo Velocity Note On 9n NoteNo Velocity Polyphonic Key Pressure An NoteNo Pressure Control Change Bn Controller Value Program Change Cn PgmNo Channel Pressure Dn Pressure Pitch Bend En LSB MSB n: zero-based channel number 030-MIDI: 35
36 Channel voice messages Note Off (0x8n), Note On (0x9n): a note is turned on or off. Followed by a note number and a velocity The nibble n corresponds to the channel number n=0 channel 1, n=1 channel 2, and so on A Note On message with velocity 0 is equivalent to a Note Off message with velocity 0x40 (Why do we need that? Explained later) 030-MIDI: 36
37 More channel voice message Polyphonic Key Pressure (0xAn): change of key pressure after it has been turned on Followed by note number and a pressure value Also called Polyphonic Aftertouch Useful for controllers for string instruments, e.g., violin 030-MIDI: 37
38 Note numbers and octave number Each note is assigned a numeric value, which is transmitted with any Note On/Off message Middle C has a reference value of 60 (0x3C) To distinguish notes from different octaves, an octave number is appended to the note name Middle C is C4 (some systems use C3, C5 or even C6) Octave numbers change at the B C boundary, so B3 and C4 is one semitone apart, so is C4 and C MIDI: 38
39 The piano keyboard C 3 D 3 F 3 G 3 A 3 C 4 D 4 F 4 G 4 A 4 D 3 E 3 G 3 A 3 B 3 D 4 E 4 G 4 A 4 B 4 C3 D3 E3 F3 G3 A3 B3 C4 D4 E4 F4 G4 A4 B4 030-MIDI: 39
40 Velocity Interpretation of the Velocity byte is left to the receiving instrument Usually indicates how hard or fast a key has been pressed or released The larger the value, the stronger the velocity-controlled effect Devices without velocity sensitivity should use a velocity of 0x MIDI: 40
41 More channel voice messages Control Change (0xBn): change controller values. Followed by controller number, ranging from 0 to 119, then controller value Note that controller here is different from the controller in keyboard controller Program Change (0xCn): change internal patch map, followed by program (patch) number 030-MIDI: 41
42 Even more channel voice messages Channel Pressure (0xDn): change of key pressure for all keys of the channel. Followed by the pressure amount Channel Pressure is also called Channel Aftertouch Pitch Bend (or pitch wheel) (0xEn): modify the pitch of sounding notes. Followed first by least significant seven bits, then the most significant seven bits of pitch bend value. 0x2000 means centered pitch wheel 030-MIDI: 42
43 Controllers 0 Bank select 70 Sound controller 1 (default: Sound variation) 1 Modulation wheel or lever 71 Sound controller 2 (default: Timbre/harmonic intensity) 2 Breath controller 72 Sound controller 3 (default: Release time) 3 (undefined) 73 Sound controller 4 (default: Attack time) 4 Foot controller 74 Sound controller 5 (default: Brightness) 5 Portamento time Sound controller 6 10 (no defaults) 6 Data entry MSB General purpose controllers Channel volume (formerly Main volume) 84 Portamento control 8 Balance (undefined) 9 (undefined) 91 Effects 1 depth (formerly External effects depth) 10 Pan 92 Effects 2 depth (formerly Tremolo depth) 11 Expression controller 93 Effects 3 depth (formerly Chorus depth) Effect control 1,2 94 Effects 4 depth (formerly Celeste (detune) depth) (undefined) 95 Effects 5 depth (formerly Phaser depth) General Purpose Controllers Data increment (undefined) 97 Data decrement LSB for values Non-Registered Parameter Number (NRPN) LSB 64 Damper pedal (sustain) 99 Non-Registered Parameter Number (NRPN) MSB 65 Portamento On/Off 100 Registered Parameter Number (RPN) LSB 66 Sostenuto 101 Registered Parameter Number (RPN) MSB 67 Soft pedal (undefined) 68 Legato footswitch (reserved for channel mode messages) 69 Hold MIDI: 43
44 Channel mode messages Channel mode messages are Control Change message with controller number Controller Message 120 All Sound Off 121 Reset All Controllers 122 Local Control 123 All Notes Off 124 Omni Off 125 Omni On 126 Mono On (Poly off) 127 Poly On (Mono off) 030-MIDI: 44
45 System common messages Mainly deal with sequencer operations Also for tuning analog synthesizers Status (hex) F1 F2 F3 F6 F7 Message MIDI Time Code Quarter Frame Song Position Pointer Song Select Tune Request EOX (End Of Exclusive) 030-MIDI: 45
46 System real time messages Used to synchronize clock-based MIDI equipments Status (hex) F8 FA FB FC FE FF Message Timing Clock Start Continue Stop Active Sensing System Reset 030-MIDI: 46
47 System exclusive messages Often called SysEx messages For sending byte sequences to a MIDI device Followed by a one-byte or three-byte (manufacturer) ID number, then a Device ID, the data, and an EOX message MIDI Sample Dump Standard (SDS) specifies the use of SysEx messages to send sampler data dumps between devices 030-MIDI: 47
48 Sending MIDI messages: question Suppose 22 notes are to start sounding simultaneously. What s the time needed to send all the MIDI Note On messages? 030-MIDI: 48
49 Sending MIDI messages: answer Time needed to transmit one byte = 1/ ( ) 31.25k 10 Number of bytes for a Note On message = 3 Time needed to send 22 Note On messages = µs = 21.12ms = 320µs Example MIDI stream: Note On messages on channel 1 for every note from A3 till D4 (piano keyboard here) A B C D E MIDI: 49
50 Running status The status byte takes time to send Simultaneous events of the same type (e.g., Note On) often have the same status byte To save bandwidth, running status is used. The status byte of channel messages are remembered at the receiver Status bytes need not be sent if a message have the same status byte as the preceding message 030-MIDI: 50
51 Running status: example The MIDI data stream shown previously can be shortened Original: A B C D E 40 After using running status: A 40 3B 40 3C 40 3D 40 3E MIDI: 51
52 Running status: another example, question What s the MIDI data stream of a chord where C4, E4 and G4 are turned on in succession, with each note sounding for half a second and turned off when another note starts sounding? Assume that all notes are turned on with velocity 96 and turned off with velocity MIDI: 52
53 Running status: another example, answer Answer: 90 3C C Alternative answer: 90 3C C After using running status: 90 3C 60 3C Now, do you know why Note On with velocity zero is allowed and is indeed often used? 030-MIDI: 53
54 MIDI: problems MIDI does not specify the patch map for instruments Inconsistency may occur between different MIDI instruments having different patch maps. e.g., Acoustic Grand Piano may be patch 1 on one system but patch 13 on another The same MIDI stream played on different sound modules may sound differently Affects portability of MIDI files 030-MIDI: 54
55 The solution: General MIDI General MIDI (GM) System describes the minimum requirement of sound generators Specifies minimum number of voices, sound locations, drum note mapping, octave registration, pitch bend range, and controller usage Does not specify exact timbre and characteristics of instruments Identified by the GM logo 030-MIDI: 55
56 GM system Specifies the followings: GM sound generator requirements GM sound generator recommended hardware GM protocol implementation requirements 030-MIDI: 56
57 GM System Level 1 sound generator requirements Minimum of 24 fully dynamically allocated voices available simultaneously for both melodic and percussive sounds, or 16 dynamically allocated voices for melody and 8 for percussion Support all 16 MIDI polyphonic channels Each channel can play a different instrument 030-MIDI: 57
58 More on GM System Level 1 sound generator requirements At least 128 presets for instruments (MIDI program numbers) conforming to the GM sound set At least 47 preset percussion sounds conforming to the GM percussion map 030-MIDI: 58

63 SMF: Standard MIDI Files Specifies how the MIDI data stream is stored with timing information, the.mid stuff Need to encode timing information A chunk-based file format Support tracks Support meta-events 030-MIDI: 63
64 SMF timing MIDI ticks is the finest unit of timing Header chunk specifies of number of ticks per quarter note or ticks per SMPTE frame The Set Tempo meta-event specifies the number of microseconds per MIDI quarter note The Time Signature meta-event specifies number of MIDI clocks in a metronome click A system common message also deal with MIDI Time Code time 030-MIDI: 64

67 Other parts of the MIDI specification MIDI Time Code (MTC) for synchronization and control of MIDI devices MIDI Show Control (MSC) allow MIDI systems to communication with and to control dedicated intelligent control equipment in theatrical, live performance, multimedia, audio-visual and similar environments 030-MIDI: 67
68 Other parts of the MIDI specification MIDI Machine Control (MMC) allow MIDI systems to communication with and to control some of the more traditional audio recording and production systems MIDI Media Adaptation Layer for IEEE-1394 (Oct 2000) describes how MIDI data is transmitted over IEEE-1394 (Firewire) Downloadable Sounds Specification (DLS) Levels 1, 2, and 2.1, formats for defining musical instruments using waveform information 030-MIDI: 68
69 MIDI: an evaluation Provides a nice framework for musicians to experiment on musical arrangements and orchestrations Favors piano or keyboard type of instruments Flexible, because it does not specify how an instrument should sound Too much flexibility, the same sequence can play very differently under different system configurations 030-MIDI: 69
70 MIDI: an evaluation No standard way of access to synthesizer parameters Lack of bidirectional communication facilities It s a standard anyway (though de facto /di: fæktou/) Any more? 030-MIDI: 70
