QuickStart! - MIDI Fundamentals Tutorials


Course Content


MIDI is a powerful tool in the audio professional's tool kit. From creating demos to orchestrating movie scores, MIDI is used in every recording studio around the world. Much like the paper in a player piano, it is used to control the performance of virtual instruments. Author Sam McGuire takes you from the very beginning of MIDI and introduces the basic concepts needed to use MIDI for a variety of tasks. While Logic Studio is used as a basis for the exploration of MIDI, other sequencers are introduced and topics are principle based so that you will be able to work with MIDI on a number of different software workstations. * VTC QuickStart! courses are available only to registered VTC Online University members.
