30Th Anniversary of MIDI™ Fact Sheet 30th Anniversary of MIDI™ Fact Sheet WHAT IS MIDI: MIDI1 is a GRAMMY®-winning2 technology that allows electronic musical instruments and computers to communicate with each other. It sounds simple, but MIDI is so profoundly significant that even after 30 years it continues to enable new and innovative products and applications. INTRODUCED: January 1983 at the NAMM Show in Anaheim, Calif. MIDI ENABLES: • Digital music creation/editing/production for film/TV/radio. • Digital musical instruments and related products (sequencers, drum machines, electronic drums, guitar controllers, effects processors, etc.) • Songwriting and recording software • Music education software • Interactive (aka adaptive) music playback in console and computer games • Programmed control of stage lighting, animatronics, and sound in live shows and amusement parks • Home automation (lights, security systems) WEB SITE: www.midi.org KEY MMA EXECUTIVES: Athan Billias (Yamaha Corp of America) Bryan Lanser (Muse Research R&D) Denis Labrecque (Analog Devices) Claus Dorner (Dream SA) Tom White (MMA President) MMA BACKGROUND: The MIDI Manufacturers Association is a non-profit formed in 1985 to encourage companies implementing MIDI to make their products interoperable through compliance with MMA Recommended Practices. MMA publishes the official MIDI Specification, provides education about MIDI, licenses MIDI trademarks, and promotes the use of MIDI technology for new applications and in various industries, so that MIDI remains one of the most relevant standards in the entertainment industry.

  • Digital Developments 70'S
    Digital Developments 70’s - 80’s Hybrid Synthesis “GROOVE” • In 1967, Max Mathews and Richard Moore at Bell Labs began to develop Groove (Generated Realtime Operations on Voltage- Controlled Equipment) • In 1970, the Groove system was unveiled at a “Music and Technology” conference in Stockholm. • Groove was a hybrid system which used a Honeywell DDP224 computer to store manual actions (such as twisting knobs, playing a keyboard, etc.) These actions were stored and used to control analog synthesis components in realtime. • Composers Emmanuel Gent and Laurie Spiegel worked with GROOVE Details of GROOVE GROOVE System included: - 2 large disk storage units - a tape drive - an interface for the analog devices (12 8-bit and 2 12-bit converters) - A cathode ray display unit to show the composer a visual representation of the control instructions - Large array of analog components including 12 voltage-controlled oscillators, seven voltage-controlled amplifiers, and two voltage-controlled filters Programming language used: FORTRAN Benefits of the GROOVE System: - 1st digitally controlled realtime system - Musical parameters could be controlled over time (not note-oriented) - Was used to control images too: In 1974, Spiegel used the GROOVE system to implement the program VAMPIRE (Video and Music Program for Interactive, Realtime Exploration) • Laurie Spiegel at the GROOVE Console at Bell Labs (mid 70s) The 1st Digital Synthesizer “The Synclavier” • In 1972, composer Jon Appleton, the Founder and Director of the Bregman Electronic Music Studio at Dartmouth wanted to find a way to control a Moog synthesizer with a computer • He raised this idea to Sydney Alonso, a professor of Engineering at Dartmouth and Cameron Jones, a student in music and computer science at Dartmouth.

  • MIDI に関する技術系統化調査 1 Systematized Survey of MIDI and Related Technologies
    MIDI に関する技術系統化調査 1 Systematized Survey of MIDI and Related Technologies 井土 秀樹 Hideki Izuchi ■ 要旨 MIDI（Musical Instrument Digital Interface）は、日本の MIDI 規格協議会（現 AMEI：一般社団法人 音楽電子事業協会）と国際団体の MMA（MIDI Manufacturers Association）により制定された電子楽器の 演奏データを機器間でデジタル転送するための共通規格である。 1981 年 6 月シカゴで開催された NAMM ショーで、共通インターフェースの可能性に関して、最初の呼 びかけを行ったのがローランド創業者の梯郁太郎である。この呼びかけに応じ、最初の規格案を提案したのが Dave Smith（Sequential Circuits Inc. 社長）であった。両者は MIDI の制定に尽力し、MIDI 規格がその後 の音楽産業の発展に貢献したことが評価され、MIDI 制定から 30 周年を迎える 2013 年第 55 回グラミー賞 にて、連名でテクニカル・グラミー・アワードを受賞している。 MIDI を使って、異なる電子楽器同士がメーカーの枠を超えて同時に鳴らせるようになった。またコンピュー ターと電子楽器をつなぐことが可能となり、コンピューター上で演奏データを作成し、MIDI を通じて電子楽 器を自動演奏させることが可能となった。机の上で音楽の最終形まで制作可能になったことから「Desk Top Music」と呼ばれ、音楽制作の現場を大きく変えることになった。 また 1990 年代大手パソコン通信ホストによりアマチュア・ミュージシャンによる MIDI データの流通が隆 盛を極めた。このような MIDI データの流通には GS 音源、XG 音源と呼ばれたデファクトスタンダードな音色 配置と、SMF（Standard MIDI File）と呼ばれた MIDI データを記憶する共通ファイル・フォーマットの存在 が貢献した。 1992 年通信カラオケの誕生によって MIDI は楽器業界以外にも活躍の場を得ることになる。MIDI データを 使った通信カラオケシステムは、従来のディスクメディアによるカラオケシステムより、新曲の制作・配信が圧 倒的に速く、内蔵曲数の制限も少なく、ランニングコストも安価になったことから、カラオケの低価格・大衆化 を大きく前進させた。また 1999 年 2 月の i モード・サービス開始などにより、コンテンツ・プロバイダのメ ニューサイトで着信メロディーの演奏データを課金のうえダウンロードするのが一般的となり、携帯電話向けコ ンテンツビジネスが急速に拡大した。着信メロディーの演奏データの実体は Standard MIDI File（SMF）で あり、MIDI データが携帯端末の世界でも活用された。 MIDI は演奏データ情報に留まらず、クロック情報、タイムコード情報なども扱えるためレコーディング・ス タジオの制作プロセスを大きく変革した。さらに MIDI の RP（推奨実施例）として MIDI Machine Control、 MIDI Show Control、MIDI Visual Control 等も制定され、マルチトラックレコーダーの機器制御、照明機 器の制御、映像機器の制御にも MIDI が使われるようになった。 1999 年には MIDI を USB ケーブルの中に通すことが可能となり、また 2015 年には Bluetooth Low Energy（BLE）が規格化され、 2016

Magaña 1 Jose Alejandro Magaña Senior Capstone Professor Sammons Performance in EDM - A Study and Analysis of DJing and Live Performance Artists 1. Introduction Electronic Dance Music (EDM) culture today is often times associated with top mainstream DJs and producers such as Deadmau5, Daft Punk, Calvin Harris, and David Guetta. These are artists who have established their career around DJing and/or producing electronic music albums or remixes and have gone on to headline world-renowned music festivals such as Ultra Music Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival, and Coachella. The problem is that the term “DJ” can be mistakenly used interchangeably between someone who mixes between pre-recorded pieces of music at a venue with a set of turntables and a mixer and an artist who manipulates or creates music or audio live using a combination of computers, hardware, and/or controllers.
