Music 1770: Intro to Music Technology

Assignment 8—MIDI
(Lecture #12)

Read the selections from the Hosken book and complete the short response that follows.

At the bottom is an old lecture on MIDI. It goes into details that are not likely to be relevant to you unless you get deep into MIDI programming. In class, I tried to stick closer to what’s still relevant to a modern DAW user on an everyday basis. That said, if there was anything you didn't get or want to go over, the video may be useful.
