Stradivarius Violin

Music by computers is a relatively new topic and not so new to those who know him. It is common to think when we talk about computers and music, in thousands of ways to get music through the network; however I refer to music digitally created using the computer as a medium.

MIDI is the acronym of Musical Instrument Digital Interface refers to a standardized protocol widely used in the area of composition and interpretation among other applications. This is the format most commonly used in recording instruments such as keyboards, guitars, violins.

Through my experience over the years in the music and computers, I was able to perform compositions within what I could say satisfactory. At the beginning when I started the quality of my compositions was not the best but for every step that I looked gave an improvement, and now I am ready to share what I have learned in the music generated by computer.

This site is intentional to be a guide for those musicians and composers who are new to MIDI technology and composition through the computer. Feel free to send your comments either through the contact form or simply posting the comment in the blog, I am available to resolve any questions you may have.

A short description of some sections of the site:

MIDI Theory: A brief introduction about the MIDI protocol, I have decided to make it short to make it not cumbersome. I have seen hundreds of sites that provide a more detailed description but honestly I feel that very few take the time to read it.

MIDI Files: A catalog of MIDI files, I must say that as a new site this section is still in development but in a manner open to the public. I added some files of renowned composers and the choice for any visitor can send their files whether or compositions of renowned composers or owned compositions.

MIDI Software: A list of useful software for editing MIDI files, audio recording and MIDI file renders. At its most are just links to pages of the authors except for two programs: The Converter MIDI to WAV Audio Compositor and Timidity++.
