The invention of computer indicates a revolution not only in industry but also in music composition. The combination of new computer science and traditional music opens a new era in the conceptions and skills of music composition, music appreciation, music aesthetics, music media and the way of music interpretation. Despite all these advantages, computerized music is not as fully developed in China now as in other countries. Then how to make such music? What are the secrets of such music? What are the similarities and differences between traditional music and such one? Strategy for MIDI: Its Theory and Practice might offer you a glimpse of the wonderful music world.
MIDI music is both complicated and simple. It might be accomplished just in a studio while one operates the keys. It might also be quite complex since it involves extensive knowledge such as acoustics and electroacoustics. Surely, the problem might be greatly simplified if you have knowledge in its operating system. Taking all factors into consideration, we compiled this book in the hope that it might pave you the way to MIDI.
Since a lot of books in this area are still on the elementary level, this book is sure to promote the development of MIDI making.
