A MIDI message consists of a status byte, which indicates the type of the message, followed by up to two data bytes that contain the parameters. [37] MIDI messages can be channel messages sent on only one of the 16 channels and monitored only by devices on that channel, or system messages that all devices receive. Each receiving device ignores ...
MIDI includes System Exclusive messages that are extensions of the MIDI format implemented by MIDI manufacturers. Some of the extensions, the "Universal" ones, are a set of the same functions that different manufacturers can implement differently in detail. Some of them are Non Real Time, with no reliable delivery timing. Others are Real Time ...
MIDI time code (MTC) embeds the same timing information as standard SMPTE timecode as a series of small 'quarter-frame' MIDI messages. There is no provision for the user bits in the standard MIDI time code messages, and SysEx messages are used to carry this information instead. The quarter-frame messages are transmitted in a sequence of eight ...
MIDI beat clock defines the following real-time messages: clock (decimal 248, hex 0xF8) start (decimal 250, hex 0xFA) continue (decimal 251, hex 0xFB) stop (decimal 252, hex 0xFC) MIDI also specifies a System Common message called Song Position Pointer (SPP). SPP can be used in conjunction with the above real-time messages for complete sync.
General MIDI logo from the MIDI Manufacturers Association. General MIDI (also known as GM or GM 1) is a standardized specification for electronic musical instruments that respond to MIDI messages. GM was developed by the American MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA) and the Japan MIDI Standards Committee (JMSC) and first published in 1991. The ...
MIDI Tuning Standard (MTS) is a specification of precise musical pitch agreed to by the MIDI Manufacturers Association in the MIDI protocol. MTS allows for both a bulk tuning dump message, giving a tuning for each of 128 notes, and a tuning message for individual notes as they are played.
When any cue is called by a user (typically a stage manager) and/or preprogrammed timeline in a show control software application, the show controller transmits one or more MSC messages from its 'MIDI Out' port. A typical MSC message sequence is: the user has just called a cue; the cue is for lighting device 3; the cue is number 45.8
Timecode formats include MaGIC timecode and MIDI Time Code. The control data in consist of 12-bit Control Message Code (CMC) 4-bit status field, 32-bit Source (Unit and Component, 16-bit each) and 32-bit Destination, and may contain up to 32 Kbytes of data in multiple frames. The CMCs are defined into four classes: Network Management Messages ...
