"midi" stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface and is a language that allows any computer or “midi device” to interrupt and play back a set of instructions which will reproduce sound.
Since music is nothing more than a ‘series of events happening at a specific time’, these “events” can be recorded and played back digitally. All recorded music you hear nowadays is midi in one shape or another be it TV, radio, or whatever.
There is a downside to midi tho. Quality.
If one should play a midi file on a little Casio piano or Wal-Mart computer, it’s gonna sound cheap and very cheesy indeed because of their limited playback capabilities. If on the other hand however, you play the same file across a $4K Italian sound module, you cannot tell it from the New York Philharmonic Orchestra.
I plugged my bass guitar into my computer and recorded the first 10 measures of the bass line of the song “In the Mood”. This is the list of events that the computer heard/saw/recorded.
Subsequently, I can now take that file, feed it into my stage sound module and it allows me then to play my guitar "over the top" "of myself" playing bass.
