MIDI (/ˈmɪdi/; short for Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a technical standard that describes a protocol, digital interface and connectors and allows a wide variety of electronic musical instruments, computers and other related devices to connect and communicate with one another. A single MIDI link can carry up to sixteen channels of information, each of which can be routed to a separate device.
MIDI carries event messages that specify notation, pitch and velocity, control signals for parameters such as volume, vibrato, audio panning, cues, and clock signals that set and synchronize tempo between multiple devices. These messages are sent via a MIDI cable to other devices where they control sound generation and other features. This data can also be recorded into a hardware or software device called a sequencer, which can be used to edit the data and to play it back at a later time.
Berliner, or "midi", is a newspaper format with pages normally measuring about 315 by 470 millimetres (12.4in ×18.5in). The Berliner format is slightly taller and marginally wider than the tabloid/compact format; and is both narrower and shorter than the broadsheet format.
Origin
The Berliner format is an innovation in press and an alternative to the broadsheet format. The name refers to the city of Berlin, and was originally contrasted with "North German" and "French" sizes in the early 20th century.

Drawing a Synthesizer in MIDI - Live!
I've been really enjoying making live MIDI art, so I thought it would be cool to try and draw one of my favorite things in the world - a synth! 😀
I tried to make it look 3D, and the biggest challenge was drawing the black keys - I had to get the timing of those notes just right, play them faster and faster and then reverse their direction. Hope you like the results!
The controller is Roli LUMI, the sound is my Sequential Prophet X layered with Steinberg Retrologue. My DAW is Cubase 10.

I compare six of the best midi keyboards around $120 and help you decide which one is best for you. If you are looking to buy a midi keyboard, you need to watch this video. This video is especially helpful if you are new to music production. Depending on your needs, I recommend which of these midi keyboards is right for you. The six keyboards I’m comparing here are the M-Audio Oxygen Pro Mini, the FLkey Mini, Native Instruments M32, Arturia Minilab 3, Akai MPK Mini MK3 and the Akai MPK Mini Plus and the Novation Launchkey Mini MK3. All these keyboards have 25 keys (except for the M32, Oxygen Pro Mini, and the MPK Mini Plus) and are capable of playing sounds through software and your DAW, and also controlling the sounds you make. I will cover features, feel, portability, build quality, and included software. These are midi controller keyboards, so they don’t make sounds on their own, they need software which is included to produce sounds. All keyboards are around $120, except for the MPK Mini Plus which costs a bit more. These midi controller keyboards work with DAWs including Ableton Live, Logic, FL Studio, and many others.

I compare six of the best midi keyboards around $120 and help you decide which one is best for you. If you are looking to buy a midi keyboard, you need to watch this video. This video is especially helpful if you are new to music production. Depending on your needs, I recommend which of these midi keyboards is right for you. The six keyboards I’m comparing here are the M-Audio Oxygen Pro Mini, the FLkey Mini, Native Instruments M32, Arturia Minilab 3, Akai MPK Mini MK3 and the Akai MPK Mini Plus and the Novation Launchkey Mini MK3. All these keyboards have 25 keys (except for the M32, Oxygen Pro Mini, and the MPK Mini Plus) and are capable of playing sounds through software and your DAW, and also controlling the sounds you make. I will cover features, feel, portability, build quality, and included software. These are midi controller keyboards, so they don’t make sounds on their own, they need software which is included to produce sounds. All keyboards are around $120, except for the MPK Mini Plus which costs a bit more. These midi controller keyboards work with DAWs including Ableton Live, Logic, FL Studio, and many others.

Today we are continuing the FL Studio 12 Basics series by showing beginners how to set up and use a midi controller in FL Studio 12.
We also show how to use two or more midi controllers at the same time in your DAW.
►Time Stamps:
1:00 - How to set up one midi controller
3:05 - How to set up two midi controllers at the same time
5:45 - How to link the faders, dials, knobs and rotary encoders to effects and the mixer
We demonstrate on :
M Audio Axiom 49 2nd Gen
Trigger Finger Pro Drum Pad
Arturia Essentials 61
Arturia Minilab mk2
Some of the products are linked below
The best thing about a midi controller is how much it adds to your workflow and how cheap they can be, with very little difference between cheap and expensive devices.
You can use them to audition sounds, record midi, create a pattern, test our effects, record automation and more.
The process is very simple and easy to follow but if at any point you are confused or it isn't working, simply drop a comment or question down below and we will be happy to help, as always.

I've been really enjoying making live MIDI art, so I thought it would be cool to try and draw one of my favorite things in the world - a synth! 😀
I tried to make it look 3D, and the biggest challenge was drawing the black keys - I had to get the timing of those notes just right, play them faster and faster and then reverse their direction. Hope you like the results!
The controller is Roli LUMI, the sound is my Sequential Prophet X layered with Steinberg Retrologue. My DAW is Cubase 10.

I compare six of the best midi keyboards around $120 and help you decide which one is best for you. If you are looking to buy a midi keyboard, you need to watch this video. This video is especially helpful if you are new to music production. Depending on your needs, I recommend which of these midi keyboards is right for you. The six keyboards I’m comparing here are the M-Audio Oxygen Pro Mini, the FLkey Mini, Native Instruments M32, Arturia Minilab 3, Akai MPK Mini MK3 and the Akai MPK Mini Plus and the Novation Launchkey Mini MK3. All these keyboards have 25 keys (except for the M32, Oxygen Pro Mini, and the MPK Mini Plus) and are capable of playing sounds through software and your DAW, and also controlling the sounds you make. I will cover features, feel, portability, build quality, and included software. These are midi controller keyboards, so they don’t make sounds on their own, they need software which is included to produce sounds. All keyboards are around $120, except for the MPK Mini Plus which costs a bit more. These midi controller keyboards work with DAWs including Ableton Live, Logic, FL Studio, and many others.

Today we are continuing the FL Studio 12 Basics series by showing beginners how to set up and use a midi controller in FL Studio 12.
We also show how to use two or more midi controllers at the same time in your DAW.
►Time Stamps:
1:00 - How to set up one midi controller
3:05 - How to set up two midi controllers at the same time
5:45 - How to link the faders, dials, knobs and rotary encoders to effects and the mixer
We demonstrate on :
M Audio Axiom 49 2nd Gen
Trigger Finger Pro Drum Pad
Arturia Essentials 61
Arturia Minilab mk2
Some of the products are linked below
The best thing about a midi controller is how much it adds to your workflow and how cheap they can be, with very little difference between cheap and expensive devices.
You can use them to audition sounds, record midi, create a pattern, test our effects, record automation and more.
The process is very simple and easy to follow but if at any point you are confused or it isn't working, simply drop a comment or question down below and we will be happy to help, as always.

I've been really enjoying making live MIDI art, so I thought it would be cool to try and draw one of my favorite things in the world - a synth! 😀
I tried to make it look 3D, and the biggest challenge was drawing the black keys - I had to get the timing of those notes just right, play them faster and faster and then reverse their direction. Hope you like the results!
The controller is Roli LUMI, the sound is my Sequential Prophet X layered with Steinberg Retrologue. My DAW is Cubase 10.

I compare six of the best midi keyboards around $120 and help you decide which one is best for you. If you are looking to buy a midi keyboard, you need to watch this video. This video is especially helpful if you are new to music production. Depending on your needs, I recommend which of these midi keyboards is right for you. The six keyboards I’m comparing here are the M-Audio Oxygen Pro Mini, the FLkey Mini, Native Instruments M32, Arturia Minilab 3, Akai MPK Mini MK3 and the Akai MPK Mini Plus and the Novation Launchkey Mini MK3. All these keyboards have 25 keys (except for the M32, Oxygen Pro Mini, and the MPK Mini Plus) and are capable of playing sounds through software and your DAW, and also controlling the sounds you make. I will cover features, feel, portability, build quality, and included software. These are midi controller keyboards, so they don’t make sounds on their own, they need software which is included to produce sounds. All keyboards are around $120, except for the MPK Mini Plus which costs a bit more. These midi controller keyboards work with DAWs including Ableton Live, Logic, FL Studio, and many others.

The best thing about a midi controller is how much it adds to your workflow and how cheap they can be, with very little difference between cheap and expensive devices.
You can use them to audition sounds, record midi, create a pattern, test our effects, record automation and more.
The process is very simple and easy to follow but if at any point you are confused or it isn't working, simply drop a comment or question down below and we will be happy to help, as always.

I've been really enjoying making live MIDI art, so I thought it would be cool to try and draw one of my favorite things in the world - a synth! 😀
I tried to make it look 3D, and the biggest challenge was drawing the black keys - I had to get the timing of those notes just right, play them faster and faster and then reverse their direction. Hope you like the results!
The controller is Roli LUMI, the sound is my Sequential Prophet X layered with Steinberg Retrologue. My DAW is Cubase 10.
