A MIDI device is a musical instrument or other device that can send and receive MIDI data. MIDI data is a protocol that allows electronic musical instruments and computers to communicate with each other. It is used to control a wide range of musical parameters, such as pitch, velocity, and duration.
MIDI devices are an essential part of many modern music production setups. They allow musicians to connect and control a variety of instruments and sound modules, and to create complex and sophisticated musical arrangements. MIDI devices can also be used to control lighting, effects, and other stage equipment.
