You've probably heard us talk about MIDI before. We use it all the time for many different things. Even in songs and genres that have zero virtual instruments. It's commonly used in writing, recording, editing and mixing music, as well as live music performances and lots of other applications. 

Have you used MIDI before? Probably. Did you know you used it? Not necessarily. MIDI is working under the hood of many audio tools without us even noticing. And then there's the obvious stuff like drum programming or using other virtual instruments, where we write, edit and see the actual MIDI events directly. 

It's a relatively simple, but super powerful tool that has been used since the early 80s and that is not going anywhere anytime soon. 

If you feel like you're not 100% sure what you're doing when you're dealing with MIDI, this episode is for you. If you want to know what the various values and parameters actually do, this is for you. If you just want to get a better understanding of the concept, routing, MIDI maps, keyswitches, articulations, etc., this episode is also for you. 

Let's jump in!
