7MIDI IMPLEMENTATION (ANALOG EXPERIENCE “THE FACTORY” ONLY)

7.1Using the keyboard

Your Analog Factory Keyboard can be used independently of Analog Factory 2.5. It can be used as a standard MIDI controller.

The following information allows you to benefit from your MIDI keyboard, and to help you use it with other software or instruments.

7.2What is MIDI?

MIDI (for Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is a universal standard that allows electronic musical instruments and computers to exchange performance data.

MIDI makes it possible to convey to another musical instrument, an ongoing description of exactly what’s happening during performance. For example, a C key played on your Analog Factory MIDI keyboard has been pressed using a certain amount of velocity, the instrument (Analog Factory 2.5 launched on your computer, itself provided with a MIDI interface) will exactly answer to these MIDI messages.

In other words, MIDI is a language that musical instruments can use to communicate with each other.

The MIDI standard includes 127 MIDI parameters that are pre-assigned to synthesis or sound parameters used by all the MIDI sound modules or software.

Some MIDI specific messages – SysEx, or System Exclusive messages – can also be used by the MIDI-based sound modules or music software to control some specific parameters.
