No, midi sends music information over the midi cable. Information concerning which note you played, for how long, how loud it is played, at which channel, and so on...

So, if your instrument and the computer you're connecting with don't have the same instrument library, the notes, the length, the relative volume and so on will be the same, but it will sound different. Example, you could be playing on a piano, but the sound could be a Trumpet.

What is the purpose of midi?

MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. It's an industry-standard protocol defined in 1982 that enables electronic musical instruments to communicate with each other. MIDI allows computers, synthesizers, MIDI controllers, sound cards, samplers and drum machines to control one another, and to exchange system data. MIDI does not transmit an audio signal or media - it transmits "event messages" such as the pitch and intensity of musical notes to play, control signals for parameters such as volume, vibrato and panning, cues, and clock signals to set the tempo.

How can you transfer midi tracks from Audacity to fl studios without exporting?

Audacity can be used to convert a MIDI track to an audio file, therefore eliminating any editable MIDI data. You can simply keep the MIDI file and open it directly in FL Studio and edit any property of the MIDI, including exchange them for better sounding synthesizers and real audio samplers. FL is, after all, a digital audio workstation specifically designed for sequenced music. Loading a MIDI file will split the tracks for you and you can export any one of them individually as a MIDI or audio file.

What is the difference between midi and digital audio?

MIDI is *NOT* sound. It is performance information. IE: the key C3 was triggered for 1 second at a velocity of 90 Digital Audio is a broad term - sound is captured/stored/modified/played back from combinations of 0's and 1's to re-create an analog sound signal. MIDI is device dependent. it doesn't transmit an audio signal or media. it transmit "event messages" such as pitch and intensity of musical notes to play control signals for parameters such as volume vibrato. midi needs sequence software sound synthesizer lets u record or edit data soo editing is easy. if u digitized bitmap graphic image to vector graphic, midi is used. MIDI file size is small. it requires less memory or file format is small. As they are small, can embedded in web page and load & play quickly. It contains actual signal or voice. Digital Audio: It is device independent. when record a digital audio, signal from analogue sensor like microphone is sampled using frequency and converted to digital format using an ADC converter. for playing music their info is again converted to analogue audio signal. Digitizing audio simply play the audio through a sound card. editing is not easy. file size is large so fie format is.. it not contains actual signal..
