Message definition (Tutorials/MIDI on Linux)

There are MIDI files with the .MID extension, containing music in MIDI data format. One way to explain it is in culinary terms. Listening to music on a Compact Disc is similar to eating in a restaurant, and MP3 would be comparable to fast food. In addition, a MIDI file is like a recipe: you have to get the proper ingredients and use cooking utensils. Instead of oven, pots and pans you will be using MIDI synthesizers. Like any good geek and Linux user, you will want to change the recipe and ingredients. Then do it! In [[Special:myLanguage/KMid2|KMid]] you can open the "channels" window and switch the piano for a guitar or whatever you prefer.
