Midi is a type of technology some cat has invented and stuck that shit in keyboards, and with that (midi)keyboard you control the sounds in your soundbank in FL or Reason. And when I say control the sounds I mean being able to play the sound in different octaves or (pitches). Thats the only way I could breakit down.

i knew this thread would bring out some hooligans, you guys can be pretty funny at times.
Gallo, you never mentioned what kind of gear you have or what you would be applying it to. the illmuzik fam can help you if you have problems, but i suggest being a bit more specific and at least do a bit of research before posting.
take care,
