`Musicians And Computers
`
`TheFmum
`MIDI is just the beginning of a brave new world in music
`zl-tar‘s taking shape. and we can only guess about some of the
`developments that lie ahead. The ability to convert any sound
`into digital information. which can then be manipulated by a
`computer, will change the way music is composed, performed.
`recorded, marketed. and enjoyed.
`Ono exciting development has already been tested by a
`handful ofprofessiorial musicians involved in a trans-continental
`recording session. In this session.
`two studios. by way of a
`satellite hook-up, made it possible for members of the band to
`record their respective parts while separated by thousands of
`miles. Because of the new technology,
`they were able to
`complete their session almost as if they were sitting in the same
`room.
`
`Sometime in the future, we’ll also be seeing inexpensive
`rnultitraclc digital recorders and studio effects gear made as
`compact and portable as your standard video cassette recorder.
`Once such devices are available, musicians will be able to do
`studio quality recording in their borne (or garage) instead of
`spending tens of thousands of dollars to rent a professional
`recording studio. Along with the smaller sizes and cheaper
`prices, we might also get some outrageous fesolros. We may
`soon see the day when a computer can actually correct a singing
`voice. No matter how off-key or horrible a voice is, a computer
`might be able to make digital corrections, giving evelrybody a
`chance at nmsic stardom
`Maybe one day. we'll even have the ability to u-nnslate our
`nlwughrs into MIDI data. We might be able to hum [or think) a
`melody. and it will come out on the insu-urnem of our choice.
`Who ltnows? There miyu eventually even be an “intelligerit"
`computer that can guess at national
`tastes and trends and
`compose a rrurnberone song.
`The way we purchase music may change. too. We may see a
`dial-up service for home computers that we could use to select
`the titles we want. The songs would be downloaded as digital
`information into our home entertainment systems that could play
`them back in perfect fidelity.

`Some keyboards and drum machines have sequencers built-in.
`It's also possible to add a sequencer on as a separate component‘.
`With the help of special software it's even possible to turn a
`personal coroputerinto a sequencer{see CONNECTION 3.2}.
`Having the MIDI technology available in the studio can
`increase the efficiency and productivity of the recording process
`When using MIDI, there’s no need for microphones, tapes, tape
`machines, or a sound proofed room. The sound of an instrument
`can be changed instantly, the tempo of a performance can be
`changed without effecting the pitch (this is impossible when a
`performance is recorded on tape because of what is known as the
`“chipmunk effect”), and when bouncing down traclts, there's no
`mnoremmy
`A M2|I)I studio is a great tool for pre-production because it
`provides a method for musicians to re-arrange, edit, and
`otherwise refine their composition, priorto committing anything
`to ram. Many professional recording studios. in fact, are finding
`their more
`traditional, mtilti-track,
`sound-proofed studios
`bocorrtlng in: popular and are now adding MIDI rooms to their
`facilities.
