SUMMARY:Orchestral Articulation Profile NAMM 2024
DESCRIPTION:There are many orchestral sample libraries in the market\, and they are essential for film scoring\, game audio\, studio\, and live MIDI applications. These orchestral libraries have many kinds of articulations.   \nFor example\, a string library might have a different set of samples for every articulation including marcato\, staccato\, pizzicato\, etc. \nHowever\, there is no industry standard method-the method for selecting these different articulations has been different for each developer.  Many developers use notes at the lower end of the MIDI note range for “key switching”\, but the actual keys used are different between different developers. Some developers use CC messages to switch between articulations\, but again there is no industry wide consistency. Some plugin formats now have the ability for per note selection of articulations\, but again the method for inputting that data is different for different applications.  \nIt is the goal of the MIDI-CI Profile for Note On Orchestral Articulation to provide a consistent way to encode articulation information directly in the MIDI 2.0 Note On message\, using the Attribute Type and Attribute Data fields. \nIn arriving at this Profile\, a study was made of orchestral instrument families\, choir\, big band instruments\, guitar\, keyboard instruments\, and various non-western instruments to evaluate the degree to which they share common performance attributes and sound production techniques. Notation symbols and performance indications were also considered to determine\, for example\, how successfully a violin note marked with a trill might result in a musically meaningful or analogous articulation when the part is copied to an instrument as far afield as timpani—all without the composer having to re-articulate the timpani part\, at least initially. \nThe Profile provides a comprehensive yet concise system of articulation mapping that includes a wide palette of articulation types and supports articulation equivalence across eight instrument categories. \nThe Profile was designed to offer articulation equivalence — a system of articulation mapping that allows a passage articulated for one instrument to be copied to another track and playedplay back with an equivalent or analogous articulation\, regardless of the target instrument type. \nWhen implemented by sample library developers\, the Profile will greatly aid composers in highly significant ways. \nFirst\, it will simplify the process of substituting or layering sounds from the same or different sample libraries; Second\, it will allow composers to quickly audition and orchestrate unison passages by copying an articulated part to other tracks and hear them to play back with equivalent or analogous articulations. \nJoin us on Youtube for The Orchestral Articulation Profile at NAMM 2024.

SUMMARY:Piano Profile Demo NAMM 2024
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Youtube for the Piano Profile Demo at NAMM 2024 featuring Roland Artist Scott Tibbs. \n \nAt the April 2023 NAMM show\, Synthogy and Roland collaborated to showcase the first public demonstration MIDI 2.0 technology.\nAt the 2024 NAMM show they raised the bar again and showcased a demonstration of the new Piano Profile. \nThis Profile will make creating performances on one piano and playing them back on another more accurate. \nRoland Product Specialist Scott Tibbs performed. \nScott has amassed a large body of music with numerous recording artists such as Beyoncé\, Mary J. Blige\, Howard Jones\, Bruce Springsteen\, Nelly\, Lil’ Wayne\, Jamie Fox\, Robin Thicke\, Bette Midler\, Destiny’s Child\, Jazmine Sullivan\, Amerie\, Jamie Foxx\, Teddy Riley\, Omar Hakim\, Billy Cobham\, and more. \nBackground \nThe piano is arguably the most important musical instrument in Western music traditions. It is essential to all styles of music from classical to jazz to pop\, so when the MIDI Association started to develop Profiles\, a Piano Profile was at the top of the list.  \nThis piano Profile is focused on Acoustic Pianos with mechanical key mechanisms driven by MIDI\, Digital Acoustic Piano Tone Generators (both hardware and software)\, and physical MIDI keyboards that send MIDI messages and the most common of all – Digital Pianos which incorporate both Digital Acoustic Piano Tone Generators and physical MIDI keyboard. The Profile does not address electro-mechanical  pianos or the extended features of digital ensemble pianos. \nGoals\nThe goal is a Piano Profile that defines the MIDI Messages and bi-directional MIDI-CI communication necessary to allow the performance of an acoustic piano piece on one device that supports the Piano Profile to be accurately rendered on any other device which also supports the Profile. \nThe Piano Profile defines the MIDI Messages and bi-directional MIDI-CI communication necessary to allow the performance of an acoustic piano piece on one device that supports the Piano Profile to be accurately rendered on any other device which also supports the Profile.   \nThe Profile provides support for remote (over the internet) performance.   \nThe Piano Profile details what information needs to be included in a Standard MIDI File (SMF2) and the mechanisms needed to accurately reproduce a piano performance from a file.  \nThe Piano Profile addresses the following use cases:  \n\nPiano + tone generator (the most typical MIDI 1.0 use case)\nOnline live broadcasting of piano performances\nOnline lessons with a teacher and student\nMIDI Streaming of recorded piano performances\nMusic production (use of the Piano Profile with DAWs)\nSMF Online sales

SUMMARY:The MPE Profile NAMM 2024
DESCRIPTION:MPE is the bridge between MIDI 1.0 and MIDI 2.0. The new MIDI 2.0 Profile uses bi-directional communication to define exactly what MPE features are supported for an enhanced user experience. \nThe MIDI-CI Profile for MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) specification makes it possible for artists to perform independent gestures for each musical note\, with up to three dimensions of expression. With MPE\, every note a musician plays can be articulated individually for much greater expressiveness. \nMPE has broad support from many DAWs\, Synthesizers and Controllers. \nThe MIDI-CI Profile for MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) specification defines an MMA/AMEI Recommended Practice for hardware and software manufacturers to communicate multidimensional control data between MIDI controller instruments\, synthesizers\, digital audio workstations\, and other products\, using MIDI messages. \nThe specification describes a recommended way of using individual MIDI Channels to achieve per-note control\, enabling richer communication between increasingly expressive MIDI hardware and software. \nJoin us viewing The MPE Profile NAMM 2024 with a performance by Jordan Rudess. \n \n

SUMMARY:The Orchestral Articulation Profile
DESCRIPTION:There are many orchestral sample libraries in the market\, and they are essential for film scoring\, game audio\, studio\, and live MIDI applications. These orchestral libraries have many kinds of articulations.   \nFor example\, a string library might have a different set of samples for every articulation including marcato\, staccato\, pizzicato\, etc. \nHowever\, there is no industry standard method-the method for selecting these different articulations has been different for each developer.  Many developers use notes at the lower end of the MIDI note range for “key switching”\, but the actual keys used are different between different developers. Some developers use CC messages to switch between articulations\, but again there is no industry wide consistency. Some plugin formats now have the ability for per note selection of articulations\, but again the method for inputting that data is different for different applications.  \nIt is the goal of the MIDI-CI Profile for Note On Orchestral Articulation to provide a consistent way to encode articulation information directly in the MIDI 2.0 Note On message\, using the Attribute Type and Attribute Data fields. \nIn arriving at this Profile\, a study was made of orchestral instrument families\, choir\, big band instruments\, guitar\, keyboard instruments\, and various non-western instruments to evaluate the degree to which they share common performance attributes and sound production techniques. Notation symbols and performance indications were also considered to determine\, for example\, how successfully a violin note marked with a trill might result in a musically meaningful or analogous articulation when the part is copied to an instrument as far afield as timpani—all without the composer having to re-articulate the timpani part\, at least initially. \nThe Profile provides a comprehensive yet concise system of articulation mapping that includes a wide palette of articulation types and supports articulation equivalence across eight instrument categories. \nThe Profile was designed to offer articulation equivalence — a system of articulation mapping that allows a passage articulated for one instrument to be copied to another track and playedplay back with an equivalent or analogous articulation\, regardless of the target instrument type. \nWhen implemented by sample library developers\, the Profile will greatly aid composers in highly significant ways. \nFirst\, it will simplify the process of substituting or layering sounds from the same or different sample libraries; Second\, it will allow composers to quickly audition and orchestrate unison passages by copying an articulated part to other tracks and hear them to play back with equivalent or analogous articulations.

SUMMARY:Roland A88mkII and Synthogy Ivory Piano Profile Demo
DESCRIPTION:At the April 2023 NAMM show\, Synthogy and Roland collaborated to showcase the first public demonstration MIDI 2.0 technology.\nThis NAMM show they are raising the bar and showcasing a demonstration of the new Piano Profile. \nThis Profile will make creating performances on one piano and playing them back on another more accurate. \nRoland Product Specialist Scott Tibbs will perform. \nScott has amassed a large body of music with numerous recording artists such as Beyoncé\, Mary J. Blige\, Howard Jones\, Bruce Springsteen\, Nelly\, Lil’ Wayne\, Jamie Fox\, Robin Thicke\, Bette Midler\, Destiny’s Child\, Jazmine Sullivan\, Amerie\, Jamie Foxx\, Teddy Riley\, Omar Hakim\, Billy Cobham\, and more. \nBackground \nThe piano is arguably the most important musical instrument in Western music traditions. It is essential to all styles of music from classical to jazz to pop\, so when the MIDI Association started to develop Profiles\, a Piano Profile was at the top of the list.  \nThis piano Profile is focused on Acoustic Pianos with mechanical key mechanisms driven by MIDI\, Digital Acoustic Piano Tone Generators (both hardware and software)\, and physical MIDI keyboards that send MIDI messages and the most common of all – Digital Pianos which incorporate both Digital Acoustic Piano Tone Generators and physical MIDI keyboard. The Profile does not address electro-mechanical  pianos or the extended features of digital ensemble pianos. \nGoals\nThe goal is a Piano Profile that defines the MIDI Messages and bi-directional MIDI-CI communication necessary to allow the performance of an acoustic piano piece on one device that supports the Piano Profile to be accurately rendered on any other device which also supports the Profile. \nThe Piano Profile defines the MIDI Messages and bi-directional MIDI-CI communication necessary to allow the performance of an acoustic piano piece on one device that supports the Piano Profile to be accurately rendered on any other device which also supports the Profile.   \nThe Profile provides support for remote (over the internet) performance.   \nThe Piano Profile details what information needs to be included in a Standard MIDI File (SMF2) and the mechanisms needed to accurately reproduce a piano performance from a file.  \nThe Piano Profile addresses the following use cases:  \n\nPiano + tone generator (the most typical MIDI 1.0 use case)\nOnline live broadcasting of piano performances\nOnline lessons with a teacher and student\nMIDI Streaming of recorded piano performances\nMusic production (use of the Piano Profile with DAWs)\nSMF Online sales

SUMMARY:Casio's Music Tapestry
DESCRIPTION:Music Tapestry is a technology that creates pictures out of musical performances.  \nThe technology references musical elements such as pitches and touch to generate evolving imagery in real time\, which ultimately forms a single still image when the performer stops playing. Using musical performance analytics based on music theory\,  \nMusic Tapestry parses the subtleties of piano performances for tonality\, beat/rhythm\, chord\, and chord progression and immediately translates these into colors and shapes such as flowers and leaves that match the feel of the music. Fun-spirited playing yields bright\, cheery results\, while chic approaches produce artwork with an accordingly refined ambiance.  \nSince it is impossible to play the same piece in the same way twice\, the result is different with every performance\, never generating exactly the same artwork.

SUMMARY:Ellis Hall- The Ambassador Of Soul
DESCRIPTION:  \n“When people ask me about my blindness\, I tell them\, ‘I didn’t pay the electric bill on time… So they cut the lights out on me!'” – Ellis Hall \nThrough the ages\, there have been a number of famous blind African American male entertainers in Gospel\, Blues\, Soul and Pop but few as unilaterally gifted as Ellis Hall. What other man can claim to have written 3\,800 songs\, sung at the funeral of Helen Keller at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York and before Nelson Mandela in Johannesburg\, Africa\, been a member of Oakland Soul band Tower of Power and a lead voice for the animated California Raisins\, been nominated for a Ovation Theater Award for his very first stage role in “The Gospel At Colonus” (in which he sang\, acted\, and walked the stage and stair props mostly unattended)\, and penned the official song of the city where he grew up: Claxton\, Georgia. Welcome to the unprecedented greatness of Ellis Hall. \nWhen it comes to music\, Ellis Hall does it all. He is a seasoned and accomplished vocalist in possession of a powerful 5-octave range. He is a songwriter\, arranger\, producer and educator that teaches clinics in which he records all the parts of a song in 45 minutes. Ellis’ first instrument was drums before he went on to master piano\, keyboards\, guitar and – his favorites – upright and electric bass. Across a career of 40-plus years and counting\, Ellis Hall has proven himself as an all-around performer that has entertained audiences on five continents\, sharing stages with giants ranging from James Taylor\, Natalie Cole\, Patti LaBelle and Toby Keith to Herbie Hancock\, George Benson\, Bobby Womack\, George Duke and Sheila E. His reputation of excellence earned Ellis the moniker\, “The Ambassador of Soul.”

DESCRIPTION:Members of the Network Transport WG will explain and demo working prototypes of the new network Transport \nThis specification defines the mechanisms and the message format for exchanging Universal MIDI Packet messages via a local area network. This enables the transport of MIDI 1.0 Protocol and MIDI 2.0 Protocol. This also defines discovery of available Network MIDI devices and Hosts\, and management of Network MIDI Sessions. \nSome examples of use-cases in this specification may include: \n\nThe vast majority of people who use MIDI have some type of home studio with a computer and multiple MIDI devices connected together. They record audio and MIDI using Digital Audio Workstation software. \nMost live performance venues and performances combine both networked multi-channel digital audio and a variety of MIDI instruments and controllers. \nCommercial facilities that include broadcast studios\, recording studios\, and universities with networked electronic music/piano labs.\n\nThis specification defines a way to connect those home studios or those performance venues via Ethernet and WiFi on a local area MIDI network.  \nAs of early 2024\, the only available transport for MIDI 2.0 UMP is the USB Device Class Definition for MIDI Devices v2.0. An Ethernet network has some advantages over USB: \n\nA USB cable length is generally limited to about 3 meters (about 9 feet and 10 inches). Ethernet cables can transmit data up to 100 meters without any signal loss or degradation.\nUSB can create problems with grounding noise. Ethernet connections are electrically isolated while USB is not. \nThe connection topology can be changed in software without having to move physical cables.\n\nMany transports for audio use Ethernet. Some of those are open standards (i.e. AES67) and some are proprietary (i.e.\, Dante by Audinate and Q-LAN by QSC).  \nBeing able to run MIDI 2.0 as a control protocol over the same cables that run audio can greatly expand the use of MIDI 2.0. MIDI 2.0 expands outside the limitations of MIDI 1.0\, now using 32 bit words\, no bandwidth limitations\, and room for thousands of new messages. For example\, the high resolution of MIDI 2.0 makes it possible to directly specify and control frequency parameters from 20Hz to 96KHz (and above). \nA MIDI 2.0 UDP transport specification has many benefits for both end users and companies that make MIDI and      audio products.
