Abstract:
Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) message can command synthesizers to produce sound. This paper presents the method to generate MIDI message from microprocessor. This system is based on MIDI protocol and wavetable synthesis technique of sound synthesis theory. The main goal is to create a low cost drum sequencer. The application outlined in this work is the MIDI drum sequencer that command synthesizer to generate drum sounds .These sounds can be recorded so that they can be played back using a synthesizer or PC. No microphone is required for recording MIDI drum. The technique for recording is called sampling.
