MIDI Implementation Chart
MIDI has made it possible for a wide range of musical instruments to communicate with each other, but that doesn’t
necessarily mean that the many types of data will all be understood. If communication between two connected MIDI
devices is to be successful, it must take place using only the types of data that they have in common.
It is for this reason that every owner’s manual — for all kinds of MIDI devices — always includes a MIDI
Implementation Chart as a quick reference to the types of MIDI messages it is capable of handling. You should
compare the MIDI Implementation Charts for any two devices in order to find out which types of data can be
exchanged. Since these charts are standardized, you can place them so they overlap. This way you can easily
compare the receiving device with the transmitting device.
