MID and WAV File Formats
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface, IPA: /ˈmɪdi/) is an industry-standard protocol that enables electronic musical instruments, computers, and other equipment to communicate, control, and synchronize with each other. MIDI allows computers, synthesizers, MIDI controllers, sound cards, samplers and drum machines to control one another, and to exchange system data.】
All MID compatible controllers, musical instruments, and MIDI-compatible software follow the same MIDI 1.0 specification, and thus interpret any given MIDI message the same way, and so can communicate with and understand each other. For example, if a note is played on a MIDI controller, it will sound at the right pitch on any MIDI instrument whose MIDI In connector is connected to the controller's MIDI Out connector.
Audio professional, musicians and audiophiles are fond of WAV audio because of its audio fidelity. The raw WAV audio file is excellent for editing and audition. Nonetheless, WAV files would be inconvenient to transfer and share due to the large file size. Converting WAV to MP3 is a good idea to deal with the problem. With NoteBurner Audio Converter, you can now easily convert WAV to MP3 and WMA.

MID technology has been standardized and is maintained by the MID Manufacturers Association (MMA). All official MID standards are jointly developed and published by the MMA in Los Angeles, California, USA, and for Japan, the MIDI Committee of the Association of Musical Electronic Industry (AMEI) in Tokyo . The primary reference for MID is The Complete MIDI 1.0 Detailed Specification, document version 96.1, available only from MMA in English, or from AMEI in Japanese.
All MID compatible instruments have a built-in MIDI interface. Some computers' sound cards have a built-in MIDI Interface, whereas others require an external MIDI Interface which is connected to the computer via the game port, the newer DA-15 connector, a USB connector or by FireWire or ethernet.
