5-6 Using Multimedia
Using External Stereo Speakers
For full stereo sound impact, you can plug a pair of stereo speakers into the
line-out jack located on the left side of the system. Adjust the volume through
software, with the volume control knob located on the left side of the system,
or through the controls on the speakers.
MIDI Files
The musical instrument digital interface (MIDI) lets you enhance a presen-
tation by adding computer-generated music and sound effects. Using MIDI,
you can record multiple tracks of performances from a master controller,
such as a keyboard, and orchestrate playback on one or more instruments. You
can also purchase a wide range of public domain and commercial recordings
in MIDI format.
MIDI files require only a fraction of the storage space of digital audio files.
