What is an “event” ?
If you are already familiar with the concept of MIDI “events”, (as
used in many software sequencers), then you can skip to the
next section -
Using The Event List.
Anything that can be recorded into a MIDI sequencer or song
recorder is called an “event”. The simplest example of an event
would be the pressing of a key on the keyboard. In order to
correctly play back that keypress the sequencer has to memo-
rize a number of important pieces of information;
1. At what point during the song was the key pressed ?
2. Which key was it ?
3. At what speed was it pressed ?
4. At what speed was it released ?
5. After what period of time was it released ?
Armed with these five essential pieces of information, the se-
quencer will be able to accurately reproduce the key exactly as it
was played. The above information can be represented in a sin-
gle line of our
EVENT LIST. Thus:
All of the information described in the earlier list is represented in
one single line of the above event list. Let’s step through the first
line of the list and examine the information it contains.
