Abstract

The Web MIDI API is intended to connect a browser app with Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) devices and make them interact. Such an interface deals with exchanging MIDI messages between a browser app and an external MIDI system, either physical or virtual. The standardization by the World Wide Web (W3C) Consortium started about 10 years ago, with a first public draft published on October 2012, and the process is not over yet. Because this technology can pave the way for innovative applications in musical and extra-musical fields, the present paper aims to unveil the main features of the API, remarking its advantages and drawbacks and discussing several applications that could take benefit from its adoption.

Web MIDI API:现状与未来展望

Web MIDI API旨在将浏览器应用程序与乐器数字接口（MIDI）设备连接起来，并使它们进行交互。这样的接口处理浏览器应用程序和外部MIDI系统（物理或虚拟）之间的MIDI消息交换。万维网联盟的标准化始于大约10年前，2012年10月发布了第一份公开草案，但这一过程尚未结束。由于这项技术可以为音乐和音乐外领域的创新应用铺平道路，本文旨在揭示API的主要功能，指出其优点和缺点，并讨论可以从其采用中受益的几个应用。
