You've all heard them before. They're the little electronic music you'll hear on web pages. People personalize sites by including a MIDI of their favorite song or a song which describes their mood. But you'll also hear MIDI sequencing on CDs - whether it supplies a drum track, looping, or some instrument that a musician doesn't otherwise have access to. These MIDI tracks will sound as good as the system you play it on. On a computer, you'll most likely hear a synthy quality to it. Play them back through a MIDI compatible instrument or sound module and you can get virtual orchestras. But perhaps most appealing about MIDIs is that they are extremely small in byte size. Whereas WAVs or performances will run into megabytes and megabytes, and RealAudio of actual recordings can be interrupted during playback due to network traffic, a MIDI of the same song will most always be under 50K.

The tradeoff is a MIDI can't have vocals, but it CAN have a voice track. (You can substitute an instrument for the vocals...keeping the vocal melody, losing the lyrics.)

If you are a musician or are in a band and want to get your music heard on the Internet, you can make MP3s, WAVs, and RA files...and you should. But, you can and should also create a few MIDIs of your songs. Have them play on your website. The quick downloads make them an attractive introduction to your music - then visitors can ask for the real things. A simple little teaser. Or, a must have for already won-over fan.

Pricing for MIDI sequencing is by hour. (Portions of hours will even be charged as portions, not rounded up to the next hour.) The more detailed information you provide me (sheet music/written out notation vs. simply chords) will ensure MUCH quicker work. The only thing I won't work from is ear. (Working by ear creates an INTERPRETATION of your music.) And, of course the shorter the song and/or lesser amounts of instruments make it go even quicker.
