Traditional Japanese or Chinese MIDI's

[AVataRR]

Hi,

Been looking through the net and they're harder to come by than I thought. Now I know most of you aren't into the "traditional" scene, no matter what culture we're talking about - but maybe there's just a silent few.... too ashamed to admit it. So if you're reading this, make yourself known and give me all your MIDI's!!!!!

Traditional as in chinese or japanese or any other culture ? I have some greek midi's which are cool I would have to look for them if you want them

What.....? What do you mean by "traditional"? You mean old, right? There is NO problem for me to get some "old" chinese music, but hey I can tell you now that you won't like them!

at the expense of me sounding ignorant and being flamed..........what is a MIDI?

midi is a kind of music format with very low quality, but the file size is small, too.

Actually, it depends on what sound card you have. :p MIDI is just a series of instructions and your sound card carries them out. The music from The XFiles and eary TNG episodes were actually MIDI synthesised by a really really expensive syntehsiser - sound card if you like. The CD Music in WarCraft II is also the same.

I should mention that these instructions call "instruments" in your sound card. The quality depends on how well your sound card can replicate the sound of these instruments. You can actually get a MIDI file, convert it to sheets of ordinary notes and get an orchestra to play it.

also, most of the music and sound files from AOE are midi files, too. But the standard sound hardware of most PC don't handle midi too well, so in AOK they all became mp3 files.

I'm considerate by nature. By making this public, I'm sharing to everyone the whatever benifits Yian has to give in response to my personal request. :)
