El MIDI nació en los años ochenta y, aunque puede ser suplantado por protocolos modernos mucho más eficaces, se ha mantenido casi sin cambios y todavía se utiliza intensamente en la producción de música electrónica. Las razones probablemente radiquen en el papel casi indiscutible de la norma que ha asumido en el campo musical y en el cuidado que han tenido los diseñadores en la redacción de las primeras especificaciones.
De hecho, el MIDI tiene peculiaridades interesantes, entre las que la que más nos interesa aquí es la ligereza de los archivos MIDI (del orden de kB). A través de Internet y el software multimedia, el MIDI se convierte en un medio de uso común. Los archivos Midi pueden insertarse en páginas web y activarse o desactivarse a pedido.

Dixie's Land
|
(Daniel Decatur Emmett) |
|
Away down south in de land ob cotton
Old times dar am not forgotten
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land.
|
Coro:
Den I wish I was in Dixie
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To lib and die in Dixie,
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie.
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie. |
In Dixie Land where I was born in
Early on a frosty mornin'
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land. |
|
Ole missus marry "Will de Weaber,"
William was a gay deceiber;
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land.
|
Coro:
Den I wish I was in Dixie
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To lib and die in Dixie,
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie.
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie. |
But when he put his arm around 'er,
He smiled as fierce as a forty pounder,
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land.
|
|
His face was sharp as a butcher's cleaber,
But dat did not seem to greab' er;
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land.
|
Coro:
Den I wish I was in Dixie
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To lib and die in Dixie,
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie.
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie. |
Ole missus acted de foolish part,
And died for a man dat broke her heart,
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land. |
|
Now here's a health to the next old Missus,
An' all de gals dat want to kiss us;
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land.
|
Coro:
Den I wish I was in Dixie
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To lib and die in Dixie,
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie.
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie. |
But if you want to drive 'way sorrow,
Come and hear dis song tomorrow,
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land. |
|
Dar's buckwheat cakes and Injun batter,
Makes you fat or a little fatter;
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land.
|
Coro:
Den I wish I was in Dixie
Hooray! Hooray!
In Dixie Land I'll take my stand
To lib and die in Dixie,
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie.
Away, away,
away down south in Dixie. |
Den hoe it down an' scratch your grabble,
To Dixie's Land I'm bound to trabble,
Look away! Look away! Look away!
Dixie Land. |
