MIDI controller

A MIDI controller is a device that sends digital signals to other musical equipment or software, allowing you to play, control, and manipulate sounds. It typically features keys, pads, knobs, or sliders that translate your physical actions into data, which digital instruments interpret to produce music. Essentially, it acts as a bridge between human performance and electronic sound creation, enabling musicians to shape and control music in real-time without generating sound on its own. MIDI controllers are widely used in studio production, live performances, and music composition for their flexibility and expressive capabilities.
