How MIDI Changed the World of Music with Dave Smith on the BBC & The Orb


The BBC has a piece up on 30 years with MIDI featuring interviews with Dave Smith (the man who brought us MIDI), Alex Paterson of The Orb, and co-producer Dom Beken.  Don't miss the audio player.

"For Dave Smith, MIDI could only become a success if every manufacturer adopted it - 'we had to give it away', he says."
