|

|
||
Here's one:
|
||
|
||
ZIPI (Zeta Instrument Processor Interface) is a proposed replacement
|
||
for MIDI developed by Zeta Instruments and UC Berkeley's CNMAT (Center
|
||
for New Music and Audio Technologies). ZIPI addresses many of MIDI's
|
||
limitations; including bandwidth, number of channels, etc., as well
|
||
as offering special control parameters for non-keyboard-based controllers
|
||
such as data gloves, guitars, wind controllers, etc. Recently, the
|
||
ZIPI specification has been made available by anonymous ftp at the
|
||
following sites:
|
||
|
||
mitpress.mit.edu:/pub/Computer-Music-Journal/Texts/ZIPI/
|
||
ccrma-ftp.stanford.edu:/pub/Publications/cmj/Texts/ZIPI/
|
||
|
||
In these directories are a README file and 6 articles in ASCII text and
|
||
PostScript formats.
|
||
|
||
Those who do not have anonymous ftp access may send their name and postal
|
||
address to zipi@cnmat.berkeley.edu for paper copies of the ZIPI specification.
|
||
|
||
ZIPI may have its name changed since its creators are thinking of dropping
|
||
the "Zeta" part to make it more palatable to other manufacturers. Zeta
|
||
hopes to introduce the first ZIPI-compatible guitar controller (with built
|
||
in synthesizer and MIDI I/O) at the Winter NAMM, followed by a high-end
|
||
ZIPI-compatible synthesizer module.
|
||
|
||
I am not affiliated with Zeta or CNMAT, but one of the readers of
|
||
the Digital Guitar mailing list is an affiliate. :)
