Where do I begin... You can do so much with midi. This was another fun chapter, all you need is a keyboard and even if you don't have a keyboard, they have midi guitars and drum pads you can use. You can even use your computer keys if you don't have a keyboard and all you need to do is download the program for it. You can make a song just using midi. I went through the chapter and learned about the virtual instruments that come with Pro Tools and how they are used. I played with the midi for a while and came up with a few beats with drums, guitar, bass and keyboard. Definently going to attempt to mess with it more.
