They include not * only the standard MIDI messages that a synthesizer can respond to, but also * "meta-events" that can be used by sequencer programs. There are meta-events * for such information as lyrics, copyrights, tempo indications, time and key * signatures, markers, etc. For more information, see the Standard MIDI Files * 1.0 specification, which is part of the Complete MIDI 1.0 Detailed * Specification published by the MIDI Manufacturer's Association * (<a href = http://www.midi.org>http://www.midi.org</a>). * <p> * The base {@code MidiMessage} class provides access to three types of * information about a MIDI message: * <ul> * <li>The messages's status byte</li> * <li>The total length of the message in bytes (the status byte plus any data * bytes)</li> * <li>A byte array containing the complete message</li> * </ul> * * {@code MidiMessage} includes methods to get, but not set, these values. * Setting them is a subclass responsibility. * <p> * <a name="integersVsBytes"></a> The MIDI standard expresses MIDI data in * bytes. However, because Java<sup>TM</sup> uses signed bytes, the Java Sound * API uses integers instead of bytes when expressing MIDI data. For example, * the {@link #getStatus()} method of {@code MidiMessage} returns MIDI status * bytes as integers. If you are processing MIDI data that originated outside * Java Sound and now is encoded as signed bytes, the bytes can be * converted to integers using this conversion: * * <center>{@code int i = (int)(byte & 0xFF)}</center> * <p> * If you simply need to pass a known MIDI byte value as a method parameter, it * can be expressed directly as an integer, using (for example) decimal or * hexadecimal notation. For instance, to pass the "active sensing" status byte * as the first argument to ShortMessage's * {@link ShortMessage#setMessage(int) setMessage(int)} method, you can express * it as 254 or 0xFE. * * @author David Rivas * @author Kara Kytle * @see Track * @see Sequence * @see Receiver */ public abstract class MidiMessage implements Cloneable { /** * The MIDI message data.
