Abstract:
1. A method for reproducing MIDI (music instrument digital interface) music based on synchronization information, the method comprising: a first step of detecting MIDI performance information from a musical score or MIDI data; a second step of generating synchronization information, which contains real performance onset time information on an onset time at which each of all notes included in the MIDI performance information is estimated to be performed, from the MIDI performance information or a predetermined synchronization information file; a third step of matching the MIDI performance information and the synchronization information to generate a real MIDI performance table for the notes included in the MIDI performance information; and a fourth step of reproducing MIDI music based on the real MIDI performance table, wherein the real MIDI performance table comprises the real performance onset time information, MIDI performance onset time information, MIDI pitch information, MIDI note length information, MIDI note strength information, and performance classification information of each of the notes included in the MIDI performance information, the performance classification information identifying whether each of the notes included in the MIDI performance information is a note to be performed by a player or a MIDI note to be reproduced from the MIDI performance information.
