Original sentence: As an electronic protocol, it is notable for its widespread adoption throughout the industry, and for continuing in use since its introduction in 1983.In addition, MIDI is also used to control hardware including recording devices and sound effects modules, as well as live performance equipment such as stage lights and some types of digital effect pedals.MIDI allows computers, synthesizers, MIDI controllers, sound cards, samplers and drum machines to control one another, and to exchange system data.MIDI does not transmit an audio signal or media — it transmits digital data "event messages" such as the pitch and intensity of musical notes to play, control signals for parameters such as volume, vibrato and panning, cues, and clock signals to set the tempo.MIDI technology has been standardized and is maintained by the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA).The MIDI Specification 1.0 was published in August 1983.proposed the MIDI standard in 1981 in a paper for the Audio Engineering Society
Edited sentence: As an electronic protocol, it is notable for its success, both in its widespread adoption throughout the industry, and in remaining essentially unchanged in the face of technological developments since its introduction in 1983.In addition, MIDI is also used to control hardware including recording devices and sound effects modules, as well as live performance equipment such as stage lights and effects pedals.MIDI does not transmit an audio signal or media — it simply transmits digital data "event messages" such as the pitch and intensity of musical notes to play, control signals for parameters such as volume, vibrato and panning, cues, and clock signals to set the tempo.The proposal received widespread enthusiasm within the industry, and the MIDI Specification 1.0 was published in August 1983.Today, Dave Smith is generally regarded as the "Father of MIDI" and MIDI technology has been standardized and is maintained by the MIDI Manufacturers Association (MMA).proposed the MIDI standard in 1981 in a paper to the Audio Engineering Society
