The correct answer is

Musical Instrument Digital Interface

MIDI stands for Musical Instrument Digital Interface. It is a technical standard and communication protocol, developed in the 1980s, that allows electronic musical instruments (such as synthesizers and digital keyboards), computers, and other audio devices to connect with one another, communicate, and control each other's musical performance. Importantly, MIDI does not transmit actual sound or audio; instead, it carries event-based messages, such as which note was pressed, its pitch, its velocity (how hard a key was struck), and when it was released, allowing devices to reproduce or control musical performances digitally. This makes MIDI a widely used standard in music production, composition software, and electronic instruments.
