programs with different manufacturers is still legible.
Computer programs for music also not only
developed for a personal computer but also extended
to smartphone or smartphone technology. Various
forms and functions of music application programs
already exist. Just keep in mind that the music
application program on a smartphone is not as good
as a personal computer. The functions of music
programs are on smart telephones on average as
music players, simple sound recorders, and
straightforward information applications. The
computer programs on smartphones include: music
player groups: Music Player, MP3Player, JOOX,
SoundCloud, MIDI Player; audio processing group:
WavePad Audio Editor, SingPlay, n-Track Studio;
educational group: Guitar Offline chord, RealDrum,
RealGuitar, Tuner, Metronome, Flute, Midi Sheet
Music, MIDI Sequencer, and many more.
Reviewing MIDI technology as a teaching
medium refers to the development of computational
technology, which is currently developing very
rapidly. The learning process and the current model
are not free from the effects of computing technology.
Computational technology, which has digital
technology with a high level of intelligence is
increasingly easy to use. Through computer
technology that has high capabilities, it is very
necessary to be used for the process of learning
music, especially the practice of musical instruments
such as flutes. Current computer technology in MIDI
already exists in various electronic devices.
Electronic devices have digital computer technology
on musical instruments, such as keyboards, electric
pianos, MIDI wind instruments, and others.
MIDI technology, as part of a tool in the learning
process in both formal and informal education
institutions, is already underway like the Yamaha
educational institutions. MIDI technology, as a tool
or tool, has an impact on effectiveness in the learning
process (Reese, 2002). Also, according to Reese,
MIDI can be used for creative students to compose
music. This becomes interesting if students can learn
musical instruments, such as making musical
accompaniment according to their skills. The
reference sources for the study in using MIDI
technology refer to various literature studies such as
journals, books, literature, seminar results or research
at home and abroad. In this case, the results of studies
or research that publish about the process of music
practice. Along with the development of digital
computer culture and technology, the learning
process developed. The process of learning music
practice, which was initially based manually into a
more interactive and communicative for the learning
process. The process of learning to use computer
technology media is still a lot with the slogan learn by
doing. Learn by doing is meant that every computer
user always learns from using self-taught MIDI
computer technology. MIDI technology is
fundamental to do because learning the art of music
is not only learning in conjunctive but motoric and
effective.
2.2 Technology in Educations
Learning related to technology can indeed be
measured, among others, through performance in
terms of understanding (understanding), mastering
theory, analytical skills and problem-solving, skills in
using tools and understanding routine work
procedures, ability to research natural resources, and
communication skills (Djanali, 2005). Social science,
including music, cannot be separate from Supeno
Djanali's thoughts. Through computing technology
students who take practical lessons can more easily
understand, master and be skilled in using computer
technology to assist in the process of learning music
practice. In the New Paradigm of Higher Education in
Indonesia (2005) also shows that the learning process
must be innovative and follow the latest technological
developments, namely using the CAL (Computer
Aided Learning) system (Naiming, Shudong, Ye, &
Liming, 2009). It is intended that utilising computer
technology and software to assist the learning process
of the practice of musical instruments.
A prospective musician needs a sound source to
get a picture of the shape of musical artwork. Through
computing technology, Peter Manning in the book
Electronic and Computer Music explained that
computing technology which currently has good
artificial intelligence, it is not difficult to realise
sounds that are similar to the original (Manning,
2004). So the sound becomes the primary and
important source in this research. Through sound
sources that are digitally processed, it will make it
easier for a musician or group of musicians. The ease
shown by digital sound is explained a lot in the mind
of Peter Manning.
3 DISCUSSION
The learning model uses computer technology
through a preliminary study that starts from the
problems of each student in the learning process on
accompanying or accompanying instruments.
Companion instruments are usually called
accompaniment instruments. Accompaniment
