RIFF MIDI (RMID) File Format

The “RMID” format consists of a standard MIDI file enclosed in a RIFF chunk. Enclosing the MIDI file in a “RIFF” chunk allows the file to be consistently identified; for example, an “INFO” list can be included in the file.

The “RMID” form is defined as follows, using the standard RIFF form definition:

<RMID-form>–RIFF ('RMID'// RIFF header

                                                   data( <MIDI-data> ))        // Standard MIDI File
                                                                                                // data

<MIDI-data> is equivalent to a Standard MIDI File.
