From SCUMM v5 onwards, LucasArts games used a dynamic music playback system called iMUSE. This basically consists of standard MIDI data, with embedded System Exclusive (SysEx) messages that act as markers in the song. This allows operations like jumping, looping, adjust the volume of parts, turning on/off parts, changing instruments, and pitch detuning.
