I prefer to use an online one, but I'll take whatever you guys suggest.
Um...if they exist, I don't know how they'd work, considering that midi works completely different from mp3. Midi isn't exactly a normal audio format. If said converter did exist, your end product would sound fucking horrible.

Odd...... I thought I remembered converting something into MIDI before....... Well which formats can convert into MIDI?
If I know what midi is, it's completely programed, not recorded, so it's all done by a computer.
Just because they're both audio doesn't mean you can convert them. You can program it yourself but have fun with that.
You really don't want to do that.
Trust me, I've tried before. The results were horrible.
If you're trying to convert to midi for ringtones, I just use myxertones.com.

I could of sworn I converted something to MIDI and it coming out fine....... Is there at least a place that has MIDI versions of songs?

It's possible that by some miracle it could sound cool, but only if you actually like the way midis generally sound on whatever piece (lol "peice") of hardware you happen to have.
It's still pretty damn unlikely that it wouldn't sound like utter shit. :|

But in the mean time, do you know a good place for MIDI music?
Alright see the MIDI files need an output tone/sound selected. That is why they work on computers and are relatively smaller files. You need a program like Fruity Loops Studio or Sonar Home Recording Studio. These will let you edit the MIDI file and then use the programs Softsynths to export the song into .mp3 format. I know no other way to do this.

The only one I know of that's reasonably good is VGMusic, obviously for video game ones. But by "reasonably good" I mean that almost every single one sounds like shit, because they're of course MIDIs and can only hope to come so close to the original songs.

Anyone could make MIDI songs out of any other type of song by using some sort of tracker (or something). I'm only asking because I don't have the time to myself.

they have badass song of time remixes.
So if no one can recommend a good site for MIDI songs, can someone tell me what file types MIDI can convert into?

MP3, WMA, MP4,. and others I don''t know off the top of my head.

I see...... I tried converting some files from MP3 to WMA, but all of the song data (excluding the actual song) was removed. After putting the converted files into my MP3 player and putting up the device, it's gone. It won't play because it doesn't show up on any of the menus which would normally display songs.

Which MP3 player?
Quote from: Squirtlejazz on January 17, 2008, 04:50:24 PM
Can't you just import it as WMA?
I do my transfers manually, and besides, conversions to WMA somehow become invisible once on my MP3 player.

Set the music type you want to the iTunes default, like MP3 or something.
Right click a song thats not in MP3 via iTunes and click "convert". Google it a little for some more info.

Ok, I will.
It's not working. I can't get the converted file.
