Once upon a time a bright young fellow named dc 1987 (me) composed some MIDI music on his piano.. then after a while he wanted to make his music into mp3s.. he posted on the TGC forums and people just flamed him and told him to go download a MIDI to mp3 converter.. so the brave handsome young fellow went on a quest through the internet and found a converter and tried converting his music into mp3.. but not knowing that the evil trial version could only convert 60 seconds of his MIDI songs.. then he went out venturing and looking for more converters.. sadly they were all the same... can anybody save this young fellow... any suggestions?

I would really appreciate it...

edit: Sorry about the title i was going to go back and change it but i forgot to

Peace

No help for anyone here because some jackass copyrighted MP3 so you have to pay for one.

You can actually get free MP3 encoders, that aren't licsenced.
Such as the LAME encoder

however, if you are going to use the sounds in a game, I would suggest using Ogg Vorbis, as it is completely free, and you have no restrictions on what you do with it

Erm, why don't you just use MIDI? They're much smaller... I have half an hour of MIDI music on my cellphone, and it's below 1mb.

I think you can do it using itunes; In the options you set import files to mp3, then try import a midi, and it'll convert it to mp3

Well it works for wavs etc... But midis it problably doesn't... worth a try...

You can bet I'm in IRC right now...

With Audacity, you can play your MIDI in any media player you like, and record it by setting Audacity to listen via the PCs output instead of the microphone. You can get some plugins that allow you to save the music as either ogg vorbis or mp3, or even wav.

Best thing is, it's a free process.

You are not alone.
