MIDI to WAV converters

Where do I get a MIDI to WAV converter for FREE? Or a WAV recorder? I don't want any demos I want a full working MIDI to WAV converter or WAV recorder. Thanks!!

look on download.com, or go to a serch engine and type in freeware, or get something like kazaa and look for it on there

i tried that and they were all demos :(

thanks for the suggestion though :)

If you have a good sound card, you could play the MIDI, and record it at the same time. Just a suggestion.

i tried, but all the wav recorders i had were demos :mad: argh!

sndrec32?? (in the run menu)

that could only record 60 seconds

Hey!

Dudes! I understand your plight! Right now I am looking for a MIDI to WAVE converter because I need one to finish my AP Music Theory composition. Being the genius I am I programmed part of it, but MIDIs are no good to use waveform effects on. MIDI is sound generated off of a seperate part of your soundcard by playing tones from a bank at different pitches specified by a sort of digital sheet music and that is why there is a problem with getting it to make WAVs.

I used to use my demo version of Acid Pro to convert MIDI to WAV but the trial period ended and I don't want to pay for it. I haven't tried yet but evidently there is a socket in Winamp 2.9 (and only 2.9) that will do the trick. I found a half-decent converter on download.com and I might just pay the license on it.

Still, I'd rather have the source code to do it. I think I might know how do it, just give me a day or two to put an example together. Figure every MIDI bank (except drums) has one tone that is played at a different frequency that represents each pitch. The formula goes something like
freq = base ^ (2 * Oct)
with base being the lowest representation of that note and Oct being the number of octaves higher that it is. The lowest 'C' is about 61.3 Hz so I'm kinda thinking I got this worked out.:cool:

If you are up to programming, use the MM API calls and open one stream that plays the MIDI and another that records at the same time, for the same interval.

I know parksie was writing a midi sequencer.
He might be able to help you.

So whose this Parksie? Sounds like a great guy.

I tried simulating the MIDI output using my PC's internal speaker but can't get it to work in windows. Works fine using QBasic (but haven't tried reading from a MIDI file in QB) but I still need to know how to write Wave data directly into a file. Is there an API or something to simplify that?

Winamp

use the waveout output plugin.
