Midi To Mp3

Hi, all.

My other main hobby besides trains is making MIDI files of classical music into (semi) believable MP3 files. I do this with the use of two free programs:

1. MuseScore

MuseScore homepage

I use it to make my MIDI files. I transfer the music note-by-note into the program from the original score.

2. SynthFont

SynthFont homepage

I use this to tweak my MIDI files, apply soundfonts (samples of real instruments) and effects, and to save the final MP3.

I will sometimes use MIDI files that are not my own, usually from ClassicalMidiConnection or the like. Any that came from them I will make a note to say so; otherwise, I make the MIDI files.

Here's probably one of my best, hope y'all enjoy it!

Turlough O'Carolan was a blind harpist/composer in Ireland during the 18th century. I did a little short harp solo by O'Carolan that I'm pretty proud of and I thought I'd share. It's called Carolan's Concerto.

My soundfonts often sound best as soloists, especially my harp and pianos. This is a prime example. Yes, this was a MIDI. I arranged and sequenced it myself. Enjoy!

Bought myself an orchestra-in-a-box type thing - well worth the $250 I paid for it. :wub:
