Converting audio clip

[Mervin James]

Myabe a trusted software might be a better choice. Check out Audacity

Thanks for the quick reply.

After checking out the site I didn’t notice any midi conversion possibilities, although I didn’t download the complete software.

Have you tried Adobe’s Audition or even possibly Media Encoder?

[Todd Perchert]

I’m not sure Adobe supports midi, I would go ahead and try VLC to convert. If you work with video, you should already have it installed. ☺

Please explain VLC. Sorry, I’m old and not up on the latest tools. :}

Don’t have Audition but hadn’t thought of their media encoder. I have an old copy of that.

Thanks.

Now, I’ve never tried it. But I assume VLC has support for midi – I’ve read that anyways…

VLC – you download here: https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html

From VLC forums:
How to convert is:
choose Media
choose convert / save
select the (midi-)file to be converted
press convert / save
now a window Convert appears. Type in the group box the full path and name of the destination file. This is important.
choose the correct settings
press Start

That post looked like from an older version of VLC. Here’s a screen shot of the new with the Convert/Stream window open.

Thanks. Will give it a go.

There is a free version of ProTools from Avid if you want something to let you edit the midi as well as convert it.

And there is another free midi/analog audio program that works great… But I’m away from the computer it’s on and can’t remember the name, so that last sentence was useless to you. Sorry I mentioned it.
