In simplest terms:
MIDI files contain the note on/off data for a song. The MIDI file needs
an instrument to control in order to make sound. If you want to play a
MIDI file, most newer Windows computers will have a GM (Or General MIDI)
instrument set that can be the instrument the MIDI file is sent to. You
would then record the output of the MIDI instrument. Some soundcards even
have wavetable samples internally that you may send the MIDI data to to
create more realistic sound than "FM Synthesis" systems included in older
versions of windows and with many older sound cards. OF course, one of
the better GM instruments you already own is probably the DTXpress
module. :)
Now, when it comes down to precise instructions on how to get the MIDI
files you have recorded as MP3 or WAV files, this will be dependent upon
the equipment at your disposal. However, I'll take a stab at it here:
1) Open the MIDI file with Winamp (or windows media player)
2) Set the MIDI output to MPU401 MIDI interface
3) Press play and listen to the DTXpress module and make sure it is
playing what you expect/want the MIDI file to sound like
4) Run the R/L output from the DTXPress to the LINE IN on your sound card.
5) Open your sound recorder of choice (cool edit, soundforge, even Sound
Recorder will work)
6) Record and save as a wave file then convert to MP3 if you like..
Hope that helps... :)
