Mid2Mod Converter
ver 0.9
Basically, this is a small utility program that I threw together.
What it is suppose to do is convert SMF Midi files to Module files.
The program will read in the first 4 tracks from the midi file that
contain music, and place the notes into the module file. Nothing
else is converted, including song names, track names, music speed,
or volume. This is a bare bones converter.
To use the program type the following command:
mid2mod [midifile.mid] [output.mod] [magicnumber]
- The midifile is the midi file that you would like to
- The output file is the filename of the module that is created.
If you do not provide a name, the midi filename will be used,
except that it will have a .mod extension instead.
- The magic number is used to determine how the notes length of
the midi file will be translated. Basically the larger the
number, the smaller the notes lengths, but the module will be
less accurate. The smaller the number, the notes will be of
greater length, with more accuracy. The default is 20. I
would recommend staying within a range of 10 to 60.
Although this program works fine on many midi files, some of them
do not translate well at all. I don't know if this is because they
are not standard midi files, or I am doing something wrong.
However, I do not plan on fixing this program unless a decent
number of people would like me to.
