Converting MIDI to MP3 used to be extremely complicated, but a little-known feature of Apple's iTunes makes it easy. If you don't already have iTunes, just go to www.apple.com/itunes/download and get a free copy. The Windows 2000/XP version is 20.7MB and includes QuickTime. Mac users already have QuickTime, so the OS X download is smaller, at 10.5MB. The following instructions apply to Windows users.

Convert to MP3
Select the MIDIs you want to convert and then right-click on them. This brings up a menu where you can select "Convert Selection to MP3." Choose this, then just sit back. It takes a minute or two for each file to be converted.
Now that you have your favorite MIDI tunes in MP3 format, you can copy them to a portable player or use them to make a music CD.

Can't find the files you just converted? See the next page for a bonus tip.

Bonus Tip
After your files are converted, you may have trouble finding them on your hard drive. By default, iTunes stores these in the My Music folder in a directory called iTunes\iTunes Music. To change this, click on "Edit...Preferences" and choose the "Advanced" tab. The box shows the iTunes Music folder location. Click the "Change" button if you don't like the default location.

This info is sort of helpful, but what I don't like about it is that the midi is converted through itunes' sounds. Some midis turn out okay, but some of them don't sound nice. I prefer Hamienet's mp3 converter. Although this is useful when you don't have access to internet for a while.
