Hi Andrew,

Yes, you can just set the recording output to What You Hear, and record the
output from the sound card using Sound Forge, Total Recorder, or any of
those.  Play the MIDI back in Winamp, and record it using Sound Forge, or
one of the others mentioned.

Another way you might be able to do it, though I have never tried it yet, is
to use Winamp's own Wave Writer plugin.  This records any output from Winamp
directly to a WAV file.  Then you can convert the Wav to an MP3.

All the best

  Hi Steve,

  Ok, how exactly would this work - are you saying that the sound card when
I play an MP3 or other audio is transmitting data to the midi port?  If so,
what is the success of doing such an operation (i.e, have you tried it)?

  Thanks.
  Andrew.

  Hi Andrew,

  What about using a sound recorder, such as Total Recorder, or Sound Forge,
to record the output from the MIDI port on the sound card, then save it as
MP3?  That would certainly do it.

  All the best

    Hi,

    There may be some way of doing it, but MIDI and MP3/Wave data are very
different - MIDI data being data that MIDI software reads and plays it
through the MIDI output system, whereas MP3/Wav is just pure sound data.

    If there is any software that does this, which I doubt, it would have to
be quite expensive, quite technical and possibly won't give you what you
want.

    Let me know if you find anything as I would be interested to hear
results.

    Thanks.
    Andrew.

hope that it  will certainly be a great learning experience from lot of
senior experts in this field of adoptic technology which brings me to my
question on hand  and that is, there  anyway to convert mp3/wave to midi
format? if yes, How can it be done? Much appreciation for your time...
