i wanted to share one of my favorite time-wasters, the midi to chiptune converter program known as GXSCC! https://meme.institute/gxscc/

i'm also including my personal collection of MIDI files - it's a mix of sounds from anime, gitaroo man, hamtaro, harvest moon, katamari, mario paint, umjammer lammy, pokemon, sailor moon, & misc. :-) https://files.catbox.moe/oqkcqv.zip

where do you guys get your midis?

Ooooh, midis. I used to collect midis like crazy when I was a teenager--and kept them on 3.5 inch floppy disks, lol!

When I was putting together my Halloween midi collection, I just sorta scoured the web, including the geocities archives and archive.org, for songs. I haven't really found them in any one place, but kinda everywhere. I'll often plug in the song title in a search and cross my fingers, lol.

Are you tryna tell me people DON't keep their midis on 3.5 disks anymore!?!?



 :grin: I have a USB floppy drive from 2000 that still works with a modern mac. GXSCC is great (I used it for the music on my VR page) I also really like using an MT-32 emulator called MUNT https://sourceforge.net/projects/munt/ but its a lil annoying to setup as you have to search from rom files.

HERE is a zip of my disks, they are mostly regular popular music that just happened to sound good on midi! - https://melonking.net/files/Daniels-Midis.zip

And same, midi sites are hit and miss, Iv never found one where everything sounds good or that has everything. I'm surprised there is not a community of expert midi makers out there somewhere.

This is BADLY NEEDED and if you find one please point me to it!!!! I have an old synthesizer that I barely know how to use, and it uses MIDI primarily to do everything. I also enjoy making midi music on https://signal.vercel.app/ (also https://onlinesequencer.net/), and I've found most people only interact with MIDI as a sort of stepping stone to get somewhere else. But I love it as its own end. I've got some songs I've done on my Music page, but they're all converted to .wav, because I figured no one would want the .midi files themselves.

Let me share my personal link collection of MIDI sites with you.

Game MIDIs of all kind. Has lots of Amiga Music MODs too.
http://www.mirsoft.info/gamemids.php
Some classical MIDIs
https://royalfreemusicsociety.org.uk/midi-file-archive
Classical MIDIs, especially from the U.K.
http://www.learnchoralmusic.co.uk/complist.html
Wanna party? Irish MIDIs!
http://www.irishmidifiles.ie/midifiles.htm

midi.ru was a good inspiration too, but that site doesn't exist anymore. You could make a video game soundtrack from the songs there.

Ah, I also have that on my machine, downloaded a quite long time ago. Also works to some extent in GNU/Linux under WINE too; but the main fault there is you have to specify MIDI file name on the command line since drag & drop doesn't work.

In case anyone here hadn't tried this and hadn't pored through the original manual, I'll let you in on one "secret":
  • Double-click on the GXSCC logo on the top-left of the window, and the program will turn into a (different thing) with a completely different sound!
  • Double-click there again, and it would return back to being (the thing it would normally be).
