XM 2 MID
« on: June 06, 2008, 06:27:10 »

HI, (new here)

first off all: big thanks for this masterpiece of coding art...

I want to extract the note timing information from the XI file to create say a midi file from it. A quick search didn't show any results. I am ready to read some code also, XI format definition is open, I guess?

Can somebody point me into the right direction ?

XI? XI is the instrument file format. Do you mean XM? XM to MIDI converters are already available.

ups, yes, sorry.  downloaded MIDI Tracker which should import xm and export midi.
Thanks. Is there something for linux or darwin available, too?

Try timidity, it is a command line tool but does a pretty good job when converting XMs to MIDI.

thanks a lot ! Timidity works great with the -OM switch.
