Ripping Music

[ultdoomer]

What's the best way to rip MUSs and MIDIs from wads so you can play them in a media player (Windows Media Player, for example)?

Download XWE, open the wad in question, and use the "Save As..." command located in the "Entry" menu.

When I click Sava As..., the dialogue box pops up and gives me the option to save it as an LMP (obviously not what I want), and All Files. I select All Files, add the .mid extention onto the filename and attempt to play it in WMP, but it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?

It doesn't matter what you save it as, as long as the file extension is ".mid" when you play it in your media player and the lump inside the wad is indeed a midi or mus. I'm pretty sure XWE converts .mus to .mid automatically (as I can extract music from the Doom iwads and them still be valid midis), so I'm pretty sure that is not your problem.

i use Adobe Auditon, and record them that way.
