Midi to MUS converter

[Guest deathwarrior]

is there something that converts .mid to .mus, but can handle midi's over 67kb? midi2mus can't seem to manage them.

I believe MIDI2MUS is the only one. However, the problem is with the .MUS format itself, not the converter. Take a look at this:

struct MUSheader {
char ID[4]; // identifier "MUS" 0x1A
WORD scoreLen;

The "scoreLen" is the length of the songs data in bytes. Since it's a 16 bit value, MUS format can only store songs that are smaller than 64K.

To use those MIDI files are MUS, you will have to reduce the MIDI's size (cut some parts or channels out).

Pretty much anything except the original .exe's can handle actual MIDI files nowadays. Just import them like you would a data lump.

strange... i converted a midi that was 67kb to a mus with MIDI2MUS.

it comes up with this when i do a 70kb midi in MIDI2MUS:

Format: 1 Tracks: 10 QTicks: 48
10 Tracks Read
