Introduction
Standard MIDI files (SMF) are small files that doesn't contain any sound. Instead they contain commands that instructs a synthesizer when and what to play. MIDI files comes in two main formats known as format 0 and 1. Format 0 contains one track with multiple MIDI channels, format 1 contains several tracks with each track having its own MIDI Channel.

 

MIDI format conversion
Sometimes you might want to convert from one format to another. As an example many hardware MIDI players only reads format 0 files. You can use Sweet MIDI Converter to convert all your format 1 files into format 0 files in a matter of seconds.

 

Convert MIDI files into Wave/Aiff or MP3 files
It's also possible to convert a MIDI file into a wave/aiff or mp3 file. Many software that allows this, playback the MIDI file in real-time and then record what is played and save it as an audio file. On the contrary, Sweet MIDI Converter reads the file and converts it into an audio file as fast as your computers is capable. This is made possible by using QuickTime and for mp3 files by using the free Lame MP3 encoder.
