The package I use to edit and play the midi only saves the output in midi format. How would I convert a midi file to AIFF so I can burn an audio CD.
I have seen suggestions of looping the audio output to the audio input and using a recording program (coaster) but I have an iBook so it doesn't have an audio input. The other suggestion I have seen is using a demo system extension from apple that redirects the sound output to an AIFF. This locks up my system. |

You will need a software synth of some type or a hardware synth with audio input to your computer to turn midi into .aiff. Quicktime may work but not sure. You have to find an app that will use the midi file to recreate the sounds as an audio file and then save it as .aiff. I can't imagine any midi files that are good enough to make it worth the effort to make a CD for though. That is my opinion.
The Coaster app may work if you set up the sound manager control panel correctly. I have seen articles that described using Coaster to record mac 'type to speech' to capture your computer talking and there was no need for any special hardware or wiring. -------------------- ----------------------------------------
