Re: Turn ANY song into an 8-bit NES song!

I looked into this before ( But not specifically for 8-bit Composure) , There are MANY programs that DO Compress and convert MP3 files to MIDI. I make music as well as produce so I do have some experience ( If you will ) with these sorts of things. Just wanted to give a heads up to let you guys know it is worth the google to check out some programs to see what suits your ability or if your computer savvy. Another thing that I really wanted to mention is what will really make these Composures Kick-Ass is uploading your completed MIDI files to FruityLoops and adding a nice drumkit or even mapping out your own kit! Happy Music Making!!

Re: Turn ANY song into an 8-bit NES song!

Hi Bin, and welcome to RetroUprising, the best site on the net!

I'm fascinated by the wide variety of sounds that can be made by 'NES' or 'SMS' level technology; people used to think I was crazy when I'd say how some of those games had pretty cool music.

Some of my favorites from Journey to Silius » Nintendo

Re: Turn ANY song into an 8-bit NES song!

Unrelated in a way, but for those people who enjoy 8 bit sounds, this guy has a lot of great NES soundtracks which have been converted to stereo posted on you tube:

If you have any other way of converting MP3's to midi files I'd be very happy to see that - but right now I'm wanting to turn this song into 8 bit.

Re: Turn ANY song into an 8-bit NES song!

My attempt:
[ame="http://www.retrouprising.com/images/misc/midi/HARD_DRIVE_UNDERTALE_-_8-bit.mp3"]8-Bit[/ame]
Midi

To make a MIDI sound like it was created on an NES use this program -
GXSCC

It is easy, just open program, drag midi file to it. Click config. Choose an instrument set. Click ok. Test with Play button. Click "authoring" to save.

But first you have to get a high quality midi file which is not easy. You can find free professional midis for classic songs with google but you will probably have to make your own midi file.

Step 1. Search for existing midi. This might be what you are looking for but you have to pay $2 to find out - https://chordify.net/chords/hard-dri...ng-griffinilla

Step 2. If you can't find an existing midi then make your own. Install Audacity

Step 3. Download WIDI Audio To MIDI VST 1.10 plug-in from
MP3 to MIDI and WAVE to MIDI Converter: WIDISOFT Download
This is a 20 day free trial. There are some free options and other paid options but this one worked for me.

Step 4. Install WIDI. When you do so you need to change the destination folder to the Audacity plugin folder. For Win64 it is "CProgram Files (x86)\Audacity\Plug-Ins" and Win32 it is - "CProgram Files\Audacity\Plug-Ins"

Step 5. Try to get an instrumental version of the song. I found one for this song in google but if you cant find an existing one then you can sometimes use audacity to make one. [ame="http://www.retrouprising.com/images/misc/midi/HARD%20DRIVE%20UNDERTALE%20-%20instrumental.mp3"]Instrumental[/ame]

Step 6. Open your song in Audacity. The first time you open Audacity after installing WIDI it will ask if you want to import WIDI. Click Ok

Step 7. Press Control + A to select whole song.

Step 8. Click Effect then WIDI.

Step 9. Click Option. Click the midi out and midi file buttons. Then click the box under midi file to select a save location.

Step 10. Pick a channel that matches your song. Mostly you are just going for pitch. The instrument will be replaced in final step but should be something similar to original song.

Step 11. If you want to keep tweaking then adjust the equalizer and other main settings.

Step 12. Apply. you should hear jumbled fast sounds. If you don't then screwed up at step 9. The buttons are confusing.

Hopefully you have a decent midi now.

You might like this better than GXSCC
MIDI to MP3 Online Converter - SolMiRe

You still have to create a midi first but it has some different options for making the midi sound like a game.
