How can I record my midi songs?

Share your original or public domain compositions here!
Request popular music with the suggestion form on the music store, not here!

All MIDI attachments must be one of the following:
  • Your own, original work submitted under some license that permits free private use (I recommend public domain or Creative Commons).
  • Adapted from works created prior to 1923. This goes for both the composition and arrangement. This means you cannot post MIDI versions of recent songs.

There are lots of good, free MIDI song editors out there. Try searching for any of these: Musink, MuseScore, Sekaiju, Finale Notepad, or Aria Maestosa.

It will be better if you enter, rather than record, your songs because the resulting MIDI files will be more precise and will include the bar lines. It isn't much harder to enter a song in MuseScore than to record it. It might even be easier depending on your playing ability.

As a bonus, starting in Synthesia 11, you can generate XML files from your MuseScore file and have a high quality sheet music display. You should also be able to produce XML from a song you play into MuseScore but I have no idea of how good a job MuseScore will do on producing a correctly notated piece of sheet music from something you play.
