I'm confused. A Midi file simply contains control information for musical
instruments - not the audio. IIRC.

One assumes the OP wants to synthesise the MIDI into audio, and capture
it as an MP3. There are tools to do this under UNIX, but I have no
idea about RISC OS.

Midi Synthesiser or Midi Synthesiser Plus does the first part and plays it
through the sound system.
We have them in stock!

And I've just put Midi Synthesiser on special offer.
The website price won't change until our next upload later this week!

There's also a port of the free Timidity synthesis, that apart from
being free, has the added bonus that it sounds better and can export
directly to file, where the expensive one you suggest here does not.
At least, it did when I last used it, which was years ago.

Or ReMIDI - which is the successor to Timidity

ReMIDI saves raw audio files, SoundCon (Rick Hudson) will convert these to
wave, then CDrip (Roger Darlington) will happily convert these to MP3.

I think Lame can directly take raw audio files, which would avoid the
middle conversion to wave format.
