MIDI files are a popular format for storing musical data and playing back synthesized sounds. However, they are not compatible with many devices and applications that require audio files. If you want to convert your MIDI files to MP3 on Mac for free, you can use one of the following methods.

    • Drag and drop your MIDI file into the project window. You can also go to File > Import > MIDI File and select your file.
    • Adjust the settings and effects of your MIDI track as you like. You can change the instrument, volume, pan, reverb, etc.

      Method 3: Use Audacity

      Audacity is a free and open-source audio editing software that can also convert MIDI files to MP3 files. You will need to install a soundfont file on your Mac to use this method. A soundfont file is a collection of samples that can be used to synthesize MIDI sounds. You can download a soundfont file from FluidSynth or other sources. Here are the steps:

        • Download and install Audacity and a soundfont file on your Mac.
        • Open Audacity and go to Preferences > Libraries. Click Locate and select the soundfont file you downloaded.
        • Go to File > Import > MIDI and select your MIDI file.
        • Audacity will import your MIDI file as a waveform track. You can edit the track as you like.
        • Go to File > Export > Export as MP3 and choose the settings for your MP3 file.
        • Click Save and choose a location to save your MP3 file.

        Method 4: Use iTunes

        iTunes is another free software that comes pre-installed on Mac computers. You can use it to convert your MIDI files to MP3 files, but you will need to burn them to a CD first. Here are the steps:

          • Open iTunes and create a new playlist.
          • Drag and drop your MIDI files into the playlist. You can also go to File > Add to Library and select your files.
          • Insert a blank CD into your Mac and select your playlist.
          • Click Burn and choose Audio CD as the disc format.
          • Wait for the burning process to finish and eject the CD.
          • Re-insert the CD and select it in iTunes.
          • Select all the tracks and go to File > Convert > Create MP3 Version.
          • iTunes will create MP3 files from the CD tracks and add them to your library.
          • You can find your MP3 files in the Music folder on your Mac.
