How to Convert MIDI
Click inside the file drop area to upload your MIDI file or drag & drop it.
Locate your MIDI file on your device—typically used for various purposes. Ensure the file is under 50MB to avoid upload issues. If the upload fails, check your internet connection or try compressing the file first.
Choose the format you want to convert your MIDI file to and click 'Convert'.
Choose your desired format based on your needs—different formats suit different purposes, like JPEG for smaller file sizes. The conversion process typically takes a few seconds, depending on file size and server load.

Once the conversion is complete, click the download link to save your converted file. You can then open it in software like a compatible viewer. If the file doesn’t download, ensure your browser allows pop-ups from RunConvert.
You can also send a link to the converted file via email. (Optional)
Enter an email address to receive a secure link to your converted file, which is useful for sharing with clients or accessing later. Links expire after 24 hours for security, and RunConvert ensures your data is protected during transmission.
What is MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface)?
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is not an audio format in the traditional sense but rather a protocol that transmits musical information between electronic instruments and computers. Unlike audio files that contain recorded sounds, MIDI files (.mid, .midi) store performance data: which notes to play, when to play them, how long and how hard to play them, and which instrument sound to use.
MIDI files are extremely compact compared to audio files because they only contain instructions rather than actual sound recordings. This makes them ideal for music composition, editing, and arrangement. When a MIDI file is played, it requires a sound source (such as a synthesizer, sound card, or software instrument) to generate the actual audio based on the instructions in the file.
How to open MIDI?
Opening MIDI files is possible with various music software and media players. Most operating systems include basic MIDI playback capabilities: Windows Media Player on Windows, QuickTime Player on macOS, and specialized MIDI players on Linux. For higher quality playback, digital audio workstations (DAWs) like FL Studio, Ableton Live, and Logic Pro offer superior MIDI rendering.
The sound quality of MIDI playback depends entirely on the sound source used. Hardware synthesizers typically provide the best sound, while computers use soundfonts or virtual instruments. To improve MIDI playback on computers, consider installing high-quality soundfonts or virtual instrument plugins that replace the basic MIDI sounds with more realistic instrument samples.
MIDI is Developed by: MIDI Manufacturers Association
MIDI was Released on: 1983
