Converting midi2wav using fluidsynth

written by Jonas Wagner, on 2/7/10 8:58 PM.

Converting midi to wav using fluidsynth is not entirely trivial. Here is how I do it:

# convert opensolo.mid to fluidsynth.raw using the soundfont /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2 
fluidsynth -l -i -a file -z 2048 /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2 opensolo.mid
# convert fluidsynth.raw to fluidsynth.wav using sox
sox -b 16 -c 2 -s -r 44100 fluidsynth.raw fluidsynth.wav

You can use this together with the midi export of tuxguitar to export tuxguitar and guitarpro files to wav files.
