I'm looking for a FREE (non-trial) MIDI files into music. I'm looking for something similar to PrintMusic's program, as I've been able to clean it up pretty well on my own. Thank you!

Not everything comes free, you know. I know of no free programs that can perform this task. I suggest you find a way to make some money.

You might still able to download NoteWorthy Composer from their website, www.noteworthysoftware.com (http://www.noteworthysoftware.com) . It was the first composition program I ever used, and I must say that its ability to transcribe MIDIs was its saving grace. XD I think they might've changed it to where the trial only works for a month, so you may have to resort to other trial programs, buying it (it's one of the least expensive MIDI programs out there, don't worry), or getting it in full from an illegal crack site (which I neither encourage nor recommend).

Yea, I got NoteWorthy before it did that 30-Day Trial thing.

It's a great program, but I am too cheap to buy it.

Or just download the shite illegaly. Really, money should never ever come between a composer and music.

Or wait, if you're not a composer just scratch the above. Buy the damn thing so the companies can develop better software for us composers to download!

Aha.

Good ol' fuckin' societey. :heh:

I compose, but I generally use NotePad. I have the PrintMusic trial and use that for more advanced stuff and I know there's a glitch where you can save after the trial expires, but I don't know if you can open MIDIs with it.

^As I told you, you can't open MIDIs after the trial... thanks for talking abt the glitch in public :) (I was the one that noticed).....

haha I have 1 that you all obviously don't know of :shifty:

look for a software called melody assistant

i use melody assistant too ... sometimes that thing is really confusing
so i still do my transcrptions the old fashion way :D

instead of downloading warez, why not look for free alternative softwares?
i've been using rosegarden sequencer and lilypond for some time now. i can say that they are far more better than noteworthy composer, and possibly rival Finale. rosegarden can manage midi devices, has 3 types of editors: matrix, notation and event. well for us musicians, we are more interested in notation. that's not all, it has tons of other features.
it can also print files in pdf format. as for lilypond, it's a software that is similar to Finale notepad. everything is free, but there's a catch. as far as i know, it only runs in linux(no windows port :p), and you have to compile yourself.

here's what rosegarden looks like:
