Midi a wav

sosayelbes:
Hi, someone has managed to convert songs created in 3k to wav or mp3 with a real sound.
I have used a few converters but the sound they create leaves a lot to be desired.
Thank you

You need an audio interface and a free DAW like Audacity. I have done this a lot with my PSR 2100. Connect the keyboard to the computer using an audio interface, start Audacity, play your MUDI and record it into Audacity. Save as a vaw file.

You can't 'convert' midi to audio. You have to play it on a MIDI player and record it as a conventional  audio - MP3 or wav. you can do this on a mini studio recorder or as Toril says using a computer recording program like audacity which is free (or at least it used to be free?). The PSR is of course a great midi player, so an easy way is to take the sound output direct from the 3k into the computer to do this.
If recorded as a wav that can then be 'converted' to MP3.
So many people completely misunderstand midi that I think its worth a re-statement of what it is.
MIDI is only a set of complex digital commands, there is no sound. When you feed these commands into a midi player/ device, it then interprets the commands to accurately produce the intended sound on the midi player.
Think of it like this - if I give you a piece of paper with the instruction written on it ' take a hammer and hit it hard on a piece of concrete' - that piece of paper cannot produce sound. But if you follow the instruction and bash a hammer on concrete you will make a distinct sound. You are like the midi player, you have the tools to make the sound and the ability to follow the instruction.
Midi players are of varying quality, because they have to produce the sounds, and the quality comes from the sound engine and the number of voice choices available. Nearly all computers have a built in midi player, but they are usually poor quality, so your midi will not sound great on one. The keyboard is a great midi player because it has such high quality voices and sound generation. And it is exactly the voices the you intended. Most computers are good at digitally recording sound, so the computer recording software works well. But not the midi player.

Just load it in your keyboard, hit play and record what you hear.

The OP has a PSR 3000. No audio recorder if I remember correctly.
