<para>How do I create audio CDs from my MIDI files?</para>
</question>
<answer>
<para>To create audio CDs from MIDI files, first install
<package>audio/timidity++</package> from ports then
install manually the GUS patches set by Eric A. Welsh,
available at <uri
xlink:href="http://alleg.sourceforge.net/digmid.html">http://alleg.sourceforge.net/digmid.html</uri>.
After <application>TiMidity++</application> has been
installed properly, MIDI files may be converted to WAV
files with the following command line:</para>
<screen>&prompt.user; <userinput>timidity -Ow -s 44100 -o /tmp/juke/01.wav 01.mid</userinput></screen>
<para>The WAV files can then be converted to other formats
or burned onto audio CDs, as described in the <link
xlink:href="&url.books.handbook;/creating-cds.html">&os;
Handbook</link>.</para>
