I have a MIDI file playing on my DELPHI (TMidiOutputCOmponent)
I want to create a WAV file from it ?

Must I use the Microphone Recorder to achieve this ?
->In this case I will also record external sounds like my tel rings !

Any other clues to do it ?
Thanks a lot !

parse the midi file and generate wave tones from it
can't remember where exactly, but I have seen some delphi tone generators
search for a delphi tone generator

It's very easy. You'll need some recording software, such as Sound Recorder
(limited) or one of the free / low cost audio editors such as Audacity, etc.

Go to your Recording Control (right click Volume Control | Open Volume
Control | Options | Properties | Recording | OK) and select the checkbox to
record from Stereo Mix.

Set Audacity up to record a new file.

Play your MIDI file through Windows Media Player, so you can hear it through
the speakers. You will see Audacity recording it.

When finished, save the file in Audacity as a .wav file. You can trim or
tweak it first, if you wish.

You can use this method to record ANY sound which is playing over your
speakers, including sounds from Web pages, etc. It's a handy way to convert
from a format you can play but not edit, to one you can edit.

Note that the recording goes through the analogue domain (i.e. it is not a
bit-perfect digital-to-digital process) so in theory there may be the usual
D-to-A-to-D degradation.

I know it's a bit late to toss this in, but I thought I might as well.
Some audio cards (most?) also have a recording input direct from the
Midi device. On my card (Audigy 2 ZS) it's labeled just that - "Midi
Synth", and I've seen it on much older cards that I've owned in the
past.
This'll only record from the midi device without any accidental dings or
whatever from other software running at the same time.
