SolMiRe - MIDI to MP3 Online Converter

SolMiRe - MIDI to MP3 Online Converter was a free to use online midi file converter that houses 24 Soundfonts that anyone used to convert any midi file to a HD mp3.

It was online from 2008 until 2021, and counted up how many midis people have been converting using their website.website.

Using the Online Converter
Any midi file would be put through the converter by clicking on "Choose file". However, a midi file could be dragged on to the "No file chosen" to choose a midi file too.

Sadly, .rmi midi files couldn't be converted; in order to convert a .rmi file, a midi editing tool, such as Anvil Studio would be used to save the .rmi as a .mid file instead.

Choosing a soundfont effected how the converted midi file would sound; the default soundfont is SGM V2.01, but that could be changed to a different one listed on the website. However, some soundfonts, such as the Super Mario 64 soundfont were out of tune, and Final Fantasy 7 would make unsupported instruments silent.

The midi file tempo and tonality would be changed too, but this was best left alone. The quality could also be altered. By default, the midi file would be converted in Stereo and in 128 Kbps. It could be increased to 320Kbps, or compressed to 64Kbps.

Effects were added to a midi file. These were: A genre tag could be added. However, this was only useful if you've ticked the "Add to Midi Database" below.
 * Reverb - Makes the mp3 midi file echo, as though it is being played in a Cathedral
 * Chrous - Distorts the mp3 midi
 * Echo - Adds an echo
 * Reverse - Converts the midi, and then reverses the mp3

Next, you would choose between either having 30 seconds of a midi file, or the whole midi file. By default, 30 seconds was selected. Also, any midi file that was shorter than 30 seconds would end up being converted as silence.

The box next to "Add to Midi Database" would be already ticked. This sent the midi file's metadata to SolMiRe. If you chose to keep it ticked, you would read the website's Terms of Service first. If you were unsure, it would best to untick this box before converting a midi file.

Clicking on the "Upload and Convert!" button started the conversion. Higher quality, full length midi files took longer to convert. Once converted, the mp3 file would appear at the top of the website.

It can be downloaded by clicking on "Download Your Mp3". After an hour has passed, SoMiRe deleted the converted file from their website.
