So chatgpt, your new woke overlord, can make MIDI data to represent a melody. I can't seem to figure out how to turn this data into sound. Apparently, Audacity can do this. It will also write programs in Python to accomplish this but I'm not into code and I keep getting syntax errors.

What I would like to do is copy RobotOverlord's MIDI data, and create a file that can be played in Audacity.
Has anyone figured this out yet? Thx

Got it to load but it's still corrupt and doesn't ouput anything (plays a few seconds of empty track).

Use a text editor and change

MThd: to "MThd"

MTrk to "MTrk"

compile the .txt file to a binary with binasc with the following command

binasc midi_data.txt -c midi_data.mid

To install binasc

git clone http://github.com/craigsapp/binasc cd binasc make make install

Mighty kind of you. Will give this a shot.
