    You could try that and their forums to see how the re-orchistrate the music.

    I've heard of WAV to MIDI conversion tools, so the easiest approach might be to record the output as a sound file, and then run it through the conversion software.

    Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

    I wish - those are a nightmare unfortunately. They work ok if you have a single instrument (which I think applies here), but they're just crappy glitch-fests. At least the ones I've used. There's got to be a way to do this in Visual Pinball; somehow they are converting those instructions into sounds the computer can create!

    I was thinking that the conversion software might have an easier time with the simpler music of early solid state games.

    I know there's no hope if you're trying to convert a full orchestral piece.
