Im getting tired of asking for requests from other players for Music. I would like to make my own music but my skill isnt good. I need a Teacher. Can choose a song I need and work on it together so I know how to do it.

I would suggest downloading a program such as Fl-Studio. Then go online and find a midi for a song you wish to make(assuming their is one) and open it in Fl-Studio. Fl-Studio is a midi editor and you will be able to see all the different tracks the midi file has. Each one corresponds to a different instrument. Depending on the midi they may be named according to their instrument or they may just be track#1, #2 etc. Translate the notes you see in Fl-Studio into LBP and you should be set. http://flstudio.image-line.com/documents/download.html

In case you are on a Mac, Garageband can import a midi file and show the notes on a sequencer sheet, very similar to how LBP2 displays a music sequencer.

Music is a pretty tough thing to teach.... especially over the internetz in a game. What elements of creating music are you having trouble with? Are you trying to create original music or "cover" songs? There's a huge difference in how one might go about these two types of song creation.

Midi is a music file.

Midi is basically a digital form of sheet music.

Took me little while to find it out but im having trouble finding a Converter MP3 into Midi program online. Anyone know any? Id like t take my MP3 songs and convert them into Midi format and use the Fl-studios to read it. I totally dont understand how to use Fl-studios... XD

Midi stands for "Musical Instrument Digital Interface". A midi file contains data instructing the instrument source (a sampler or synthesizer) when to outputs its sample start/oscillator gates 'high'. This is also usually always accompanied with a 'velocity' instruction which indicates the amount of DC current to run through the gate, controlling amplitude output. All of today's DAWs (digital audio workstations, FL studio is one of them) Provide this functionality. How to actually make music on the other hand is an entirely different story and certainly not something you can accomplish over night. Many people spend years perfecting their art to a degree one would class 'listenable', let alone enjoyable. If you really do want to get into music production I would advise getting a few books on composition/musical theory/sound engineering. Wiki-pedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_theory) is a good place to start. This (http://ravenspiral.com/ravenspiralguide.pdf) is also an amazing starting point for would be producers. Good luck Took me little while to find it out but im having trouble finding a Converter MP3 into Midi program online. Anyone know any? Id like t take my MP3 songs and convert them into Midi format and use the Fl-studios to read it. I totally dont understand how to use Fl-studios... XD Thats because a MIDI file contains fundamentally different data than an MP3 file. An MP3 file is essentially audio data that has been compressed into a static data source for programs/hardware capable of reading that data set to read from. A Midi file contains completely different data intended to instruct components within an entirely different software application. MP3 holds the same basic data set as WAV (http://www.sonicspot.com/guide/wavefiles.html) files but in a compressed format. After audio samples/midi data are edited in a workstation and exported the output is compressed into a single file. But before that, there is a specific system based on bit depth and sample rate that converts DC current (sound oscillations) into digital reference points (analogue to digital conversion) the original waveforms are then digitally represented within the DAW, the nature of this conversion creates digital 'bit' references fundamentally tied to the specific encoding process involved there-in. Midi (http://midi.mathewvp.com/aboutMidi.htm) data on the other hand, although used in the same workstations is a different type of data set all together, used to instruct sound sources when to be on or off. It does not hold any referencing that would work on instructing the platform on how to construct any waveforms. So you simply can't convert Wav/MP3 to midi, You can convert Midi to wav (providing you have a sound source being instructed by the midi data and a platform capable of recording the output in 'wave' (WAV) format), but its a one way journey.

As far as I know, MP3 cannot be converted into MIDI unless done manually. You can try to find a MIDI version of the MP3 you have, that's the only way I know of.

Mp3 to midi is generally not possible, but if you have a really simple mp3 which you want to convert to midi you could try using melodyne. Open your mp3 then Save it as a .mid(keep in mind the notes will not likely be synced to the beat). http://www.celemony.com/cms/ You could also try Anvil studio if fl-studio is too complicated. http://www.anvilstudio.com/
