I hope this is the right place to ask this.
Is it possible to save Real Audio files to listen to them without being • online?
If so how?
Thanks

Yeah, just click on the link (if it's on a web page) and choose "Save File • As".
If it's not on a web page, a.k.a you're selecting it from the Real Audio
program's menu or directory, you could find the web page where it's located or
set up the Windows audio recorder and save it as a *.wav file as the you're
listening to the Real Audio file.  Depending on how good you're connection
with the server is, this might not be the option for you because the audio
might be broken in places.  Of course, you could edit the *.wav file later and
hope the breaks aren't noticable.  Either way, the files are rather large, so
I hope you've got the hard disk space.

The file that I want to save is at this page, and it has its own Real Player
box on the page.

If I try to use the windows recording program I get a message saying that
another program is recording. I haven't a cle what the address for the file is.
I hope this will help you help me.

Also does anyone know of a freeware program that will convert wavs or other
sound files to midis. That would also be appreciated(midis seem to have a
smaller file size then wavs).

Thanks
Ryan

Ryan, MIDI files are not like audio files; they are a list of instructions that tell which instrument (from a known list) to play, how long and how loud each note is, etc). There's no automated way to convert recorded audio to MIDI. There ARE many (...) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
