I have created a new program to convert Deskmate Music .SNG files
to .HDS text format which can then be played by my Instrument simulator/player (see link below) through your soundcard, using rich grand piano, or 127 other instruments. Hey, I'm a big fan of Tandy's 3-voice sound, but it's no match for today's Soundcard Midi capabilities. You
really should hear these songs after they're converted, including the original classical pieces that were included with Deskmate:

Update 08/19/15: I've released a new version of MidiMapper. Version 6.49 increases the allowable range for the Note Off/Note On delay and adds the option to randomize the delay between notes within the range you select. This can add a more human orgospel feel to the music. Read the help docs for details. Also, some earlier distributions left some instruments out of some songs. These have been fixed. They are: The flute in El Condor Pasa, string ensemble in Moon River, and recorder in Windy.

Is there a new website or download link for MidiMapper and your sng to hds app? Thought I would try wayback machine but they don't have any of your apps backed up. Thanks!
