Guitar Recording...

Hey, I want to make a good MP3 for guitar. What I want to ask is, does anyone knows how to make a good MP3 from MIDI. I hear a lot of good recording (usually from OST) and I do know it's from the MIDI but the sound is really REAL and GOOD...
Especially because, almost all my recording isn't good enough...

There are a few posts on similar topics in this forum. You probably need a sequencer program. To get good sounds from a sequencer, it helps to have some decent midi plug-ins (VSTs), which are usually either synthesizers or samplers. The better ones cost money, but can have thousands of instruments or samples. But there are a ton of freebies availalbe too.

Some good free sequencers are Reaper and Audacity (google em). Try them out and see if they are adequate. If you need more features, then maybe a commercial one like Sonar, Cubase, Protools, or Fruity Loops.

kvraudio.com has a database of free AND commercial VST plugins.

Well, I do have Fruity Loops, and I've tried using soundfont too. But the problem is how to make the real feeling and sound for a particular song? How can I use thsi sequencer???

What style of music are you trying to create?
And do you want to use midi or real audio recordings? Or a mix of both?What sort of instruments or sounds do you want to use?

Let see... For a beginning, I want to make classical/acoustic solo guitar.
And I prefer to uses MIDI...

Use Guitar Pro, it is a guitar synthesising program that runs on MIDI and includes a high quality sample library. It is tailored for guitars and so allows many more guitar based techniques to be used. It has a .wav export which can then be converted to MP3.

Hmm, I've tried Guitar-Pro before, but still I can't get the feeling (the feeling you get if you use the real guitar). For example, there're same note in every string (C, for example). But C in 2nd string and 3rd string are different (the tone, timbre, the feel), so what I must if I want to use C in 2nd string? Do I need to make my own samples? Or any special program/ equipment?

EDIT: You can hear the song from a lot of OST for game & anime that are acoustic version/ guitar version, example Eyes On Me (Acoustic Version) from Final Fantasy Potion 2 - Relaxin' with Final Fantasy...

If you want really realistic guitar sounds you might need to by a guitar sampler plug-in such as Real Guitar. And then use it in Fruity Loops or another sequencer.

get a guitar and a full tube half stack.

midi guitars don't cut it, period.

I DO try to use the real guitar, but my problem is always the buzz noise. It still there even when I use Audacity to remove it... I hear a lot of OST that use solo guitar & I think it sounds good...
