Is there a way to make MIDIs loop the same way the XMs, MODs, S3Ms, and ITs loop? Hopefully there is, but if not, thanks for helping anyways.

Check some tutorials for RPG Maker on this subject, there should be some program that tweaks your MIDIs to do that.

Hmm... I can tell you, seeing as I'm a composer myself. Note: You aren't going to get a 'true' loop, just one that doesn't happen as often. What you need to do, is get any MIDI editing program (I use Cakewalk Pro Audio 9, but that's commercial software.) Then, select the whole MIDI, and C&P it once or twice. Make it 5-10 minutes long. The music sounds smoother, but the filesizes will be much larger.

Maybe you'd get better results if you experimented with the DMC/DMC2 object? *has no idea*

DMC2 won't play MIDIs... unless they're a Stream(MP3), Module(XM, IT, MOD), or Sample(WAV).

anvil studio, go to google.com, and search for it, it's free, you can easily edit or delete parts of midis!

That might do, but how much larger?

I'd guess it adds a few kilobytes each time you do it.

That's fine with me. I'ma look for that website, then write it down for future reference.
