How do I convert a .WAV file into an RMF file?

See Basic Operation: Converting a Sample File to RMF.

How do I convert a MIDI file into an RMF file?

See Basic Operation: Converting a MIDI File to RMF.

What file formats does the Beatnik Editor import?

MIDI, WAV, AIFF, Sound Designer II, AU, and MP3 files. You can also import RMF files into a Session, but you can't include them in RMF files you export.

What copyright protection does RMF offer?

You can encode 40-bit encrypted copyright and licensing information into a file, and it can be easily displayed anywhere an RMF file plays. It will help a publisher or composer keep track of who is using their music.

Will the Beatnik Editor support DLS (the MIDI Manufacturers Association standard for downloadable samples)?

Beatnik intends to provide support for the DLS standard in a future version of the Beatnik Editor. As new file types become popular, we'll add support for them.
