put all files (except your midi) at same location as the jar file.
Updated: Jan 21, 2019

Source code and Automap-chan download
https://github.com/dudehacker/Automap-chan


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to use:
Step 0: Find a midi of song you like

What is Midi?
In simple terms, Midi is a digital music sheet, computer reads it then plays it accordingly using available instruments. Midi does not contain human voice.
You can't convert mp3 into midi.

Step 1: Choose a midi and convert + export sounds
Detailed Guide for how to use Automap-Chan
The first window you see when you open Automap-Chan is to pick a midi you want to convert to osu beatmap.


Next window is convert options.

1: List of tracks in your midi file, each track represents 1 instrument.
You can select a track, it becomes highlighted like track 2 in the picture.
Once a track is selected, you may change its instrument or volume using the buttons in area 8 or use playback control buttons in area 7
2: List of tracks that you want to set as Storyboard in your map , use buttons from area 4 to bring import tracks from area 1.
3: List of tracks that you want to play in your beatmap, use buttons from area 5 to bring import tracks from area 1.

If a track is not in area 2 or area 3 then it wont show up in the beatmap.
6: Empty area 2 and area 3
9: Difficulty = 1 means a lot of notes that comes from tracks in area 3 will be send to Storyboard to reduce difficulty.
Max Chord = the maximum size of chord allowed in your beatmap.
For example, this is a chord of size 4


Keyset = how many keys is your beatmap? usually 4 or 7
If you check the "Co-op" box then the Keyset is doubled, you can go from 1 to 18 keys

10: Extract hitsound, if you are converting the same midi for a second time with same options and you already extracted the hitsound, then you may uncheck it.
Custom hitsound = checked , use grand piano hitsound made by LordRaika instead of making Automap-chan create hitsounds.
The hitsounds used are located in Grand Piano folder, you may replace them with your own hitsound if desired. you will need to update the file names in convert.csv if different from default names.
Pro: Save a lot of time. Less files.
Con: Bigger size per file, only piano available as instrument choice, less pitch and duration variety for each note
Recommended use only when piano is the only instrument in your midi, and your song does not have a lot of sound variety.

Merge notes faster than 1/4: create less files by merging the different duration of same pitch into a 1/4 duration note if the duration is shorter than 1/4.
Example, if your note is duration of 1/8 or 1/16 it will become 1/4 with this option checked, a 1/2 note will stay as 1/2.
11: Create your beatmap!

Step 2: Create a folder in osu/songs
Step 3: Once the program finish running, drag the output (hitsounds + .osu file) into the folder created in step 2
Step 4: Edit the metadata and/or add picture
Step 5: play
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hit Sound Limitations
1. Volume
use audacity to change all the hitsound files volume:
http://theaudacitytopodcast.com/tap095-how-to-use-chains-in-audacity-to-save-time/

2. File Size
To further compress hitsound file size, use a program like WinLame to convert wav files to ogg, then rename them all into wav. Currently secretly supported by osu.
To rename file on windows:
1. Open cmd
2. navigate to folder containing all hitsound file with "cd" command
3. use the following command: "ren *.ogg *.wav"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update (July 30, 2016)
Made a new tool that convert all LN in a map into short notes. It will be same start time, same column, same volume for hit sound.
I shall call it Rice Cooker

aaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha i'm here to laugh at your ignorance, you made me log in for this ahahahahahaha

it does but you're limited to playing as many simultaneous sounds on a single row as lanes you have, so if you have, like, a 4k chart, stepmania won't be able to play more than 4 new sounds at any given row. and that's not only a format limitation - it's a stepmania limitation.

consider yourself informed.

Oops they are actually called module files, trackers are what they are made with. The best way I can describe them is that they are like midi files that also contain samples for the sounds to be played in a 8bit or 16bit format. Most chiptune music is made with tracker software which saves in one or more of those formats.

You can read more about them here

Ok i understand the file format now, but my question is do you have a source where you can get plenty of anime/VN/vocaloid/touhou music in mod format?
I think midi is more popular format, so I dont see the need to make a new program for MOD files. If you do have a good source where I can find songs i cant find in midi then I will consider making it for MOD files as well, also depends on how complicated the format is, i havent done a full research on it yet.
abraker
Why just anime/VN/vocaloid/touhou music? LR2 or stepmania have some good stuff without them and chiptune or game music can be used some really good maps at a higher difficulty. There is a whole database right here.
PyaKura
Wow really cool stuff right there.

This could open up a whole new way of dealing with/creating new keysounded maps. Hope to see more as there are great pieces I have in mind which I'd like to map but eh

Made some maps with this software. This is fun.

Kuchizuke Diamond filesize: 552KB Difficulty: 3.7*

Extra Magic Hour filesize: 4.4MB Difficulty: 4.6*

SPOILER
hey this software is great. any chance you'll make it output notes sorted by pitch in 7K instead of randomly?

just do a per-chord pitch sorting while doing a minimal amount of taking hands into account

lets say the input midi file has this:


going from top to bottom, right hand here has 4 notes and left hand has 2 notes
right hand plays A,F,C,A
left hand plays F,F

so the output note placement should be:



the general way your algorithm should work is like this:


i.e. every time there's a chord:
step 1: make a list of all right hand notes, sorted by pitch
step 2: make a list of all left hand notes, sorted by pitch
step 3: place all the right hand notes going from right to left going from highest pitch to lowest
step 4: place all the left hand notes going from left to right going from lowest pitch to highest

this algorithm should be super simple to implement and it would place all chords in a way that is both pitch-relevant and hands-accurate.

as for pitch differences between different chords/notes on different timings, only leave one condition where if the music repeats the map also repeats but if the music doesn't repeat then the map also doesn't repeat, no need to take pitch-relevancy into account between different timed notes because there simply isn't enough columns in the game to do this perfectly and writing an algorithm that gives a semi-perfect solution would be way too complicated.

for example if the midi goes like this (looking at right hand only):


first five notes repeat, then it starts changing. the 6th and 8th note are the same one in the music, but it doesn't have to be the same one in the output note placement, because that would overly complicate the algorithm. it's enough that in the output the first 5 notes would be all on the same column while the following ones be on different ones, for example:



this would be a theoretically "perfect" transcription but the algorithm for this would be rather complicated to take higher density stuff into account. whereas a simple solution could give something like:



which is fine too really

the only "problem" can arise around the purple area of columns 3,4,5 which can either belong to right hand or left hand depending on the density in the music. the simplest solution to this would just be to just ditch previous note relevancy and just place notes in remaining room when you run out of columns, prioritizing placing right hand notes in the rightmost available columns, and left hand notes in the leftmost available columns.

algorithm-wise this should be very simple to write, just one loop with a few conditionals on numbers. Any chance for this to happen? If you make this it would mean the outputs of your program would already be pretty much playable chart files with almost no requirement to "fix the notes" from a mapper.

Okay i investigated the format, and its possible to have a convert for this. However i need do some heavy change in my code for this to happen, since everything was made assuming max is 9 key. It might take me a while to make it because i have other more general things to improve on first, such as selective note input for multiple tracks and more hitsound quality vs size options. Since 18k is assumed to be played by 2 players with 9k each, the pattern algorithm also need reworked to reflect this change.
Bobbias
For changes like this, I would suggest you consider putting your code up on github so other people can do more than just suggest changes. For example, I might be able to make the necessary changes to allow for up to 18k and submit a pull request with the changes.

but my structure is super messy too ashamed to put it on github, maybe after i clean it up. Also need look up how to use github properly.
But the biggest reason is aqo is the one who made pattern algorithm and he doesn't want it to be known to people. I can send you a copy of source code if you get his permission.
Aqo
it's not that I don't want it to be known to people I just feel that mappers would fall into despair if they knew how simple it is
Bobbias
LOL. I havent checked the converter out properly yet (that is, I havent actually tried anything it's created yet), but I honestly don't think releasing the note generation algorithm is going to affect anyone. Most mappers are too disconnected from the community to even check something like this out.
ArcherLove
bobby pls...............
Bobbias
Consider that there are a LOT of people who have made maps. when I say mappers, I mean anyone who has made a beatmap. Many mappers never check the forums at all, and of those who do I'd bet not every one of them will have seen this thread, so my point stands.

in fact picking out sounds from an mp3 takes a lot of time when mapping, which this converter skips that completely by using midi.

and mp3 to midi is very difficult for computers

Indeed i looked up mp3 instrument/vocal recognition researches, it is too complicated for me to understand how. But i believe in a few years people will release free library that could achieve this. It will make mapping a lot easier.

Bug Fix
1. Fixed window freezing when converting. Progress bar now update properly as the hitsounds are being extracted.
2. Fixed labels for difficulty, key set and max chord not showing when window is first initialized.
3. Completely removed LN from converter, as I haven't made an Overlap Prevention algorithm for LN yet.

New features
1. Now support midi file with 16 instruments in a single track.
2. Added drum kits from Roland GS

I will upload new converts to an osu beatmap hosting site. It seems to have unlimited upload and also looks better than a simple file hosting site like puush.
You can get latest maps here:
http://osump.net/user/dudehacker
I will also add 4K to every new convert from now on
Applequestria
I found some of your Automap-chan maps on osu!mp. Totally blown away by the quality of the autoconverts (for 7K anyway, LN suck), good job!

I'll give the .jar converter now :)

Edit: Tried to use the convert some .midi but no files are exported? The .jar file just stops for a second then closes ._.

Very nice, i shall try this later, BTW osu!mp is a great site to upload maps compared to dropbox
Full Tablet
The application crashes (closes itself without any error message) after opening the MID file if "keyCount" in config.properties is bigger than "maxChord" (It is possible to have set the maxCord value higher than the keycount by using the program normally, for example, setting the maxChord to 6 while converting a 5k+Coop=10k map).

Related to the previous issue, in the settings window, you can't set the maxChord variable higher than the keyCount set when the window was created.
