I have created a new program to convert Deskmate Music .SNG files

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 or gospel 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. Also, I've added a better explanation about how to add cc's to the .hds file to create effects such as reverb, sustain, chorus, volume, pan, balance, etc, and a list of cc's that most soundcards respond to. Also, I've fixed the 'Load and Play Multiple Songs' dialog to play the chosen songs in the same order as they're listed in the 'File Open' dialog, instead of in pseudorandom order as was the case before. Also, I fixed the guitar fretboard mapping. Previously, notes were fretted 1 octave too high. Also, I added a better explanation of the 'Ticks per Quarter note' field in the 'Save to .mid file' dialog.

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!
