MEGAEnhancer is a software program that converts XG/GM song data (Standard MIDI File) to song data that is specially enhanced to be played back using an instrument or tone generator containing MegaVoices.
MEGAEnhancer automatically makes conventional song files with guitar, bass parts sounds, etc. much more realistic and authentic. The converted song data can be used only on the model which you selected before converting.
