I've been doing this with music by Mmmmmm and Pum for Polished Crystal.

First you'll need an .asm file defining the music. (I can't help you with writing those.) Let's use littleroottown.asm, which defines Music_LittlerootTown.

• Put littleroottown.asm in audio/music.

• Edit audio/music_pointers.asm to append:

dba Music_LittlerootTown

• Edit constants/music_constants.asm to append:

const MUSIC_LITTLEROOT_TOWN

• Edit audio.asm to add in one of the music sections:

INCLUDE "audio/music/littleroottown.asm"

If you get an error like "Unable to load fixed ROMX section into bank $1F", you can start your own section like this:

SECTION "Custom Songs", ROMX
INCLUDE "audio/music/littleroottown.asm"

• Now use it in a map! Edit maps/map_headers.asm and replace one of the MUSIC constants, maybe MUSIC_NEW_BARK_TOWN, with MUSIC_LITTLEROOT_TOWN. It should simply work! (Assuming the music file was written correctly.)

Its pretty easy to do. If you're using Anvil Studio, the only 2 things you need to do are to save all the channels of your MIDI file separately, and to save them as 0-format.

Here you can see it being done in a video
