Need one, badly.
Something that's simple to use, and does everything for me ;)

There's only two english ones, both translated from the japanese version. It's pretty simple. You open the NSF and scroll through the tracks until you find the one you want. Let it play for a bit then Log it to MIDI file.
Sounds simple to me. | |
Then crop it out with a midi editor, like Anvil Studio.
Assuming it'll even load the midi. Something about the convertor leaves them corrupted sometimes, I've noticed, and it makes Anvil hang up when trying to open it. | |

The newest versions of Anvil Studio convert MIDIs from Format 0 to Format 1 before displaying them. NSF2MIDI conversions are in Format 0, and since they're at a BPM of 80, the notes are all mashed together on the screen making Anvil take time to load. This is another reason why I tend to use 2005 versions of anvil Studio, or WinJammer Pro 5. Also, NSF2MIDI conversions sound pretty bad, it'd be better to use the conversion to hand sequence a more stable version. | |
It's not that it takes time to load for me. It's that Anvil Studio appears to go into an infinite loop when trying to load even the smallest of files if I happen to convert the "wrong" song. The progress bar hops between the same exact two points and never gets anywhere. I've tried leaving the computer on overnight before and I'd still see no end to it. Since it eats up all of my system resources, I end up having to End Task it. :(

Odd. It shouldn't do that with the NSF conversions. It does that with the SPC conversions though. They're unrepairable in pretty much all MIDI Sequencers...well, except GNMIDI. All the NSF2MIDI conversions work for me though. =x
