No, converting MID to WAV does not cause additional quality loss — WAV uses lossless compression. However, any artifacts already present in the original MID file will persist in the WAV output.
WAV files are typically 2-5x larger than equivalent MID files because WAV preserves all pixel data. This is expected and necessary for lossless quality.
