Seismic station records of M ≥4. 0 earthquakes in the Yunnan Regional Digital Networks in 2000 ~ 2011 were used to determine near earthquake magnitude ML and wave magnitude MS of 433 earthquake waveform data. The speed data were simulated: near earthquake magnitude ML was simulated in terms of short cycle seismographs by DD-1 records,and surface wave magnitude MS in terms of the long cycle seismographs by SK records. All the ML and MS data were then man-checked with linear regression and orthogonal regression and obtain the conversion formula between them. Results showed that the formula MS = 1. 13ML - 1. 08 used since the 1970s may cause problems when applied to the Yunnan region. The adjusted formula of MS = 1. 13ML - 0. 86 is more applicable as the new conversion relationship. Meanwhile,the comparison between the recorded data from Yunnan seismic network and the national seismic network shows the ML difference of - 0. 2 ~ 0. 4 in most of these data with 0. 2 as the majority and MS difference between - 0. 4 ~ 0. 2 with - 0. 2 as the majority.
