Flash can only handle “real” sound files. Midi is a format that stores the music as a kind of “musical notes”. Therefore if you have a pure midi file, it will sound according to the machine where they will be played. I would suggest to load the midi file into an application where you can play it and convert it to a wav-file. You can try Anvil Studio. It is free, can read Mid-Files and you can create a sound track from the midi file that can be saved as WAV. [http://www.anvilstudio.com](http://www.anvilstudio.com) hope that helps ---
