Hi I've found that website on a previous post with loads of midi files on for pretty much every song. But once I've got the files saved, how can I open the on a program such as reason? I'm looking to do some unofficial remixes of some songs just for my self to see how well I can schieve this. Can anyone help me please I'm desperate for this piece of info!!!!!!!
Thanks :gsmile:

Open Reason

File >>> Import midi - find the midi on your computer and press open.

Simple as that - hope thats good enough

You could always try the import MIDI file function. ;)

Ah thanks guys u are stars!!!!!

So do the midi files play through any virtual instrument on the rack, or just play the exact sound that is on the midi file?

Midi files don't contain actual sounds.
And no, Reason won't load any devices for the midi tracks.

So say If I've got a midi file of marcos cosmicstrings, and I load it into reason, what do I have to do to make it play the actuall sound on the song?

If I load midi files into reason, is it just a series of key notes loaded into the note part of the sequencer on a track?
