Several messages were posted on comp.music for the anonymous ftp sites for midi
files, recently.
When I downloaded some of the .mid files by binary mode
from site (for example, ucsd.edu /midi/scores/DMCS) to unix machines and
move to MacIIsi, they are of the file type of document and my sequencer prgm
Trax cannot recognize them. I changed the creator and type of the file with
ResEdit and Trax recognize them when I tried to import them into Trax, but
does not import at all.
I think .mid files are midi files for ibm-type machine and may not be used for
mac. 

Does anyone know about the public domain shareware/freeware to convert .mid
files to midi files for mac?  Many thanks inadvance.
