Default Convert audio files

I don't know whether this is an XP question or not

I cannot get a .mid file to play in Firefox. So I thought I should try
another format. Are there any free conversion packages to convert .mid to
something else, e.g. .wav ?

Thanks, Rich
I found a trial program that does what I want - good enough to convert one
35 second file, but that's all I need at the moment.

Strange that there is other free software that converts many other formats,
but not *from* .mid *to* other formats

For what a mid (a musical score sheet) is it is superior to any other file formats it could be converted to. Every version of windows can convert mid to wav.

Thanks, David

Some questions/comments.
1. While .mid may be superior, Firefox does not want to play it, so I needed
a format that it would play and .wav is it (or at least it is one that it
will play
2. How does one use Windows to convert .mid to .wav

Use Sound Recorder and play the mid file.

You are soooooooo stupid.

This is so basic. Perhaps you shouldn't ask any questions here and learn to use your computer instead of abusing this group.

WTF would Sound Recorder play it. It records wave files.

I don't appreciate being told I am so stupid. In fact, I assumed that
respondents to the newsgroup were bascially polite. But then I have read
some of your replies before !

You wrote
Use Sound Recorder and play the mid file.

If this doesn't imply that I should use Sound Recorder to open the .mid
file, I don't know what it does imply.

Please explain what it deos mean.
