AFAIK, Live doesn't store the tempo in exported MIDI files and according to the MIDI standard 120 bpm is assumed by default.
So if you want to play the file on a simple player at 128 bpm, you need to calculate and set "Orig.BPM" before export.
Orig.BPM = (120/128)*120 = 112.5
Thank you so much!!!

Re: drum rack note length vs note trigger?
I'm not familiar with Reason so I'm not sure if you can get it to behave exactly the same. But if you want hits to overlap you need to disable Re-trigger. At the lower right of a Simpler in a Drum Rack cell you will see an "R" in a box. Make sure that is off. (In the color scheme I use, off is grey ...

I'm working around this by creating two tracks so that the notes can overlap but it's very cumbersome

[solved] assign BPM (tempo) to MIDI file for export

drum rack note length vs note trigger?
So I'm trying out Ableton and am coming from Reason.
In Reason's Redrum no matter how long the note length is, the sample fires to it's full length.
If two notes are next to each other and the sample length is longer, then they both play out to their full lengths and the first one bleeds into (over ...
