.mid

[BarryS]

Hello,
I have a .mid file.
According to the manual, I just need to drag-n-drop it into Ableton Live. [I'm using 9]
But it won't... I just get the "you-may-not-do-that" cursor symbol (on a MIDI track).
Does anyone have any guidance, please?
Thanks.

Probably your file has a special format that Live doesn't understand,
in particular Type 0, single track but multiple channels.
If so, it must be converted before to Type 1.
Most DAWs can do that, or Google "midi file converter".
