You know you get those PC music files which are labelled .mid and even Win7 plays them yes?
Actually MIDI is a cross platform standard. Not only PCs know how to handle them but all major OSs even a C64 has some MIDI-Software. The basic format of MIDI is dead simple. You could write a Midi generator in 40 lines of C.
Is there a program on Amiga that plays these files too? Google search is not helping at all for me, and as the only decent Outrun tunes that sound anything like the arcade are in .MID format this got me thinking.
Just look on Aminet or OS4depot instead of Google.
And if someone has transferred the general midi samples used for these files to an Amiga 8bit friendly format for the player, naturally, is there any way to convert .MID to .MOD files too?
TIA 
ptmid for OS4 does this, but mind that midi doesn´t tell anything about the actual sound there is just "This note has to be played on a Piano .. Fortissimo with a bit of Reverb" and the tone generator looks for an adequate sample or preset to play it with. External tone generators were widely used in the 80s. So you can e.g. pipe the midi out your serial port to control YAMAHA keyboards.
