Hi there
I am attempting to import a midi file I found online into GarageBand 09 but I get the following pop up

Beta-only warning message - not to be localized:

Tracknumber of CEvLaunch too high!

I'm not really too sure what this means? Does it maybe mean the volume is too high? Or there are too many tracks for Garageband to cope with?

When I click OK a few times on the pop up it then pops up

Launch Event without associated track found!
Changed to track 1.

I then have only 3 tracks for this song when I know there are many more.

I want to be able to hear and use all of the tracks form this midi file in GarageBand 09.

FYI when I play the midi file with Quicktime 7 it sounds fine, with all the tracks being audible.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

I have a way around this message popping up (but would still like to know why this error appears).
I downloaded this free program
Midi File Editor 2.01
Available here
http://mac.softpedia.com/progDownload/Midi-File-Editor-Download-71782.html

Opened the file, and then saved it as a new name.
Imported it to GarageBand and it worked with no errors (although the instruments are way off)
Its a very old feeling program Midi File Editor 2.01, but hey, it worked!

Yay!
