Hello,

I have downloaded Far Above The Clouds in Midi format (FarAboveTheClouds.mid), but I am really disappointed of the way the tubular bells sound. The notes are the right one, but it sound as "classic" bells, instead of tubular ones, which are really better.
I think my sound card isn't good enough, although it is quite recent. Do you know if I could do something so as to improve the tubular bells sound (maybe midi drivers exist, or maybe a program can update my sound card...) ?

Thank you very much.

there's no way to make it better much...

you can use soundfonts and so on...
but you better just listen to mp3s unless you have some knowledges of programs like FruityLoops or Reason or anything what can play soundfonts

or you can just check the fan versions of the tracks

or you can buy a hardware midi standard module
