VLC will play midis, but sadly, not in quicklook. The problem you're describing is one of the main reasons I'm still using snow leopard. I know it's petty, but I enjoy my midi files, and under lion... Well, You know. (smile) Maybe if a few more people complain, they'll actually fix it. Every time there is an update for lion, I hope that maybe it will have been fixed, but so far, no such luck. I still haven't figured out how or why Apple broke them under Lion, but they broke them very badly. As for vlc, you just need to download a sound font and then go into vlc configuration. It's far from ideal but it's a work-around if you're otherwise happy using lion. Good luck, and I hope this helps. Missy

Is there a way to turn up the volume of these sounds and remove the dynamics processing? The version of Quicktime that came preinstalled with Lion won't play MIDI files, and VLC won't either.
