Actually, every MIDI sequencer I've used at a professional level had a
feature to take a MIDI track and get it into a proper tempo. Voyetra called
this the "Tap Tempo" feature, for example.
You played along with the track tapping the tempo on a key on the synth, and
that would determine the tempo of the track. It's useful.

Hi,
What you are trying to do is something which I have read is extremely rare 
to be found in a sequencer. You could try time expand, just do the math to 
get the correct ratio if you know both tempos. If you don't know the actual 
tempo it was recorded, then I'm afraid you'll have to do it through trial 
and error. Since you can't go down to decimals with time expand, you'll have

to get as close as you can with one pass, and just keep time expanding 
things or gliding them when they start to go out of sync. When you see that 
it's starting to go out of sync, you should probably time expand or glide 
from that point to the end of the file, rather than try to handle it a few 
measures at a time, unless it's becoming inconsistent.
HTH.
