I doubt you'll be able to find one - I don't think it's possible to recreate the beeps in a MIDI file, for a start.

Yes.
Can somebody explain MIDI to me? Google searching is confusing me.
If I were to open that MIDI file in some music software (say Garageband or a Windows equivalent), will the file separate into the different tracks, such as the strings on one track and the beeps on another?

However those tracks can only be edited with a MIDI-compliant device, usually a keyboard. Plus the tracks only exist as digital data, not as a waveform or an analogue sound.

I'd forgotten about the synth noises available in MIDI, although whoever made this file decided against a drum beat - which makes it seem odd. (EDIT: After further inspection, it's there, but it really quiet)
Yes.

What are you on about? You would need software that can handle MIDI files such as Garageband or Cubase to edit the files, but you can do all that perfectly well with a mouse.
If you put it into Cubase (I've never used Garageband), you can easily change the instruments (and create a drum beat) to ones more similar to the real thing, and make a wonderfully synthesised MP3.

Garageband can import MIDI files, and it does separate into tracks, but you cannot export. I think Logic can export midi. Bilky is also right that a MIDI Keyboard/device is not essential.
