Band in a box notation to Sibelus using midi

My question when importing a midi file from the Internet or importing a midi file from Band In a Box the musical score looks so complicated for the saxophone player with just too much information.
Many thanks to Oliver Elsholtz a simple solution when you open a midi file in Sibelius.

At the top of the page are two tabs MIDI FILE or NOTATION. Select Notation
Change adjust rhythms minimum duration to a QUAVER; in the six TUPLET boxes select none.

Oliver a saxophone teacher from Manchester offers saxophone lessons and has extensive knowledge of using the computer program Sibelius.
Sibelius is a scorewriter program and allows editing and printing scores, Sibelius can also play music back using high-quality sounds.
The free demo version can be downloaded and is fully useable but remember with the free version you cannot save any options. The printer will only print one page.
