The attached file is a Bach fugue midi I found

When I import it into nted it shows alright (ignoring sharp flat mixups)
When I import it into musescore the entire bass is replicated into the
treble clef.
Asking on the musescore lists I get that the problem is with the midi
file

I am recommended to use sequencing software to cleanup before importing.
What such software should I try to use?

There is only one problem here: "midi I found somewhere on the net."
The solution is: Don't convert midi to notation, it makes no sense and is
futile.
What you got here is
Bach, Das Wohltemperierte Clavier I, Fuga IV (BWV 849)
Visit
http://www.mutopiaproject.org/cgibin/piece-info.cgi?id=596 and you
get the notation as PDF, the lilypond source file, a midi and more
information.
Hi Nils
Yes I am aware that midi is a lower level information than score.
I did not make it very clear in my question earlier (sorry about that) that
this particular piece
-- bach C# minor fugue --
is not specifically important to me as working out a workflow which allows
lifting a given midi to a higher score level. Nted does a decent job of
this. Musescore less so. Just searching for the best tool.
Earlier I used nted exclusively. Since now I have a bunch of non-musician
non-linux users getting interested I need something cross platform -- hence
musescore.
Currently my modus operandi (when starting with a midi file):
Read into nted.
Export midi staff by staff separately.
Read each of those midis separately into musescore
Paste together.
And so I am just looking for some better tools...
