Take note especially that you will have to insert the file again.

.MID files do not get embedded into PowerPoint presentations, the are linked
and must travel with the presentation. Make sure that you put the .MID files
into the same folder as the presentation before you insert them that will
ensure that the links do not break when you email your presentation.

Another option is to convert your .MID files to .WAV files, then insert the
.WAV files into your presentation. They will automatically be inserted
unless they exceed what ever you have set in Tools, Options, General, then
they will also be linked.
