Convert from GuitarPro to GarageBand

Hello,


I've searched without success, was hoping to someone here has conquored this....


There are good number of site where you can download Guitar Pro files for free or very small cost. Is there an ability to convert those Guitar Pro files to GarageBand?

In Guitar Pro 6 you have the ability to export MIDI files. With a GP6 file loaded, export it as MIDI. Then simply drag it into a new open GarageBand project. Done.


You will have to fiddle with things like time sig etc, but everything should be in tact with the properly assign software instruments.


Cheers

Thanks for taking the time to reply. My apologies, I should have been clearer... I realize that GuitarPro can export in midi format (and from midi to GarageBand import). I was trying to avoid the $59.99 investment just to use the software as a way to convert files.


Do you know of any software conversion products that bridge the gap for a lesser investment?


Thanks again.
