Converting Itunes music files to midi format (playback on yamaha clavinova)

Does anyone know if it's possible to convert MP4 files to midi format? I have a yamaha clavinova digital piano that requires SMF (standard MIDI file) formats 0 and 1 or ESEQ???

I also have some music directly from a CD that I would like to convert as well.

Thanks!

Widisoft makes a VST and Audio Unit plugin (their AU plugin would work with GarageBand) that will convert MP3 files, so you could convert your MP4 tracks to MP3 and use their converter. How well it works I can't say, but it looks like you can download it and give it a try before you purchase.

I just tried installing Widisoft and it didn't work. I can get the mp4 files into mp3, OGG and wav, but I can't get them to midi. Is there anyway to convert an mp4, m4a, aif, mp3, OGG or wav file to a midi? Please respond ASAP. Thanks.
