File Extension | GTP |
Full Name | Guitar Pro Project |
The GTP extension is given to files related to the music and tab notation software called Guitar Pro. GTP files are used to save projects created in the program. They may contain tablature for solo and / or bass guitar. Tablature is an alternative and simplified notation to the traditional notation on a stave.
File format conversion is the process of transforming a file from one format (referred to as "GP") to another (referred to as "GTP"). This may be necessary for various reasons. For example, GP file may be incompatible with the software or device we want to use to open or edit it. In such cases, converting the file from format GP to format GTP becomes essential.
So, how can we perform GP to GTP file conversion? Fortunately, there are many tools and computer programs available that enable file format conversion. These tools work by reading the data from the file in format GP and transforming it into format GTP. This allows the preservation of the original information contained in the file, even after changing its format. Below you will find a list of GP to GTP converters.
If you have already downloaded one of the converters and installed it on your computer, you can proceed to the appropriate conversion process of GP to GTP. Handling all the programs is usually very intuitive and is based on the same pattern of conduct. We will briefly discuss a few steps that you always need to go through while changing the format of the GP file:
File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.
