I guess I don't know what "GG midi files" could possibly be?  Midi
technology is not 'up' to capturing a GG performance if that's what you
mean.  I think you would be very disappointed.

I transcribe a great deal of music from the WWW into readable scores, but I
only hope to get an approximation of the original score, certainly not a
great performance!  Maybe someday!!

I don't begrudge you for being idealistic, Anne
