Extract text from Capo projects (CAPOBUNDLE)
To convert CAPOBUNDLE projects to another format, you need Capo or other Audio software.
To convert other file formats to the "Capo Project Bundle" file type, you need software like Capo or a similar tool.
A .capobundle file is a project package created by Capo, a music learning and analysis application developed by SuperMegaUltraGroovy. It stores metadata such as automatically detected chords, custom beat grids, loop regions, and playback settings generated from an imported audio track.
Users primarily open and edit these files using the Capo app on macOS or iOS. The main disadvantage of the .capobundle format is its proprietary, platform-restricted nature. It is completely incompatible with Windows or Linux devices. Furthermore, because it is structurally a macOS "bundle" (a directory disguised as a single file), it often causes transfer issues. If you upload or email a .capobundle via a non-Apple system without compressing it first, the file system will break it apart into a standard folder, corrupting the project.
Musicians usually need to convert this proprietary data into universal formats. Common target formats include MIDI for importing chord progressions into a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), or PDF and TXT for printable chord charts.
Because this is a closed, proprietary project package, standard online audio converters cannot process it. The format relies on the original software to properly read the internal databases and export the data. If our analysis detects standard readable text (like an internal PLIST file) or embedded audio assets inside the bundle, viewing or extraction may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your CAPOBUNDLE file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert CAPOBUNDLE file to MP3, WAV, AAC, FLAC, OGG, WMA, M4A, AIFF, OPUS, ALAC, APE or WV, you can use Capo or similar software from the "Music Analysis Project Package" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert MIDI, AAC, TTA, AU, WV, DTS, MID, FLAC, RA, MP3, PCM or WAV files to CAPOBUNDLE, try Capo or another comparable tool in the "Music Analysis Project Package" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our CAPOBUNDLE converter.
