MGU files are song files created by Band-in-a-Box, a music accompaniment software. These files store musical arrangements, chord progressions, and instrument data, but do not contain actual audio. MID files, or MIDI files, are a standard format for storing musical performance data, widely used for playback on various digital instruments and software.
