If you've read Dave Tribby's c.b.a2 posts, he converted quit a few MIDI
files to synthLab sequences with a program he wrote called MIDI Surgeon.

Apparently it's working well.  It will be published in an early 1994 (was
it Jan/Feb?) GS+ issue.  You can talk to gsplusdiz@aol.com for more info.

And it works.  It's a welcome addition for //gs musicians.  Remember it's
shareware though!
