1. Open this file .

Result: Various issues.

1. Tempo Text is 120 (should be 101).
2. Capo isn't acknowledged.
3. Drums are wrong.
4. Chord names aren't imported.
5. Tambourine sounds piano (Guitar Pro app sounds bass drum) - its part sounds guitar.
6. 'Organ' part sounds guitar.
7. Vibraslap sounds piano (Guitar Pro app sounds bass drum?).
8. Some text isn't imported (e.g. Verse 1).

Note: Checked using Guitar Pro Lite 6.1.6 and Guitar Pro for iOS 1.6.4.

Using MuseScore 2.0 Nightly Build (b549f6f) - Mac 10.7.5.

1. Tempo Text is 120 (should be 101).
Fixed
2. Capo isn't acknowledged.
See #70101: [GP] A file containing a part with a Capo indication is not played properly.
3. Drums are wrong.
Fixed
4. Chord names aren't imported.
Fixed
5. Tambourine sounds piano (Guitar Pro app sounds bass drum) - its part sounds guitar.
They now sound drum like but they need better mapping. See #98786: [GP6] better mapping between GP instruments and MuseScore instruments
6. 'Organ' part sounds guitar.
Fixed
7. Vibraslap sounds piano (Guitar Pro app sounds bass drum?).
See 5
8. Some text isn't imported (e.g. Verse 1).
Fixed

For import and export filters it's a lot easier to deal with a small example. So if you find something not working as expected, and you own GP, please create a small sample.
