Extract editable notes from audio

Upload MP3 or WAV to turn pitch, melody, and rhythm from a recording into standard MIDI you can keep working with.

  • Upload MP3 or WAV audio directly
  • Create MIDI that opens in your usual music software
  • Review the conversion in a piano roll
B

Fine-tune the result while it is in front of you

Stay on the same page to audition the MIDI, inspect its notes, and re-transcribe with adjusted settings when the source needs another pass.

  • Play back and inspect the generated piano roll
  • Adjust settings and re-transcribe the source
  • Download MIDI for your DAW, notation, or practice app
C

Hear MIDI in a different voice

Render MIDI to MP3 with a built-in or uploaded SoundFont, so you can audition the same phrase with a different instrument character.

  • Render .mid and .midi files to MP3
  • Use a built-in SoundFont or bring your own library
  • Upload SF2 and SF3 SoundFont files

Questions before rehearsal

A few things to know before converting.

Audio-to-MIDI identifies musical information; it is more than renaming a file. These are the questions worth answering first.

Bring the next melody into your workflow.

Upload a recording and get MIDI you can arrange, notate, or practice. No software to install, and free during the initial release.
