.Wav to Midi Convertor

Post by sega » Fri Apr 21, 2006 11:42 am

Hi

Don't know whether anyone has tried one of these or could recommend a good one for me?

I've found this one on the net http://www.intelliscore.net/ but don't know whether it would deal with progressive / breakbeat / house that well.

Any sugesstions would be appreicated :D

Basically, audio to midi converters doesn't work. Or not very well at least. If you have a single solo well defined instrumental line it might give you useful results. Perhaps.

But forget about trying to use one one a mix. With percussion. 8O

depends - if you're looking for melody yes, but what about rhythm?

If you are trying to extract a rythm, something like KTDrumTrigger might do the trick:

I've no idea how well it will work on a full mix. Probably will depend a lot on the source material.

Celemony melodyne is gorgious for monophonic audio;
and have very interesting functions: for exp, copy the pitch data of a piano, paste it on a percussion rythm... you control your audio as if it was midi
also yummy timestretch in it 8)
