How it works

01

Upload the song

Drop an MP3 or WAV of the song. For the cleanest result, use an instrumental or an isolated stem rather than a dense full mix. No account needed to convert and preview.

02

Preview and fine-tune

Review the transcription on a piano roll, compare it to the original, and adjust sensitivity or minimum note length before re-transcribing.

03

Download MIDI or sheet music

Download the MIDI for your DAW, edit notes on the roll, or export MusicXML/PDF sheet music for notation software.

Getting usable MIDI from a song

  • Isolate the part you actually want — a melody, bassline, or single instrument transcribes far better than everything at once.
  • If you only have the full mix, expect extra notes from drums and layered instruments and plan to clean them up.
  • Vocal-only or lead-only stems (from a stem separator) give the cleanest single-line transcriptions.
  • Treat the output as a scaffold: re-instrument it, fix the wrong notes, and build your arrangement from there.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert a full song to MIDI?

Yes, but a full mix contains many overlapping instruments, so the transcription will include extra notes. For a clean result, transcribe an instrumental, a stem, or an isolated part.

Will it separate the instruments for me?

No — the transcriber detects notes from whatever audio you give it. If you need per-instrument MIDI, split the song with a stem separator first, then transcribe each stem.

Is the song to MIDI converter free?

Yes. Conversion and browser preview are free with no account required. Signing in saves results to your history and unlocks editing and sheet music export.

What can I do with the MIDI afterward?

Import it into any DAW to re-instrument or remix, edit it in the built-in piano-roll editor, or export it as sheet music.
