Convert WAVE to MIDI, MP3 to MIDI converter for live performance, making multi-track MIDI files, transcribing music, and finding chord names from multi-instrument WMA, WAVE, and MP3 files.

MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) files are fundamentally different from audio files.  Audio files are the computer equivalent of recording tape and capture all the elements of the original performance, including the singer’s voice, percussion, and specific instruments.  MIDI files do not actually contain any sounds.  They merely specify what notes are to be played and when, at a certain loudness level.  The sounds you hear when playing back a MIDI file are generated by your computer’s sound card.   Therefore, the same MIDI file will sound different from one computer to another according to the sound card.  Also, MIDI files cannot recreate sung or spoken words or non-musical sounds.

In spite of these limitations, MIDI files have several advantages over audio files. For one thing, they are very compact, even smaller than MP3 and WMA files.  But most importantly, you can do things with MIDI files that are impossible with audio files.  Using a MIDI notation program (such as Anvil Studio which is included with intelliScore), you can see the notes that are present in the music.  You can add, remove, and change individual musical notes.  You can change the instrument to use when playing the notes.  Therefore, MIDI files are useful for transcribing and arranging music.

If you want to transcribe or arrange a recorded piece of music but do not have a MIDI file for it, this is where intelliScore can help.  IntelliScore Ensemble is the only product in the world that can listen to a musical audio file (CD, WAV, MP3, WMA) comprised of several different instruments and convert it to a multiple track MIDI file containing the notes played, broken down by instrument.  The process intelliScore uses to determine the notes played is extremely complex, and although we continually improve upon it, is not yet completely accurate.  Therefore, you may want to clean up the results using a MIDI editor (such as Anvil Studio, which is included with intelliScore).  Nevertheless, often you can save time by using intelliScore to create an initial MIDI file and clean up the results than to transcribe entirely by hand.
