Hi,

i'm looking for a good .wav file to midi converter. Been struggling to find a good one online. Tested a few but all came out as terribly jumbled

Does anyone have a proven software to recommend?

it's only needed for 1 sound : piano

Thank You

Digital Ear getting good review, not sure if the free trial could pull off the job.

So far this is the only one. I'm scared to purchase leh

bump. looking for one to convert wav > midi > guitar pro tabs as well for my patreon

maybe u can try Audacity?

under file> import midi

no i mean im in the same boat as u, looking for software to convert isolated audio file into midi file, not the other way around

btw your keyboard/ piano don't have midi output?

can u play the piano? or got the notation?
if so, why dont just program straight into midi?

acoustic piano. not those electronic ones . my objective is to get a music sheet out of the midi file so i can play after tat.

Oh! maybe i didn't mention clearly wat i actually wan in my 1st post. 1000 apologies

Thr are certain youtube vids tat i like very much, but unfortunately, thr r no music sheet available online.

so 1stly, i use a youtube to MP3 converter software to obtain an MP3 file. Easy.

2ndly, i use another software to convert MP3 to .wav format. Again no issues. the sound quality is maintained.

3rdly, i'm looking for a reliable software to convert frm .wav to midi. Herein lies my problem . After every conversion/transcribing process, the midi sounds way off .

4th & final step : i oredi have a software called 'midisheetmusic'. it converts midi files into piano sheet music. i've tested it by inputting some ready made midi files (of other samples) & it comes out alright.

unfortunately i can't get past step 3. the filtering process leaves much to be desired where midi converters are concerned. & i'm only converting piano sounds ( a single instrument ). not even trying to convert drums or a whole orchestra + singing into 1 midi file.

looks like the best u can do would be to clean up the extracted midi file in step 3.

what softwares have u already tried anyway?

quite a few free trial ones actually. i only used the default settings to 'clean up'. i'm not a professional u knw

heck, there was one software that was so bad, tat i tested it by putting in an original midi file & after conversion, it sounded worse !

i might just b tempted to purchase digital ear like one of the posters mentioned above.

zenix , the one u recommended only gave 15 secs. too short to assess. i tried the demo ver 2 wks ago. thanks anyway

ya same as me. i need to convert those midi into guitar tabs to give my patreon supporters

i thought u just wanna load a sample

If the result is good/near accurate u could just split your mp3/wav to 15 sec each to get a full song

Ha Ha Ha Ha! Cheater u! but tat wil demand lots of work for a 4 min+ song. Heh!
