Get TranskrFrom Audio to Editable Musical Structure
Infer pitch, melody, harmony and metric structure from recordings.
Transcribe recordings into editable sheet music in MusicXML or MXL format.
Why spend hours transcribing songs by ear when technology can do the hard work for you? As a professional musician and bandleader, I often dedicate countless hours to transcribing and writing sheet music instead of creating music.
Transkr has significantly reduced this workload by allowing me to play my guitar directly into my DAW and import MIDI files into my notation software. I had been searching for similar hardware solutions, but with Transkr I do not need to modify my guitar with expensive pickups or learn proprietary MIDI software. I simply plug my guitar into an audio interface, and Transkr translates it into MIDI in real time.
I cannot explain the magic behind the algorithm, but it accurately tracks notes, chords and even beats, and it works with virtually any guitar. Remarkable.

Get Pitch PerfektDo you also struggle with programming MIDI parts on a keyboard? Coming up with melodies on a keyboard can be difficult if it is not your main instrument. You may have the perfect melody in your head and be able to hum it, yet still find it challenging to translate it onto a keyboard.
Pitch Perfekt is particularly useful in these situations, allowing you to sing into your microphone and convert your voice to MIDI in real time. You can then load your favourite synth or sampled instrument and use your voice as a MIDI controller.
It is an exciting way to capture musical ideas — almost like a voice memo app with direct MIDI transcription. It is clear that a great deal of thought and work has gone into it.
