take a WAV file and convert it into MIDI

The best one I found, and "play with" is TS-Audio-to-Midi. It is a pay-for windows program, and it works under wine. It will convert a monophonic(1 instrument) wav pretty well, and you can "whistle a tune" and assign the track to a instrument.

Otherwise, you get ALOT of tiny sound artifacts, which you need to manually cleanup. The artifacts are generated by the complex wave interactions between the different instruments.

But, if you can get "studio tracks" for a recording, where the different players all have a separate track, you could quite effectively convert each track separately, then combine them into a quality midi.

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. flash japh

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
