Piano Conversion

[Mr. SATURN]

Wow, this is probably the dumbest question I've ever asked- but here goes:

Is there any way to take an Mp3 recording of piano, and automatically translate it into a sheet, or midi form?

That would be REALLY farfetched program at any rate.

I belive there are some programs that can convert one notes into midi and/or even simple polyphony but I think they're all pretty primative and unreliable. I haven't tried any.

well, then you can also open the frequency analyzer in any audio editor and use it to guess the notes.

here is a "C" (~130.8 Hz) from djpretzel's Hillbilly Rodeo:

There are programs that do this, but as said, they dont work very well.

I downloaded this and raped a few songs. The polyphony was better then I thought but the monophony was a waste. If you had a monophonic sound you could have processed it through the polyphony anyway. The sound through had lag, and you have to buy it to save the midi sounds so I guess it's only fun for 5 minutes, unless you want to burn cash on this product, well 34.99 isn' much for a program but I'd rather rent video and buy pizza or something.

My lazyness loses once again. Looks like a few extra hours at the computer for me!
