drums2midi
Turn drum audio into MIDI.

drums2midi listens to a drum performance and writes it out as clean, editable MIDI you can drop into your DAW. It is available to everyone and needs no account. It is released under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 licence. It runs on your device: your audio never leaves it.

Its drum-transcription model is the ADTOF frame-RNN by Mickaël Zehren, Marco Alunno and Paolo Bientinesi (github.com/MZehren/ADTOF), licensed under the same terms. We converted the weights to ONNX to run on your computer; that is the only change to the model. The front end and peak picking follow their method.
