Melody to MIDI
Turn a melody line into MIDI.

Sing, hum, whistle or play one note at a time. Record it or drop in an audio file, and Melody to MIDI writes the notes for you. It runs in your browser: your recordings and files are analysed on your own computer and are not uploaded.

Good to know

  • Vibrato and small pitch wobbles are smoothed, so one sung note becomes one MIDI note. Loudness becomes velocity.
  • More controls: noise gate, vibrato smoothing, an optional scale lock and the tempo the notes are written at.
  • It follows one note at a time: a single voice or one instrument. It does not split chords or full mixes.
  • Clean, close-miked recordings give the best results.
