Transcription software that turns live performances into MIDI in real time and transcribes audio recordings to MIDI, MusicXML and MXL.

Transkr detects notes, polyphony, melody, chords, bass notes, key, beat and meter and exports the results as MIDI, MusicXML or MXL. In real time, it turns guitar, bass, voice, piano, violin and saxophone into a MIDI controller without a hexaphonic pickup or proprietary hardware. Guitar and bass are covered in the greatest depth, including fretboard and fingering estimation, chord autocomplete, slash chords, Drop D tuning and adjustable concert pitch from 400 to 450 Hz. For file conversion, tempo, time signature and key can be set manually, and automatic model tuning makes calibration easier.
