Wind2Notes
Wind2Notes uses AI to transcribe brass and woodwind audio into sheet music.
What Wind2Notes is
Wind2Notes uses AI to transcribe brass and woodwind audio into sheet music. You can provide a recording by uploading an MP3, WAV, MP4, MIDI, or FLAC file, pasting a YouTube link, or recording in the app. Listed instruments include trumpet, flute, saxophone, clarinet, trombone, recorder, French horn, oboe, tuba, and bassoon. Wind2Notes says it can separate and transcribe individual wind parts in recordings with multiple instruments. Its editor lets you adjust notes and rhythms, and a Piano Roll view helps identify notes interactively. Exports include PDF sheet music, quantized or unquantized MIDI, and MusicXML for use in notation software such as MuseScore, Sibelius, or Finale. The service is available on web, Android, and iOS. A repeatable demo transcribes up to 20 seconds without signup. Wind2Notes Pro lists 50 full transcriptions per month, each up to 15 minutes; it costs $14.99 per month or the listed equivalent of $6.24 per month with annual billing. Klangio recommends clean recordings with little background noise and separate instruments where possible.
