A research team of telecommunications engineers from the Universidad de Jaén in Jaen, Spain, have created a new way to transcribe music into individual notes. POPSCI reports described the new automated system as “determines the spectral pattern of an instrument’s musical notes. The pattern is used to create a harmonic dictionary, which is paired with a pattern algorithm. The system then determines which note is which, and converts the information into a readable format. Given a WAV file of a recording, the software can produce a MIDI transcription.” Simply put, your input is normal audio music, and the output is a fully transcribed music sheet. Various applications of this new method include areas of research on older music pieces. Although midi transcription technology is hardly new, this method is different in the sense that it creates its dictionary of sounds – learning as it analyzes more. The current model is limited only to one instrument at a time, but the engineers of the University of Jaen at working to expand to software to include transcribing multiple instruments at a time.
