Sheet Music
Our AI technology picks out the notes from your audio and intelligently notates them on a musical staff, automatically detecting a wide range of musical features including time and key signature, trills, staccato, and other expressive markings.
Sheet music is especially valuable for classically trained musicians, music students, music teachers, and composers.

Piano Roll
One of our output types is a MIDI file. Our interactive piano roll displays this file in a beautiful way, allowing you to visualize the notes as they fall on the piano keyboard.
This is best for musicians who may not have a lot of experience reading other notation formats, such as sheet music.

Control the speed, transposition, colors, and more.
Export as a MIDI file for use in your DAW.
Guitar Tabs
We're able to detect the notes from your acoustic guitar audio and notate them as guitar tabs, showing you exactly which finger to use for each note. At the moment, we only support standard tuning.
Perfect for guitarists who want to know exactly how to play a song.

"There are so many songs I've wanted to play but could never find the sheet music for. Songscription finally solves that problem; now I can just run the audio through and start playing."

" I've composed a song that has lived in my heart for years - a deeply personal piece that I've never been able to share properly. Thanks to Songscription, I've finally translated it into sheet music. Now my composition can be performed and appreciated beyond just my own playing - a dream I've had since I first wrote those notes."
Tony

Yes! Songscription offers a generous free tier, providing up to ten 3-minute transcriptions each month, and unlimited 30-second transcriptions. This tends to be enough for most users. If you want to transcribe more songs or create longer transcriptions, you can upgrade to our Plus or Pro subscription at any time. For full details, see our pricing page.
We currently support direct transcription for piano, acoustic guitar, bass guitar, flute, violin, and trumpet. When you choose direct transcription, our AI tries to extract ONLY that instrument from your uploaded audio and ignores the rest of the arrangement as much as possible. We can also create a piano arrangement for any song.
We're actively working to add more instruments. If we support a similar-sounding instrument, you can try selecting it to see how well our system performs on your audio. If you'd like to help us offer support for your instrument sooner by contributing example recordings, please get in contact.
Our fully in-house AI models are trained specifically for musical transcription. They analyze your audio, isolate the notes for your instrument, and convert them into precise music notation. The transcription process, which usually takes hours, can now be completed in just a few minutes.
Our transcription technology is incredibly accurate for single-instrument recordings, particularly piano. For recordings with many other instruments or unclear audio conditions, the accuracy may vary. We're continuously improving our models to handle more complex audio conditions and generate more accurate notation.
You can download your transcription in PDF, MusicXML, MIDI, and Guitar Pro format. You can also view the MIDI notes as a piano roll on our platform.
