MIDI is a paid export
Free is a 30-second preview tier. Pianist and Composer unlock MIDI along with MusicXML, PDF, Numbered Notation, and Piano Roll.
Audio to MIDI
Audio to MIDI
Song2Notation transcribes piano audio into a structured score draft and can export MIDI on paid plans. MIDI here is a performance-style note event file derived from the transcription, useful in a DAW after you review the draft.
Using the MIDI export
Review the score first
Check Sheet Music and Piano Roll before you rely on the MIDI in a DAW. Timing and voicing may still need cleanup.
Piano-first source
Clean solo piano remains the best input. This is not a general-purpose converter for every instrument mix.
Supported formats and limits
These limits match the live upload and plan rules. Free is a 30-second preview. Paid plans unlock longer files and MusicXML, MIDI, PDF, Numbered Notation, and Piano Roll access.
File formats
Upload MP3, WAV, M4A, AAC, FLAC, WEBM, MP4, or MOV. Browser recording and supported public YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok links use the same transcription job model.
Plan duration and size
Free previews the first 30 seconds and accepts files up to 25 MB. Pianist allows files up to 6 minutes and 150 MB. Composer allows files up to 15 minutes and 500 MB.
Best source material
Clean solo piano recordings are the strongest fit. Dense mixes, vocals, drums, and noisy audio usually need cleaner input and more human editing.
What the draft is for
Song2Notation generates an AI-editable draft. Export MusicXML to continue in MuseScore, Sibelius, Finale, or Dorico. It is not publication-grade engraving.
